Reading

Constructed, not stored: each reading below is assembled from what the tradition attributes to the body, the sign and the house. It describes the symbolism — it is not a claim about a person, and unlike the positions it sits beside, none of it is something this site can check.

  1. Sun in Virgo · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Libra · house 3

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 4

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 6

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 4

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 9

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 1

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 12

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 10

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury Jupiter · trine, orb 0.36°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  2. Mars Uranus · opposition, orb 0.98°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  3. Moon MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.55°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  4. Venus True Node · square, orb 1.40°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  5. Mercury Saturn · sextile, orb 1.19°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Jupiter Pluto · opposition, orb 1.74°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
