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 Taurus · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  2. Moon in Libra · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Taurus · house 5

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Aries · house 4

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  8. Uranus in Libra · house 10

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Gemini · house 6

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 6

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  11. True Node in Gemini · house 6

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.

    In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Leo · house 8

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 9

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

The tightest aspects

  1. True Node MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.03°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  2. Pluto AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.20°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Jupiter Lilith · opposition, orb 0.70°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Mercury Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.52°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Neptune True Node · conjunction, orb 0.73°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Neptune MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.71°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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