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 Cancer · house 5

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 6

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 5

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  4. Venus in Leo · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 6

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

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

  7. Saturn in Leo · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  8. Uranus in Scorpio · house 8

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Sagittarius · house 9

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Libra · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 7

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 1

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  13. Lilith in Cancer · house 5

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    In the things done because they are wanted.

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.51°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Mercury Uranus · square, orb 0.45°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

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

  3. Venus Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.65°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Mars Neptune · square, orb 0.74°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

  5. Sun Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.97°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Saturn MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.81°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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