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 Gemini · house 11

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 2

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

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

  4. Venus in Libra · house 4

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  5. Mars in Libra · house 4

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  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 Sagittarius · house 5

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  11. True Node in Libra · house 4

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In the foundations, where the line comes from.

  12. Chiron in Sagittarius · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars Lilith · opposition, orb 0.56°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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.

  2. Moon Neptune · sextile, orb 1.01°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Venus AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.62°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

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

  4. Neptune True Node · sextile, orb 1.05°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Moon True Node · trine, orb 2.06°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.

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

  6. Moon Uranus · square, orb 2.38°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
