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.
☉ Sun in Taurus · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 11
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 2 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 7
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 7 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 8 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 2
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 6
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♇ Pluto in Aries · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 9
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 6
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 11
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
The tightest aspects
⚷ Chiron ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.01°
The injury that becomes a competence 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.
♃ Jupiter ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.15°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♆ Neptune ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.19°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.20°
The pull toward what has no edges 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.
♀ Venus ☍ ♄ Saturn · opposition, orb 0.45°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☉ Sun ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 0.83°
The drive to be someone in particular and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
