Reading

Put together from what the tradition attributes to each body, sign and house — a portrait to enjoy, not a verdict. The positions beside it are the part that can be checked.

  1. Sun in Aquarius · house 11

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Gemini · house 2

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

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

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 10

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  4. Venus in Aries · house 12

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

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

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 2

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 8

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 2

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.

    In the matter of keep and livelihood.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Aries · house 12

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

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

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 1

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.

  11. True Node in Scorpio · house 6

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 12

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 6

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. True Node AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.45°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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.

  2. Mars Neptune · sextile, orb 0.52°

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

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Sun Moon · trine, orb 0.93°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it run together easily.

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

  4. Uranus Lilith · square, orb 1.46°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  5. Jupiter Lilith · square, orb 1.86°

    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.

  6. Chiron MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.42°

    The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

The year ahead · 89 exact contacts

Every moment a slower body makes an exact aspect to this chart, solved to the minute in UT. Mars outward only — the Sun alone would perfect seventy-five of these a year and the Moon nine hundred, which is noise rather than a forecast. A contact marked 2 of 3 perfects more than once because the transiting body stations while inside orb. On orbs and exactness →
