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 Capricorn · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Leo · house 10

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 3

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

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

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  5. Mars in Sagittarius · house 2

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  6. Jupiter in Leo · house 9

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 1

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

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

  8. Uranus in Scorpio · house 1

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In bearing and first impression.

  9. Neptune in Gemini · house 8

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 8

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

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 4

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Libra · house 12

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 5

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury Lilith · sextile, orb 0.17°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Mars Neptune · opposition, orb 0.32°

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

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

  3. Moon Chiron · sextile, orb 0.35°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Pluto MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.47°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Uranus Lilith · trine, orb 1.23°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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

  6. Mercury Uranus · sextile, orb 1.39°

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

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

The year ahead · 88 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 →
