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 1

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

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

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 4

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

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

  3. Mercury in Cancer · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In bearing and first impression.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 1

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    At the threshold, before anything is said.

  5. Mars in Libra · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 6

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Leo · house 2

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  8. Uranus in Libra · house 5

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

  9. Neptune in Gemini · house 12

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

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

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 12

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

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

  11. True Node in Leo · house 2

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 12

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  13. Lilith in Taurus · house 11

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.19°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Sun Venus · conjunction, orb 0.37°

    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.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Mercury Uranus · square, orb 1.70°

    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.

  4. Neptune True Node · sextile, orb 1.12°

    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 Pluto · square, orb 2.11°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.

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

  6. Neptune MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.84°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

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

The year ahead · 91 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 →
