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 Gemini · house 11

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  3. Mercury in Taurus · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  4. Venus in Aries · house 10

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

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

  5. Mars in Capricorn · house 6

    The capacity to want something and go at 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.

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 12

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

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

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 8

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  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.

  9. Neptune in Aquarius · house 6

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    In the part that operates without being watched.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 10

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars Saturn · sextile, orb 0.12°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Sun Neptune · trine, orb 0.40°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  3. Sun AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.79°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Neptune AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.20°

    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.

  5. Moon Chiron · trine, orb 1.53°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  6. Moon Uranus · trine, orb 1.53°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.

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

The year ahead · 84 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 →
