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 Libra · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Gemini · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 3

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  5. Mars in Capricorn · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  6. Jupiter in Libra · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In the daily traffic of information.

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 10

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Libra · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 4

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 2

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 8

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Cancer · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus Chiron · opposition, orb 0.28°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence 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 Saturn · trine, orb 0.67°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.

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

  3. Mercury Chiron · opposition, orb 1.18°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Mercury Uranus · conjunction, orb 1.46°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Sun Mars · square, orb 1.86°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

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

  6. Moon Pluto · square, orb 2.15°

    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.

The year ahead · 82 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 →
