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 Pisces · house 7

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  3. Mercury in Scorpio · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 6

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  6. Jupiter in Leo · house 12

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

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

  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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Capricorn · house 5

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 11

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 11

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Cancer · house 11

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Cancer · house 11

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    Among the people chosen rather than given.

The tightest aspects

  1. Saturn Lilith · trine, orb 0.58°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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

  2. Moon Venus · trine, orb 0.95°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near run together easily.

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

  3. Venus Mars · square, orb 0.92°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.

  4. Sun Lilith · square, orb 1.39°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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. Mercury Neptune · trine, orb 1.31°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  6. Chiron MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.21°

    The injury that becomes a competence 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 · 87 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 →
