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 Virgo · house 10

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 2

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 9

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  4. Venus in Leo · house 9

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  5. Mars in Leo · house 9

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

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

  6. Jupiter in Taurus · house 7

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Virgo · house 9

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 12

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

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

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 10

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

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

  11. True Node in Gemini · house 8

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 4

    The injury that becomes a competence, 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.

  13. Lilith in Sagittarius · house 2

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Chiron AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.22°

    The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.

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

  2. Pluto MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.40°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Neptune Chiron · trine, orb 0.43°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  4. Neptune AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.65°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. True Node Lilith · opposition, orb 0.99°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

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

  6. Moon Uranus · trine, orb 1.78°

    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 · 72 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 →
