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 Leo · house 7

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  2. Moon in Taurus · house 3

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 7

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

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

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  5. Mars in Libra · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 1

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 8

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 6

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 8

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 2

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

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

  12. Chiron in Sagittarius · house 11

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Taurus · house 4

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

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Lilith AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.38°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn 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. Mercury Jupiter · opposition, orb 0.59°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Sun Moon · square, orb 0.65°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it obstruct each other.

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

  4. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.52°

    The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Lilith MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.89°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.

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

  6. Venus Saturn · sextile, orb 0.85°

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

The year ahead · 85 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 →
