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 Pisces · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 5

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

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

  3. Mercury in Aquarius · house 5

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

  5. Mars in Pisces · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 8

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 12

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 11

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 4

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury Lilith · trine, orb 0.32°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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

  2. Saturn Chiron · square, orb 0.46°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  3. Saturn True Node · sextile, orb 0.49°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Jupiter AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.09°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

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

  5. Venus Mars · sextile, orb 0.97°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Venus Pluto · opposition, orb 1.80°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.

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

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 →
