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 Gemini · house 5

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 8

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  3. Mercury in Taurus · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.

  4. Venus in Gemini · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

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

  5. Mars in Leo · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  6. Jupiter in Leo · house 8

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

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

  7. Saturn in Gemini · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 5

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.

    In the things done because they are wanted.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  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 Cancer · house 7

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Virgo · house 8

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.

    Where things are held in common, and where they end.

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.09°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Sun Uranus · conjunction, orb 0.33°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  3. Venus Neptune · trine, orb 0.57°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  4. Moon Uranus · square, orb 1.01°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

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

  5. Uranus Chiron · square, orb 0.92°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  6. Sun Chiron · square, orb 1.25°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

The year ahead · 90 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 →
