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 Capricorn · house 12

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  2. Moon in Gemini · house 5

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 10

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

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

  5. Mars in Pisces · house 2

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 10

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

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

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 2

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 7

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 6

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 8

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 3

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 3

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

The tightest aspects

  1. Pluto Lilith · square, orb 0.04°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  2. Jupiter AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.03°

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

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Chiron AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.14°

    The injury that becomes a competence 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.

  4. Uranus Pluto · trine, orb 0.23°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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

  5. Mercury True Node · trine, orb 0.52°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.

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

  6. Sun Pluto · opposition, orb 0.97°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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 · 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 →
