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 Aquarius · house 7

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 7

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

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

  3. Mercury in Aquarius · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Sagittarius · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  5. Mars in Pisces · house 8

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 8

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

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 10

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

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

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 12

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 6

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter Neptune · square, orb 0.21°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

  2. Pluto AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.34°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.

  3. Mars Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.82°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Jupiter MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.70°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  5. Sun Lilith · trine, orb 1.12°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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

  6. Sun Uranus · square, orb 1.18°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

The year ahead · 82 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 →
