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 Pisces · house 5

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

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

  2. Moon in Aries · house 6

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Aries · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  5. Mars in Capricorn · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  6. Jupiter in Leo · house 10

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 5

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

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

  8. Uranus in Aries · house 6

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.

    In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.

  9. Neptune in Pisces · house 4

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

  10. Pluto in Aries · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  12. Chiron in Scorpio · house 2

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  13. Lilith in Sagittarius · house 2

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.63°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

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

  2. Mercury Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.97°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Saturn Chiron · trine, orb 1.33°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  4. Moon Jupiter · trine, orb 1.67°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.

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

  5. Sun Lilith · square, orb 1.75°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  6. Mars Chiron · sextile, orb 1.25°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

The year ahead · 100 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 →
