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 Capricorn · house 1

    The drive to be someone in particular, 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.

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 7

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 2

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 9

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 2

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 8

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Scorpio · house 10

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    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 Capricorn · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In bearing and first impression.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury Mars · sextile, orb 0.04°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Sun True Node · sextile, orb 0.27°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  3. Moon Lilith · opposition, orb 0.39°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Jupiter Lilith · trine, orb 0.56°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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

  5. Pluto MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.75°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

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

  6. Moon Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.96°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

The year ahead · 88 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 →
