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 Aries · house 5

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 4

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  3. Mercury in Aries · house 5

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Pisces · house 4

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

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

  5. Mars in Leo · house 10

    The capacity to want something and go at it, 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.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 7

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 7

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  9. Neptune in Pisces · house 4

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued sympathetically, and without a firm boundary.

    In the foundations, where the line comes from.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 6

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  11. True Node in Gemini · house 7

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Capricorn · house 3

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

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

  13. Lilith in Cancer · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus Lilith · trine, orb 0.17°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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

  2. Uranus AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.33°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.

  3. Venus True Node · square, orb 0.66°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

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

  4. Pluto Lilith · sextile, orb 0.51°

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

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Moon Neptune · conjunction, orb 1.03°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Venus Pluto · sextile, orb 0.68°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

The year ahead · 81 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 →
