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 Scorpio · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  2. Moon in Aries · house 12

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

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

  3. Mercury in Scorpio · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  4. Venus in Sagittarius · house 8

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

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

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 4

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 10

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

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

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 7

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Aries · house 12

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 1

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Libra · house 6

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 12

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Sagittarius · house 7

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

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.00°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.

  2. Chiron MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.07°

    The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Mercury Pluto · opposition, orb 1.18°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.

  4. Saturn Pluto · opposition, orb 1.18°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.

  5. Uranus AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.74°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Moon Jupiter · square, orb 1.45°

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

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

The year ahead · 83 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 →
