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 Leo · house 11

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 3

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 10

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  5. Mars in Taurus · house 8

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 3

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 7

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 11

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

    Among the people chosen rather than given.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 10

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

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

  11. True Node in Cancer · house 10

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    In the public record of a life.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 8

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus Uranus · trine, orb 0.23°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.

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

  2. Mars Lilith · trine, orb 0.46°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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

  3. Pluto True Node · conjunction, orb 0.49°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Sun Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.82°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.98°

    The face a life presents before it says anything 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. Mercury Mars · square, orb 1.21°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it 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 →
