Reading

Put together from what the tradition attributes to each body, sign and house — a portrait to enjoy, not a verdict. The positions beside it are the part that can be checked.

  1. Sun in Aquarius · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 1

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  3. Mercury in Aquarius · house 6

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  4. Venus in Sagittarius · house 4

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

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

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 4

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 10

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 7

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  8. Uranus in Capricorn · house 5

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 11

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 10

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 11

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued independently, and slightly against the grain.

    In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.

  13. Lilith in Gemini · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus Neptune · opposition, orb 0.04°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.

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

  2. Mars MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.27°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Sun Mercury · conjunction, orb 0.69°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Pluto Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.73°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Sun Chiron · conjunction, orb 1.03°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Mercury Chiron · conjunction, orb 1.72°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

The year ahead · 92 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 →
