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 Cancer · house 4

    The drive to be someone in particular, 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.

  2. Moon in Libra · house 7

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  3. Mercury in Cancer · house 5

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  4. Venus in Leo · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  5. Mars in Capricorn · house 11

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

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

  7. Saturn in Leo · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  9. Neptune in Pisces · house 1

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 2

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

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

  11. True Node in Aquarius · house 11

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 12

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In bearing and first impression.

The tightest aspects

  1. Lilith AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.05°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Jupiter Neptune · trine, orb 0.21°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  3. Mars Neptune · sextile, orb 0.36°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Mars Jupiter · opposition, orb 0.58°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.

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

  5. Sun Moon · square, orb 0.97°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it obstruct each other.

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

  6. Moon True Node · trine, orb 1.19°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.

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

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 →
