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 Sagittarius · house 5

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  3. Mercury in Scorpio · house 5

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

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

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  5. Mars in Sagittarius · house 6

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  6. Jupiter in Taurus · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Sagittarius · house 5

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 12

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Aries · house 10

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 11

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 1

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Saturn Neptune · trine, orb 0.43°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  2. True Node Chiron · trine, orb 0.41°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  3. Chiron AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.49°

    The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.

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

  4. Venus Neptune · square, orb 0.67°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

  5. True Node AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.90°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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.

  6. Venus Pluto · trine, orb 1.03°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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

The year ahead · 86 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 →
