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 Gemini · house 8

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 2

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

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

  3. Mercury in Gemini · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 8

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 10

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  6. Jupiter in Aries · house 6

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  7. Saturn in Cancer · house 8

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  8. Uranus in Aquarius · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 9

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 8

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    Where things are held in common, and where they end.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 4

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

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

  13. Lilith in Cancer · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun Moon · opposition, orb 0.33°

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

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

  2. Saturn AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.69°

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

  3. Jupiter MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.74°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  4. Jupiter True Node · square, orb 1.09°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

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

  5. Moon Chiron · square, orb 1.51°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  6. Sun Chiron · square, orb 1.84°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

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 →
