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 Cancer · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 11

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Aries · house 12

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 12

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 5

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 3

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

    In the daily traffic of information.

  11. True Node in Scorpio · house 6

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 2

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  13. Lilith in Capricorn · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun True Node · trine, orb 0.06°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  2. Mercury Saturn · trine, orb 0.25°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.

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

  3. Moon True Node · trine, orb 0.36°

    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.

  4. Sun Moon · trine, orb 0.42°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it run together easily.

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

  5. Venus Chiron · sextile, orb 0.39°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Mercury Uranus · square, orb 0.90°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works 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 →
