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 Scorpio · house 12

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 1

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

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

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

    In bearing and first impression.

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 1

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

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

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 2

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 11

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

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

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    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 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.

  11. True Node in Cancer · house 8

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 4

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Neptune Chiron · trine, orb 0.02°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  2. Sun Neptune · square, orb 0.06°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

  3. True Node MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.22°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Moon AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.82°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.

  5. Jupiter Saturn · sextile, orb 1.63°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Sun True Node · trine, orb 2.72°

    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.

The year ahead · 82 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 →
