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 Aries · house 4

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  2. Moon in Leo · house 9

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  4. Venus in Aries · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 8

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 2

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 9

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 12

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 9

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 9

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 9

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

    In what is believed, and how far it is carried.

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus Saturn · square, orb 0.07°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.

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

  2. Pluto True Node · conjunction, orb 0.17°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Sun Lilith · trine, orb 0.27°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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

  4. Mars Neptune · trine, orb 0.62°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  5. Mercury Neptune · trine, orb 1.47°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  6. Pluto MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 1.50°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

The year ahead · 91 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 →
