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 Capricorn · house 4

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Pisces · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 1

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 5

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

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

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 7

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 11

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 10

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Sagittarius · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 2

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Saturn · square, orb 0.08°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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. Neptune Chiron · square, orb 0.07°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  3. Sun Neptune · trine, orb 0.48°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  4. Moon Chiron · opposition, orb 0.80°

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

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

  5. Moon Neptune · square, orb 0.74°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

  6. Saturn Neptune · opposition, orb 0.82°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.

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

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 →
