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 Libra · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Leo · house 12

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

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

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 3

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 1

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 8

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 2

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

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

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 12

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

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

  11. True Node in Sagittarius · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 3

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Saturn Neptune · opposition, orb 0.42°

    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.

  2. Mars Uranus · trine, orb 0.59°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.

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

  3. Chiron AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.83°

    The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Moon Uranus · square, orb 1.61°

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

  5. Venus MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 2.01°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.

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

  6. Jupiter Neptune · square, orb 1.89°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

The year ahead · 84 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 →
