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 Aquarius · house 5

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  2. Moon in Aries · house 7

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  3. Mercury in Aquarius · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  4. Venus in Aries · house 7

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 6

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

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

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 8

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

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

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 12

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

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

    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 expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  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 Venus · conjunction, orb 0.20°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Saturn True Node · square, orb 0.32°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

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

  3. Neptune Chiron · square, orb 0.41°

    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.

  4. Sun MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.96°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  5. Pluto AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.57°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.90°

    The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

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

The year ahead · 90 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 →
