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 Aries · house 6

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

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 9

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 5

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

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

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 4

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, 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.

  5. Mars in Taurus · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 2

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 12

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 5

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

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

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 10

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 9

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

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

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 11

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 7

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars Neptune · square, orb 0.11°

    The capacity to want something and go at 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.

  2. Mercury MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.43°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  3. Moon Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.71°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Neptune Chiron · trine, orb 0.53°

    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.

  5. Saturn AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.83°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against 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.

  6. Mercury True Node · opposition, orb 1.05°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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 · 85 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 →
