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 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 2

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

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

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 1

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

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

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Aquarius · house 3

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Virgo · house 10

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 1

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In bearing and first impression.

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 10

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 9

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 4

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 11

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    Among the people chosen rather than given.

The tightest aspects

  1. Pluto AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.23°

    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.

  2. Jupiter Uranus · opposition, orb 0.53°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Moon Pluto · square, orb 0.88°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.

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

  4. Sun Moon · sextile, orb 1.15°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Neptune AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.36°

    The pull toward what has no edges 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. Saturn True Node · opposition, orb 1.68°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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 · 86 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 →
