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 1

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

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

  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 Libra · house 1

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

    In bearing and first impression.

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  5. Mars in Capricorn · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

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

  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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  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.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 10

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  11. True Node in Sagittarius · house 2

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Sagittarius · house 2

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Jupiter · square, orb 0.05°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.

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

  2. Venus Saturn · opposition, orb 0.20°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Saturn Pluto · trine, orb 0.18°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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

  4. Venus Pluto · sextile, orb 0.38°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Moon Mercury · opposition, orb 0.68°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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 · trine, orb 0.58°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

The year ahead · 82 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 →
