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 Scorpio · house 9

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 5

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

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

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 9

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  4. Venus in Libra · house 7

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  5. Mars in Pisces · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 10

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

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

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 8

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 1

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

    In bearing and first impression.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 6

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

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

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 5

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 6

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 2

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Gemini · house 4

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter Neptune · trine, orb 0.42°

    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.

  2. Venus True Node · sextile, orb 0.34°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Mercury AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.64°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

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

  4. Sun Moon · trine, orb 1.53°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it run together easily.

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

  5. Sun Neptune · square, orb 1.68°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

  6. Saturn AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.41°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.

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

The year ahead · 98 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 →
