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 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 3

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

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

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 4

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  5. Mars in Libra · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In the daily traffic of information.

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

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

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 10

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Libra · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 4

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.

    In the foundations, where the line comes from.

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 2

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 7

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. True Node MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.21°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Mars Neptune · sextile, orb 0.92°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Neptune Pluto · sextile, orb 1.10°

    The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Mars Pluto · conjunction, orb 2.02°

    The capacity to want something and go at 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.

  5. Neptune True Node · square, orb 1.70°

    The pull toward what has no edges 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.

  6. Moon Jupiter · trine, orb 2.38°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.

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

The year ahead · 87 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 →
