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 Pisces · house 1

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 11

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 12

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

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

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  5. Mars in Libra · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius · house 12

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 4

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 7

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 6

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 1

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Sagittarius · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  13. Lilith in Taurus · house 2

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.10°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Sun MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.23°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

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

  3. Moon Mars · trine, orb 0.24°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.

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

  4. Neptune Pluto · sextile, orb 0.39°

    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.

  5. Moon Lilith · square, orb 1.82°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  6. Sun Chiron · square, orb 1.85°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

The year ahead · 81 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 →
