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 Aries · house 1

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 7

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  3. Mercury in Aries · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  4. Venus in Taurus · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  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 Gemini · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 11

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  8. Uranus in Aries · house 1

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In bearing and first impression.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 7

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 5

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  11. True Node in Taurus · house 2

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 2

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.

    In the matter of keep and livelihood.

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Saturn Uranus · square, orb 0.03°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

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

  2. Jupiter MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.57°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public 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 Chiron · trine, orb 0.73°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  4. Venus Lilith · square, orb 1.12°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  5. Mars Pluto · trine, orb 1.22°

    The capacity to want something and go at 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.

  6. Sun Pluto · square, orb 2.08°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

The year ahead · 89 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 →
