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 Taurus · house 7

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 3

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Taurus · house 6

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  4. Venus in Gemini · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 9

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 9

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 10

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Scorpio · house 1

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Sagittarius · house 2

    The pull toward what has no edges, 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.

  10. Pluto in Libra · house 11

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 9

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Jupiter · opposition, orb 0.37°

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

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

  2. Sun AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.46°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Moon Mars · opposition, orb 0.53°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Mars Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.90°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Mercury Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.97°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Sun Saturn · trine, orb 2.00°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.

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

The year ahead · 94 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 →
