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 Sagittarius · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Scorpio · house 3

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 4

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

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

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 3

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

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

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 7

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 8

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 1

    The pull toward what has no edges, 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.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Sagittarius · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 10

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Sagittarius · house 3

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.

    In the daily traffic of information.

The tightest aspects

  1. Lilith MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.18°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.

  2. Saturn Chiron · square, orb 1.21°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  3. Saturn Pluto · trine, orb 1.59°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against 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.

  4. Sun True Node · conjunction, orb 2.26°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Neptune AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.95°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.77°

    The face a life presents before it says anything 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.

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 →
