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 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 Capricorn · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In bearing and first impression.

  4. Venus in Aries · house 1

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 1

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued sympathetically, and without a firm boundary.

    At the threshold, before anything is said.

  7. Saturn in Sagittarius · house 10

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 1

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 7

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Cancer · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 2

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

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

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 7

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

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.76°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  2. Mars MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.06°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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. Uranus Lilith · opposition, orb 1.22°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Sun Saturn · square, orb 1.46°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.

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

  5. Venus Mars · sextile, orb 0.99°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Mercury Uranus · conjunction, orb 1.88°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

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 →
