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 Capricorn · house 9

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 9

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 9

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 10

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 7

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  7. Saturn in Sagittarius · house 8

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

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

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  9. Neptune in Aquarius · house 10

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

  10. Pluto in Aries · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 11

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 3

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter Uranus · trine, orb 0.22°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.

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

  2. Pluto AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.26°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.

  3. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.56°

    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.

  4. Saturn Pluto · trine, orb 0.82°

    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.

  5. Pluto MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.82°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.

  6. Saturn AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.08°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.

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

The year ahead · 93 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 →
