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 6

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

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 9

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Aries · house 6

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  4. Venus in Pisces · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 9

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

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

  6. Jupiter in Taurus · house 6

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  7. Saturn in Cancer · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    In what is believed, and how far it is carried.

  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 12

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Scorpio · house 1

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In bearing and first impression.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.

    In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 6

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.20°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.

  2. Sun Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.31°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Mars Pluto · square, orb 0.73°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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.

  4. Saturn Chiron · square, orb 0.92°

    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.

  5. Jupiter AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.34°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  6. Moon Lilith · square, orb 1.71°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

The year ahead · 95 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 →
