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 10

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

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

  2. Moon in Aries · house 11

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 10

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  4. Venus in Aries · house 10

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

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

  5. Mars in Aries · house 10

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.

    In the public record of a life.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 8

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

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

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 12

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 4

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 2

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 11

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Sagittarius · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter Lilith · sextile, orb 0.28°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Mercury Uranus · square, orb 0.50°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

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

  3. Sun Chiron · trine, orb 0.57°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  4. Neptune Pluto · sextile, orb 0.38°

    The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Mars AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.92°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

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

  6. Uranus Lilith · square, orb 1.26°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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 · 89 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 →
