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 Sagittarius · house 1

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

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

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

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 3

    What makes you feel safe.

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 1

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 2

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  5. Mars in Capricorn · house 1

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In bearing and first impression.

  6. Jupiter in Leo · house 9

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 2

    The strict teacher you thank later.

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  8. Uranus in Aries · house 4

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 9

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 8

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 4

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

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

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 6

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 4

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.

    In the foundations, where the line comes from.

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun Moon · sextile, orb 0.02°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Saturn Pluto · opposition, orb 0.09°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Venus Uranus · square, orb 0.11°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.

  4. Moon Jupiter · opposition, orb 1.30°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.

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

  5. Uranus Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.11°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Sun Jupiter · trine, orb 1.32°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available 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 →
