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 Leo · house 8

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 8

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

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

  3. Mercury in Cancer · house 8

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  4. Venus in Leo · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  5. Mars in Libra · house 11

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  6. Jupiter in Aries · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.

  7. Saturn in Cancer · house 8

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

    Where things are held in common, and where they end.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 6

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  9. Neptune in Pisces · house 3

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 5

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  11. True Node in Aries · house 4

    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 Aquarius · house 2

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun Lilith · sextile, orb 0.02°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Saturn Lilith · square, orb 0.55°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against 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.

  3. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.42°

    The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Mercury MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.70°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Jupiter Saturn · square, orb 1.05°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  6. Mercury AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.12°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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 · 82 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 →
