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 Cancer · house 8

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  2. Moon in Gemini · house 7

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 9

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  4. Venus in Gemini · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  5. Mars in Capricorn · house 2

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 8

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 4

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  8. Uranus in Capricorn · house 2

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 8

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

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

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 8

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  11. True Node in Cancer · house 9

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Cancer · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Chiron AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.31°

    The injury that becomes a competence 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.

  2. Uranus Lilith · opposition, orb 0.50°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Mars Neptune · opposition, orb 0.58°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Sun Mars · opposition, orb 1.55°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it face each other across the chart.

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

  5. Venus MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.02°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Venus Saturn · square, orb 1.58°

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

The year ahead · 88 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 →
