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 Cancer · house 5

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

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

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Cancer · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 12

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Aquarius · house 11

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 6

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 8

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 6

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 12

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 7

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Saturn True Node · opposition, orb 0.15°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.

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

  2. Neptune Chiron · trine, orb 0.35°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  3. Venus Mars · square, orb 0.45°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

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

  4. Sun AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.59°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  5. Mercury Jupiter · trine, orb 0.61°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.

  6. Mercury Neptune · trine, orb 0.96°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

The year ahead · 72 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 →
