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 Taurus · house 5

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  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 Taurus · house 5

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

  4. Venus in Taurus · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  5. Mars in Sagittarius · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  6. Jupiter in Libra · house 10

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 10

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 8

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 8

    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.

  11. True Node in Libra · house 10

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In the public record of a life.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 4

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 3

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

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.14°

    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.

  2. Pluto True Node · square, orb 0.25°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

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

  3. Sun Pluto · sextile, orb 0.53°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Saturn AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.51°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Moon Jupiter · trine, orb 0.90°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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. Mars MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.20°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

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

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 →
