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 Aries · house 11

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 11

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Aries · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 10

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  5. Mars in Pisces · house 11

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

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

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 4

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Scorpio · house 6

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Sagittarius · house 7

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Libra · house 5

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 12

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

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

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 4

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Pluto Lilith · sextile, orb 0.06°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Mars Uranus · trine, orb 0.47°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.

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

  3. Mars Neptune · square, orb 0.58°

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

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

  4. Saturn Chiron · trine, orb 1.41°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  5. Sun AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 1.58°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Saturn AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.73°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.

The year ahead · 87 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 →
