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 Capricorn · house 10

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 12

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

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

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 10

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

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

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  5. Mars in Pisces · house 12

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 8

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 7

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 12

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued sympathetically, and without a firm boundary.

    In the part that operates without being watched.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 6

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 4

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 7

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 1

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In bearing and first impression.

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus Pluto · trine, orb 0.17°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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

  2. Mercury Pluto · opposition, orb 0.47°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.

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

  3. True Node AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.46°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Mercury Uranus · sextile, orb 0.64°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Mars Uranus · conjunction, orb 1.16°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Pluto Lilith · square, orb 1.07°

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

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

The year ahead · 90 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 →
