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 Virgo · house 9

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  2. Moon in Gemini · house 6

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

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

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 10

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 10

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

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

  5. Mars in Capricorn · house 12

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Libra · house 10

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 10

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In the public record of a life.

  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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  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 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 9

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

  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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  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 Pluto · trine, orb 0.21°

    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. Mars True Node · square, orb 0.31°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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. Mercury Chiron · opposition, orb 0.66°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Moon Uranus · square, orb 0.83°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

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

  5. Neptune Chiron · trine, orb 0.64°

    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.

  6. Saturn AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.10°

    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 · 79 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 →
