The sky, computed

Saturday, 17 June 2023 · Tucson

  1. 1New moon, 21:37 TucsonSun and Moon at the same degree. Traditionally a beginning: a seed set in the dark, not yet visible.
  2. 2Saturn stations retrogradeSaturn appears to stop and move backward against the stars, an effect of where Earth stands. Traditionally a turn inward for what Saturn stands for: review, redo, reconsider.
  3. 3Venus sextile Mercury, exact todayVenus and Mercury about 60 degrees apart. Traditionally an opening between what they stand for, one that has to be taken up to count. Exact today.
  4. 4Pluto sextile Neptune, applying, 2.24° from exactPluto and Neptune about 60 degrees apart. Traditionally an opening between what they stand for, one that has to be taken up to count. Still approaching exact.
  5. 5Neptune square Sun, applying, 1.30° from exactNeptune and Sun about 90 degrees apart. Traditionally friction between what they stand for, the kind that asks for work. Still approaching exact.
  6. 6Saturn sextile Jupiter, applying, 0.36° from exactSaturn and Jupiter about 60 degrees apart. Traditionally an opening between what they stand for, one that has to be taken up to count. Still approaching exact.
  7. 7Neptune square Moon, exact todayNeptune and Moon about 90 degrees apart. Traditionally friction between what they stand for, the kind that asks for work. Exact today. With the Moon it lasts hours, not days: traditionally the day's mood rather than its theme.
  8. 8Mars sextile Moon, exact todayMars and Moon about 60 degrees apart. Traditionally an opening between what they stand for, one that has to be taken up to count. Exact today. With the Moon it lasts hours, not days: traditionally the day's mood rather than its theme.
  9. 9Sun conjunction Moon, applying, 4.61° from exactSun and Moon at the same degree of the sky. Traditionally a blending: what the two stand for acts as one thing. Still approaching exact. With the Moon it lasts hours, not days: traditionally the day's mood rather than its theme.

Every event of this civil day, from the positions of the planets, by the same ephemeris her readings run on: lunations with their times, stations, ingresses, and the aspects in orb, ranked for attention. Nothing here is interpreted. Each plain line is tradition’s gloss of that kind of event, not a reading of the day or of anyone.

How she reads

She reads a real chart, computed, for a named person on a date, and a card the machine drew that she cannot take back; every reading names one thing to watch for, and later she asks whether it happened.
