The sky, computed

Friday, 18 August 2023 · Tucson

  1. 1Neptune opposition Mars, applying, 2.68° from exactNeptune and Mars about 180 degrees apart. Traditionally a face-off between what they stand for, asking for balance rather than a winner. Still approaching exact.
  2. 2Uranus trine Mercury, applying, 2.30° from exactUranus and Mercury about 120 degrees apart. Traditionally an easy flow between what they stand for. Still approaching exact.
  3. 3Jupiter square Venus, applying, 2.14° from exactJupiter and Venus about 90 degrees apart. Traditionally friction between what they stand for, the kind that asks for work. Still approaching exact.
  4. 4Uranus trine Moon, exact todayUranus and Moon about 120 degrees apart. Traditionally an easy flow between what they stand for. Exact today. With the Moon it lasts hours, not days: traditionally the day's mood rather than its theme.
  5. 5Mars conjunction Moon, applying, 2.79° from exactMars 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.
