The sky, computed
Thursday, 26 October 2023 · Tucson
- 1Jupiter opposition Mars, applying, 1.54° from exactJupiter 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.
- 2Mars conjunction Mercury, applying, 2.57° from exactMars and Mercury at the same degree of the sky. Traditionally a blending: what the two stand for acts as one thing. Still approaching exact.
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.
