- 1Venus enters Libra, leaving VirgoVenus crosses from Virgo into Libra. Traditionally a change of manner, not of subject: the same planet, working in a new style.
- 2Pluto trine Venus, exact todayPluto and Venus about 120 degrees apart. Traditionally an easy flow between what they stand for. Exact today.
- 3Pluto trine Uranus, applying, 2.80° from exactPluto and Uranus about 120 degrees apart. Traditionally an easy flow between what they stand for. Still approaching exact.
- 4Neptune sextile Uranus, applying, 1.86° from exactNeptune and Uranus about 60 degrees apart. Traditionally an opening between what they stand for, one that has to be taken up to count. Still approaching exact.
- 5Neptune square Mars, applying, 2.81° from exactNeptune and Mars about 90 degrees apart. Traditionally friction between what they stand for, the kind that asks for work. Still approaching exact.
- 6Saturn trine Moon, exact todaySaturn 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.
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.
