Aries
Trine
The flowing angle. Energy moves your way with no resistance, so the only question worth asking is whether you have aimed it.
- Love
- Warmth flows without a fight for once. Say out loud that you noticed.
- Money & career
- Conditions favour you. Spend the ease on the thing that needed both.
- Health & energy
- Energy is abundant, which is when you overreach. Pace it.
Taurus
Quincunx
An awkward angle. Something does not sit right and cannot be resolved by waiting it out, which is your usual method.
- Love
- Something is uneven and cannot be levelled today. Leave it uneven.
- Money & career
- A figure that will not reconcile. Waiting will not resolve it either.
- Health & energy
- Something is off and rest is the only useful response.
Gemini
Opposition
Across the wheel. Somebody states the opposite case, well. Hear it rather than out-talking it. The other position is a real one, held by somebody.
- Love
- Somebody argues the opposite well. Hear it rather than out-talking it.
- Money & career
- A negotiation where your fluency is not the asset. Bring the figures.
- Health & energy
- Stimulation and rest are opposed. Choose rest at least once.
Cancer
Quincunx
An awkward angle. Something does not fit and the discomfort is not a sign you did wrong. Adjustment without resolution is the whole shape of it.
- Love
- Something does not fit and the discomfort is not a verdict on you.
- Money & career
- A figure that will not reconcile. Leave it open today.
- Health & energy
- Something is off and rest is the answer rather than effort.
Leo
Trine
The flowing angle, and it is your best weather. Generosity, warmth and recognition move together. Ease is not the same as significance; aim it.
- Love
- Generosity and recognition move together. Enjoy it without arranging it.
- Money & career
- Conditions favour the visible move. Make it today. Ease is not significance; aim it.
- Health & energy
- Energy is high and steady. A good day for the demanding thing.
Virgo
Square
The hard angle. Something is imperfect and cannot be fixed today. Tolerating that is the whole exercise. Friction is information rather than a verdict.
- Love
- Something is imperfect and cannot be fixed today. Tolerating that is the exercise.
- Money & career
- An obstacle that will not yield to more preparation. Act anyway.
- Health & energy
- Tension is in the body rather than the thinking. Move it.
Libra
Sextile
An easy angle. Agreement is available without your brokering it. Accept it rather than improving on it. An open door still has to be walked through.
- Love
- Agreement is available without your brokering it. Accept it as it is.
- Money & career
- An easy opportunity. It will not wait for you to weigh it.
- Health & energy
- Movement comes easily. Take it without scheduling it. Take it while it is easy.
Scorpio
Semisextile
One sign along. A small shift under the surface. You will notice it before it becomes visible to anyone else.
- Love
- A small shift under the surface, noticed by you before anybody else.
- Money & career
- One figure needs correcting quietly rather than a whole renegotiation.
- Health & energy
- Adjust one habit rather than overhauling in secret. One change, held for a week.
Sagittarius
Conjunction
The driver is in your own sign. Everything expands, including the promises. Say less than you feel and mean all of it.
- Love
- Everything expands, including the promises. Say less and mean all of it.
- Money & career
- Back your own move today rather than joining the expedition.
- Health & energy
- Appetite is amplified. Enjoy it and notice the second helping.
Capricorn
Semisextile
One sign along. A small structural correction, cheap now and expensive later. Small corrections are cheap now and expensive later.
- Love
- A small structural correction, cheap now and expensive later. Small now, awkward later.
- Money & career
- One figure needs fixing before it compounds. Correct it before it compounds.
- Health & energy
- Change one habit rather than restructuring the whole regime. One change, held for a week.
Aquarius
Sextile
An easy angle. Somebody understands what you meant without the full explanation. Use that. An open door still has to be walked through.
- Love
- Somebody understands without the full explanation. Use that. Open doors still need walking through.
- Money & career
- An easy opportunity. Take it rather than examining the structure.
- Health & energy
- Movement comes easily. Do something physical rather than theoretical. Take it while it is easy.
Pisces
Square
The hard angle. Something requires a hard edge and you would rather dissolve than draw one. Draw it. Friction is information rather than a verdict.
- Love
- Something requires a hard edge and you would rather dissolve. Draw it.
- Money & career
- An obstacle that vagueness will not get past. Be specific.
- Health & energy
- Tension you have absorbed from elsewhere. Put it down. Discharge it rather than carrying it home.
For your Chinese animal
The same reading, taken through each animal of the Chinese zodiac.
Rat
A 7 asks you to stop gathering and start understanding, which are different activities you have been treating as one. Close the sources. What you already know about this situation is sufficient, and the missing piece is thinking rather than more input.
Ox
Stillness comes naturally and solitude does not always follow it. A 7 wants you genuinely alone rather than quietly present while others work. Take the hours properly, without leaving yourself available at the edge of them.
Tiger
Withdrawal is the opposite of every instinct you have, and it is the whole assignment. The answer you have been charging at arrives once you stop charging. Cancel one thing today and sit with the problem instead.
Rabbit
A 7 gives you permission for the retreat you would have taken anyway, and asks you to use it rather than simply enjoy it. Come back with something worked out, not just rested.
Dragon
No audience, no applause, only understanding. This is among the harder numbers for you and among the more useful. What you work out privately today is worth more than the version you would have performed.
Snake
Your number completely. Perception with the noise removed. The only caution is that a 7 wants understanding rather than advantage, so resist converting the insight straight into a position. Your reading of it is already good. Acting on it is the missing half.
Horse
Stillness reads as confinement to you. Go somewhere alone rather than staying somewhere alone; the movement can be part of it, provided the company is not. Walk somewhere far and alone, and let the answer arrive without being chased.
Goat
A 7 asks you to consult nobody, which removes your usual method entirely. Sit with your own read of it. The view assembled from everyone else's opinions is an average rather than an answer.
Monkey
Boredom is the hazard, since a 7 produces nothing you can show anybody. Give yourself a problem worth the solitude, or you will invent one in somebody else's business by mid-afternoon. Solitude with a problem in it, rather than solitude looking for one.
Rooster
Analysis without correction is the exercise. A 7 offers insight and you will want to turn it immediately into a list of things that should be different. Understand it first and leave the list for tomorrow.
Dog
You will feel the quiet as neglect of somebody. It is not. A 7 asks you to be off duty for a few hours, and nothing you are guarding will come apart in that time.
Pig
Permission for the solitude you usually feel guilty about taking. Use it, and bring one concrete thing back, because a whole day of drifting pleasantly leaves nothing behind. Come back with one concrete thing, or the day dissolves pleasantly into nothing.
