Aries

Quincunx

An awkward angle, adjustment without a clean answer. Something does not fit and cannot be forced into fitting today.

Love
Something does not fit and cannot be forced into fitting today.
Money & career
An awkward number that will not reconcile. Leave it open.
Health & energy
Something is off and no amount of effort settles it. Rest.

Taurus

Trine

The flowing angle, and it suits you completely. Comfort and progress in the same direction for once. Ease is not the same as significance; aim it.

Love
Comfort and closeness in the same direction. Enjoy it without improving on it.
Money & career
Conditions favour the slow build. Put something in today. Ease is not significance; aim it.
Health & energy
Energy and appetite agree. A good day for the long habit.

Gemini

Square

The hard angle. Two things you have been holding apart collide, and the day requires you to pick one.

Love
Two things you held apart collide. Pick one rather than explaining both.
Money & career
An obstacle you will try to talk around. Deal with it directly.
Health & energy
Nervous tension needs discharging physically, not verbally. Discharge it rather than carrying it home.

Cancer

Sextile

An easy angle. Support is available and you will not ask for it. Ask. An open door still has to be walked through.

Love
Support is available and you will not ask. Ask. Open doors still need walking through.
Money & career
An easy opening, offered by somebody who likes you. It will not wait to be evaluated.
Health & energy
Rest comes easily today if you allow it. Allow it.

Leo

Semisextile

One sign along. A small correction to how you are coming across, which is easier now than after. Small corrections are cheap now and expensive later.

Love
A small correction to how you come across, easier now than later.
Money & career
One figure needs adjusting rather than the whole ambition. Correct it before it compounds.
Health & energy
Change one habit rather than announcing a new regime. One change, held for a week.

Virgo

Conjunction

The driver is in your own sign, which sharpens everything including the criticism. Aim it at the work rather than the people.

Love
Everything sharpens, including the criticism. Aim it at the work, not the person.
Money & career
Decide alone today. The analysis is already sufficient. Your own call, your own risk.
Health & energy
Everything is amplified, including the worry. Put the list down.

Libra

Semisextile

One sign along. A small imbalance worth correcting before it becomes the arrangement. Small corrections are cheap now and expensive later.

Love
A small imbalance worth correcting before it becomes the arrangement.
Money & career
One figure needs adjusting. Do it rather than deferring again.
Health & energy
Change one habit rather than balancing four. One change, held for a week.

Scorpio

Sextile

An easy angle. Something you wanted comes without a manoeuvre. Take it plainly. An open door still has to be walked through.

Love
Something you wanted arrives without a manoeuvre. Take it plainly.
Money & career
An easy opening, genuinely. No angle is required today. It will not wait to be evaluated.
Health & energy
Movement comes easily. Use it rather than banking the energy.

Sagittarius

Square

The hard angle. The freedom you assumed is not available and arguing will not restore it. Work inside the limit.

Love
The freedom you assumed is not available. Work inside the limit.
Money & career
An obstacle where enthusiasm is not the instrument. Bring detail.
Health & energy
Tension from being penned in. Get outside rather than arguing.

Capricorn

Trine

The flowing angle. Long work and current conditions agree, so push the thing that needed both. Ease is not the same as significance; aim it.

Love
Long work and current conditions agree. Push the thing needing both.
Money & career
Conditions favour the long build. Put something in today. Ease is not significance; aim it.
Health & energy
Energy is steady and durable. A good day for the regime.

Aquarius

Quincunx

An awkward angle. Something cannot be made consistent today. Let it be inconsistent and useful. Adjustment without resolution is the whole shape of it.

Love
Something cannot be made consistent. Let it be inconsistent and useful.
Money & career
A figure that will not reconcile. Leave it rather than modelling it.
Health & energy
Something is off and no framework fixes it. Rest. Rest is the answer, not effort.

Pisces

Opposition

Across the wheel. Somebody wants a definite answer. Give one, even a provisional one, rather than a mood. The other position is a real one, held by somebody.

Love
Somebody wants a definite answer. Give one, even provisional. Their position is real and held.
Money & career
A negotiation where a mood is not a position. Name the number.
Health & energy
Giving and resting are opposed. Take the rest. Choose rather than splitting the difference.

For your Chinese animal

The same reading, taken through each animal of the Chinese zodiac.

Rat

A 1 rewards the first move made alone, which is where you are most capable and least comfortable being seen. Start it quietly and let people find out afterwards. The Rat's advantage is noticing the opening early, and it expires the moment somebody else notices it too.

Ox

Beginning is the one thing your patience works against. A 1 does not wait for conditions and neither should you. Start something small enough that beginning it costs nothing, and let your persistence do what it always does once the thing is moving.

Tiger

Your instinct and this number agree completely: go first, without permission. The only caution is that a 1 opens a sequence rather than settling anything, so what you start today will still need you in March, when the excitement has entirely gone.

Rabbit

A 1 asks you to move before the ground is safe, which is not how you prefer to work. Take one step that can be walked back if it goes badly. Reversibility is what makes a beginning possible for you at all.

Dragon

Beginnings suit you and this one comes without an audience. Start the thing you have not announced. The Dragon's difficulty with a 1 is confusing the declaration with the act, and a 1 counts only the second of those.

Snake

You will know exactly where to begin and will want another week of watching first. A 1 gives you the read you needed some time ago. Move on it now, quietly, before the situation changes shape and you have to start the analysis again.

Horse

Starting is easy and choosing is not. A 1 opens one road rather than several, so pick the one you would still want in six months and refuse the rest today, plainly, before your enthusiasm commits you to all of them.

Goat

A 1 asks you to begin without company, which is the arrangement you like least. Do it anyway. Something started alone now becomes the thing others join later, and joining is much easier for people than founding.

Monkey

Cleverness gets you the opening and only persistence keeps it. A 1 hands the Monkey an obvious advantage and an obvious trap: you will have begun four things by evening and finished none. Choose one before lunch.

Rooster

You want the plan complete and the schedule written before anything starts. A 1 does not work that way. Begin at seventy percent, correct as you go, and accept that the tidy version was never going to survive first contact.

Dog

You will start when somebody needs you to, and a 1 asks you to start for yourself. Notice the difference today. Something you want, rather than something you owe, and begun without waiting for anyone to ask.

Pig

Begin it before you feel ready, because you will not feel ready. A 1 rewards the definite first step over the long preparation, and the Pig's warmth makes it easy to keep preparing in good company indefinitely.
