Area by area

What lifts youOthers

What holds you backWork

You

The Moon carries your sign today. Your mood is simple, and small things are enough to make a good day. Treat yourself, it's the right day for it.

  • Moon · trine

The Sun is at a difficult angle to your sign. Confidence wobbles, and your eyes drift to what others are doing. Do one thing for yourself, with no audience.

  • Sun · opposition

Saturn is in your sign, for two and a half years. It weighs on you, and confidence is earned slowly, but it holds better. Aim far, not fast.

  • Saturn · conjunction
  • in the background, for months

Love

The Moon carries your sign today. You take people as they are, and it shows. Tell someone why you like them.

  • Moon · trine

Work

Saturn is in your sign, for two and a half years. Work asks more of you, and results take their time. Pick one thing to build slowly, and stick with it.

  • Saturn · conjunction
  • in the background, for months

The Sun is at a difficult angle to your sign. What you show gets little response, and recognition is slow to come. Work on what doesn't show.

  • Sun · opposition

Energy

The Sun is at a difficult angle to your sign. Everything costs a bit more than usual, and drive doesn't come on its own. One thing finished today is enough.

  • Sun · opposition

Mars is at a good angle to your sign. Getting started costs less, and your body follows without a fight. Tackle the painful part first, it'll go down easier.

  • Mars · trine

Others

The Moon carries your sign today. Company does you good, and the words come easily. Invite someone for coffee, no excuse needed.

  • Moon · trine

Jupiter carries your sign, for months. There's goodwill all around you, and what you do with others moves forward. Ask for a hand without waiting.

  • Jupiter · trine
  • in the background, for months

  3. 18 Sun3.5/10

What about you?

How it's scored

At noon, we look at which sign each of the seven classical planets is in (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn), and the angle it makes with each sign: trines and sextiles lift, squares and oppositions slow, and with a conjunction it depends on the planet.

Each area only counts the planets tradition links to it: Venus for love, Mercury and Saturn for work, Mars and the Sun for energy, the Moon and Jupiter for others, the Sun and the Moon for you. Otherwise, the calculation is the same as for the sign's score.

A sign is a twelfth of humanity: this score holds for everyone who shares it. Your own daily sky, calculated on your whole chart, is more accurate.
