Where everything is

Moon is at 11°30′ Aries in the tropical zodiac, 17°19′ Pisces in the sidereal, gate 21 line 3 in Human Design. The tradition associates Moon with mood, appetite and what is needed rather than wanted.

Saturn is at 18°45′ Aquarius in the tropical zodiac, 24°34′ Capricorn in the sidereal, gate 13 line 6 in Human Design, and retrograde; a Saturn retrograde is read as structure being tested from the inside. The tradition associates Saturn with structure, limit, work and time.

Uranus is at 18°06′ Taurus in the tropical zodiac, 23°56′ Aries in the sidereal, gate 2 line 6 in Human Design, and retrograde; an outer planet is retrograde for months at a time; the tradition reads it as the theme turned inward. The tradition associates Uranus with the sudden, the unconventional and the break with what was.

Rahu is at 13°31′ Taurus in the tropical zodiac, 19°20′ Aries in the sidereal, gate 2 line 1 in Human Design. The tradition associates the nodes with appetite and the unfamiliar; Ketu, opposite it, detachment and endings.

In Human Design

The Sun is in gate 57, intuitive insight, line 2, the Hermit line: the gate the whole day is read through, and the line it sits on. The Moon is in gate 21, the hunter, line 3, the Martyr line, and moves on within hours. Each gate has its own page in the library: gate 57 and gate 21.

The Moon's line changes, 9 October 2022, UTC

Times in UTC. A line is a sixth of a gate, a little under a degree; the Moon crosses one every hour or two. Where the Sun's gate is the day's theme, the tradition reads the Moon's as the hour's, and neither is a forecast.

Tight aspects at noon

Saturn square Uranus, 0.6° from exact and opening: friction between the two, which is where the work is.

Mars square Neptune, 0.8° from exact and closing: friction between the two, which is where the work is.

Within two degrees of exact, one for the Moon. Closing means the aspect is still tightening; opening means it has passed. The slow pairs stay for weeks and the Moon's pass in hours.
