Where everything is

The Moon is a waxing crescent, growing in the evening sky.

Sun is at 4°43′ Leo in the tropical zodiac, 10°30′ Cancer in the sidereal, gate 31 line 3 in Human Design. The tradition associates Sun with authority, health and where one stands on one's own account.

Moon is at 8°08′ Virgo in the tropical zodiac, 13°56′ Leo in the sidereal, gate 40 line 3 in Human Design. The tradition associates Moon with mood, appetite and what is needed rather than wanted.

Mercury is at 12°15′ Leo in the tropical zodiac, 18°02′ Cancer in the sidereal, gate 33 line 5 in Human Design, and retrograde; a Mercury retrograde is read as a fortnight or so of things going back for a second look: messages, plans, paperwork. The tradition associates Mercury with talking, writing, negotiating and the paperwork nobody enjoys.

Venus is at 25°46′ Gemini in the tropical zodiac, 1°34′ Gemini in the sidereal, gate 12 line 4 in Human Design. The tradition associates Venus with relationship, comfort, money and taste.

Mars is at 23°32′ Virgo in the tropical zodiac, 29°20′ Leo in the sidereal, gate 6 line 1 in Human Design. The tradition associates Mars with effort, friction and the willingness to force a thing through.

Jupiter is at 10°44′ Cancer in the tropical zodiac, 16°32′ Gemini in the sidereal, gate 39 line 2 in Human Design. The tradition associates Jupiter with growth, teaching and the widening of things.

Saturn is at 1°46′ Aries in the tropical zodiac, 7°33′ Pisces in the sidereal, gate 25 line 4 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 0°47′ Gemini in the tropical zodiac, 6°34′ Taurus in the sidereal, gate 20 line 1 in Human Design. The tradition associates Uranus with the sudden, the unconventional and the break with what was.

Neptune is at 2°02′ Aries in the tropical zodiac, 7°50′ Pisces in the sidereal, gate 25 line 5 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 Neptune with what is blurred, longed for and dissolved.

Pluto is at 2°32′ Aquarius in the tropical zodiac, 8°19′ Capricorn in the sidereal, gate 41 line 1 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 Pluto with what is buried, and what is forced up.

Rahu is at 19°01′ Pisces in the tropical zodiac, 24°48′ Aquarius in the sidereal, gate 22 line 3 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 31, leading, line 3, the Martyr line: the gate the whole day is read through, and the line it sits on. The Moon is in gate 40, aloneness, line 3, the Martyr line, and moves on within hours. Each gate has its own page in the library: gate 31 and gate 40.

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 conjunction Neptune, 0.3° from exact and opening: the two acting as one.

Neptune sextile Pluto, 0.5° from exact and closing: an easy opening between the two.

Saturn sextile Pluto, 0.8° from exact and opening: an easy opening between the two.

Saturn sextile Uranus, 1.0° from exact and closing: an easy opening between the two.

Uranus sextile Neptune, 1.3° from exact and closing: an easy opening between the two.

Uranus trine Pluto, 1.8° from exact and closing: an ease between the two that can go unused.

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.

Why the two zodiacs disagree about everything above

Every body sits about 24 degrees earlier in the sidereal zodiac than in the tropical one.

Western astrology anchors its zodiac to the seasons and Vedic astrology to the stars, and the two have drifted 24.21 degrees apart. That is why a Western page and a Vedic one can name different signs for the same planet on the same day, and why neither is wrong. We show both, every time, and where a reading depends on which one was used we say so.

What turns in the next thirty days

28 Jul 2025: Mars enters Virgo in the sidereal zodiac.

31 Jul 2025: Venus enters Cancer in the tropical zodiac.

07 Aug 2025: Mars enters Libra in the tropical zodiac.

09 Aug 2025: full Moon.

11 Aug 2025: Mercury turns direct. The tradition reads a station direct as the body's business resuming.

23 Aug 2025: Sun enters Virgo in the tropical zodiac.

A sign change or a station is a condition beginning or ending. The tradition reads the condition; it does not read an event into it, and neither does this page.
