Where everything is

The Moon is waning gibbous, past full and rising later each night.

Sun is at 1°29′ Taurus in the tropical zodiac, 7°05′ Aries in the sidereal, gate 3 line 6 in Human Design. The tradition associates Sun with authority, health and where one stands on one's own account.

Moon is at 0°40′ Sagittarius in the tropical zodiac, 6°16′ Scorpio in the sidereal, gate 34 line 1 in Human Design. The tradition associates Moon with mood, appetite and what is needed rather than wanted.

Mercury is at 4°35′ Aries in the tropical zodiac, 10°12′ Pisces in the sidereal, gate 17 line 1 in Human Design. The tradition associates Mercury with talking, writing, negotiating and the paperwork nobody enjoys.

Venus is at 18°10′ Pisces in the tropical zodiac, 23°47′ Aquarius in the sidereal, gate 22 line 2 in Human Design. The tradition associates Venus with relationship, comfort, money and taste.

Mars is at 8° Cancer in the tropical zodiac, 13°37′ Gemini in the sidereal, gate 52 line 5 in Human Design. The tradition associates Mars with effort, friction and the willingness to force a thing through.

Jupiter is at 21°47′ Cancer in the tropical zodiac, 27°23′ Gemini in the sidereal, gate 62 line 2 in Human Design. The tradition associates Jupiter with growth, teaching and the widening of things.

Saturn is at 9°43′ Virgo in the tropical zodiac, 15°20′ Leo in the sidereal, gate 40 line 5 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 20°21′ Cancer in the tropical zodiac, 25°57′ Gemini in the sidereal, gate 53 line 6 in Human Design. The tradition associates Uranus with the sudden, the unconventional and the break with what was.

Neptune is at 28°54′ Aries in the tropical zodiac, 4°30′ Aries in the sidereal, gate 3 line 3 in Human Design. The tradition associates Neptune with what is blurred, longed for and dissolved.

Pluto is at 24°01′ Aquarius in the tropical zodiac, 29°37′ Capricorn in the sidereal, gate 49 line 6 in Human Design. The tradition associates Pluto with what is buried, and what is forced up.

Rahu is at 13°04′ Cancer in the tropical zodiac, 18°41′ Gemini in the sidereal, gate 39 line 4 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 3, ordering, line 6, the Role Model line: the gate the whole day is read through, and the line it sits on. The Moon is in gate 34, power, line 1, the Investigator line, and moves on within hours. Each gate has its own page in the library: gate 3 and gate 34.

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

Jupiter conjunction Uranus, 1.4° from exact and opening: the two acting as one.

Mars sextile Saturn, 1.7° from exact and closing: an easy opening between the two.

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 24.39 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

02 May 2038: Venus enters Aries in the tropical zodiac.

04 May 2038: new Moon.

08 May 2038: Mercury enters Aries in the sidereal zodiac.

11 May 2038: Saturn turns direct. The tradition reads a station direct as the body's business resuming.

12 May 2038: Mercury enters Taurus in the tropical zodiac.

15 May 2038: Sun enters Taurus in the sidereal zodiac.

20 May 2038: Mars enters Cancer in the sidereal zodiac.

21 May 2038: Sun enters Gemini 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.
