Today’s horoscope
Every day is different because the sky is different every day
The text for each sign is written overnight from where the planets stand on that day. Not from a bank of stock lines: yesterday’s and today’s do not match, because the sky moved.
Coming in from far out. From this height the stars are not single points yet — but what we actually compute rises out of them.
There it is. Eight planets, each at its true longitude — not roughly, but for this exact minute.
This circle is the zodiac. Twelve sectors of thirty degrees each, and they never change.
And these are the ten bodies, right now. Each stands at its own degree: not “in Taurus”, but in Taurus at the fourteenth degree.
The angles between them are called aspects. They — not the signs — are what makes one chart unlike another.
This sky is the same for everyone looking at it now. Yours is the same sky at the minute you were born. And then it gains an ascendant, which is missing here: it exists only for a place and a minute.
· And this is the horoscope by sign
The sky is computed right now, in your browser, from where the bodies actually stand this minute, and the words are written today from those numbers — not a month in advance.
01 In plain words
What is going on here
Planets move along orbits. Where they will be tomorrow is known in advance and computed from formulas astronomers publish openly. We take those formulas, work out the positions for this minute, and show how they fall against your sign. What you do with that is up to you.
- Take the numbers The orbital elements of the planets are a few lines of numbers that NASA JPL publishes for everyone. They are baked into this page.
- Work out where everything stands Out of those numbers comes the angle of each planet in the sky — the thing astrologers call “Mars in Gemini”. Your browser computes it in a fraction of a second.
- Look at the angles Planets form angles with each other: 0°, 60°, 90°, 120°, 180°. The forecast is assembled from those — not from the mood of whoever wrote the text.
02 The map
Here is where the planets are right now
Every planet sits on its real orbit at its real point. Switch on “As Earth sees it” and it becomes visible where the horoscope wheel comes from in the first place.
The distances are real, the planet sizes are not: at a scale where Jupiter is visible, Mercury would vanish entirely. In the whole-system view the radius is compressed logarithmically, otherwise the four inner orbits would collapse into a dot; in “as Earth sees it” the compression is switched off, so the ray to a planet passes exactly through it. The Moon is drawn near Earth schematically — its real distance is under a pixel at this scale — but the phase is real.

04 Tarot
Card of the day
The classic Rider–Waite deck, seventy-eight cards. The card of the day is the same for everyone, because it is drawn from the Moon’s longitude at midnight — a property of the day, not of the person.

Personal spreads — three arcana weighted by your natal chart and your question — are computed in the reading, higher up this page.

05 Reading table
You decide what the reading is made of
You put in the centre whatever should go into the work: today’s sky, the card of the day, three arcana, a life sphere, the horoscope. The composition is visible from the start — no “leave your email first, find out what is inside later”.

06 Readings
A reading is about your chart and one question
A horoscope is computed for a sign: twelve texts for the whole world. A reading is computed for the minute and the place you were born — for a chart nobody else has.
07 Verification
NASA JPL publishes the orbital elements. This page computes the positions from them.
Nothing is fetched and no request goes anywhere — open the inspector and see for yourself. The elements are baked into the page, and your browser computes the positions with the same algorithms the server uses for your natal chart.

Aspects to a sign
Whole-sign. A sign is a 30° arc, not a point; asking for an orb to an arc is meaningless.
- The 2026 equinoxes and solstices — within 0.4 arc-minutes of 0°, 90°, 180°, 270°
- Mercury stations 2026 — 26 February, 29 June, 24 October, matching the published dates
- Julian Day: 2000-01-01 12:00 UT — exactly 2451545.0

08 Questions
The short answers
Where does the horoscope on this site come from?
From the positions of the planets. The page takes the orbital elements published by NASA JPL, computes where each body stands this minute, and looks at the angles those bodies make to your sign. The forecast text is selected by those angles, not written a month in advance.
Do I need to register?
No. Nothing has to be entered and nothing is sent anywhere — the whole computation happens in your browser.
How does a sign horoscope differ from a natal chart?
A sign is the thirty-degree arc the Sun stood in on the day you were born. A sign horoscope is the same for every twelfth person alive. A natal chart is computed from the minute and place of birth: where all ten bodies stood at that exact moment. That is the reading — and you can run it here, free.
What is Mercury retrograde?
The apparent backwards motion of a planet across the sky. It does not actually turn around — this is the effect of Earth overtaking it on its orbit. The page determines retrograde motion arithmetically: it compares the planet’s longitude half a day before and half a day after the current moment.
Why is the card of the day the same for everyone?
Because it is a property of the day, not of the person. The card is drawn from the Moon’s longitude at midnight of the current day, so everyone opening the site today sees one card. Personal spreads are computed in the reading — they depend on the natal chart and on the question.
09 The reading
This is what it looks like
A sign forecast is the same for every twelfth person alive. Your own reading is computed from the minute and place you were born — where all ten bodies stood at that moment, and what today’s sky is doing to them. These are screenshots of this page, not mockups.
- Natal chart Ten bodies, houses, aspects with orbs to hundredths of a degree. Every number behind every conclusion is visible.
- Tarot spreads Three arcana weighted by your chart and your question. The full 78-card deck with interpretations.
- Live sky A zodiac wheel with current positions, the Moon’s phase, retrogrades and the events coming next.
