Dream Reading

Tell it what you dreamt, then choose whose tradition reads it: Thai, Chinese, Islamic or Hindu. Four of the oldest systems for reading a dream, and four different answers to the same night.

How it works

A reading of your own in four steps, and most of them are one answer.

1. ChoosePick a reading. Ten of them run all the way through for nothing.
2. Add detailsA birth date, a question, or a photograph of your hand. Never an account.
3. Get your readingComputed in this page, in a few seconds, from the real sky.
4. Come backThe sky moves. Most of these say something different tomorrow.

Real insights, for a more meaningful you

Ancient wisdom for modern life.

HalfKnown works the old methods properly: the actual positions of the planets at the minute you were born, the cards you actually drew, the creases actually on your hand. Nothing is a prediction, and every page says so.

Two people who both think about fairness, one as a feeling in the room and one as a principle.

How it actually goes

Air and air, Venus and Uranus. Libra wants everybody comfortable and Aquarius wants the arrangement to be right, and those overlap often enough that this is an unusually civilised pairing. Neither of you is possessive and neither needs the other to be conventional.

The gap is intimacy. Libra keeps things pleasant and Aquarius keeps things at a distance, and the combination is a relationship that looks admirable from outside and can be curiously empty inside. Neither of you is withholding on purpose. Both of you are simply waiting for the other to go first, politely, for years.

What each of you brings

Libra brings warmth into the arrangement. Aquarius can design a perfectly fair life with nobody in it, and you are the one who keeps the people in view.

Aquarius brings the backbone. Libra defers, and you will not, and having somebody nearby who simply does not bend is more useful to a Libra than agreement ever is.

The argument you will have

Civil to a fault. Nobody raises their voice, nobody says the ugly true thing, and both of you leave the conversation feeling it went well while nothing has changed.

If you are already in it

If you are already in this one, take it in turns to say something unreasonable and true, out loud, once a week. Both of you are so committed to being fair that neither has said what they actually want in about four years. The second thing is jealousy, or rather the complete absence of any sign of it. Neither of you will ever admit to wanting reassurance, and both of you want it, and in this pairing it has to be offered because it will never be requested.

What the two charts actually say

A hundred and twenty degrees, a trine. Same element, smoothest angle there is, and it asks nothing of either of you. One Cardinal, one Fixed. One of you starts and the other will not be rushed, which is either a very good split of the work or the whole problem.

Sun in Libra about 22 September to 22 October, in Aquarius about 19 January to 18 February. Both edges move with the year.

Your Two Charts is where an easy pairing gets interesting. Libra and Aquarius have their own pages.
