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 signs that do not let go. One of you holds on to things, the other holds on to meanings.

How it actually goes

The axis here runs between what is yours and what is shared. Taurus builds something solid and wants it to stay solid. Scorpio wants to know what is underneath it. Put those together and you get a relationship with enormous staying power and a persistent, low argument about how much of yourselves is actually on the table.

This pairing is physical in a way neither of you will quite explain to friends, and both of you take that as evidence of something deeper than it may be. The trouble starts when Taurus treats Scorpio's intensity as drama and Scorpio treats Taurus' calm as not caring. Neither reading is right. You are both holding on just as hard, in different directions.

What each of you brings

Taurus brings a floor. You do not panic, you do not leave in a temper, and whatever is going on, dinner still happens. For somebody built like Scorpio that steadiness is worth more than you are told.

Scorpio brings the question underneath the question. You will notice what is not being said and you will not pretend otherwise, which is uncomfortable and is also the reason this relationship goes somewhere rather than settling.

The argument you will have

Money or secrets, and usually both at once, because for this pair they are the same subject. Scorpio wants everything shared and will test for it. Taurus wants some things to stay simply theirs and will dig in rather than explain why. Name it as the axis it is, once, and you will both recognise it the next time it starts.

If you are already in it

If you are already in this one, you have probably noticed that neither of you ends an argument, you just stop having it out loud. That works for about four years. The practical move is a standing hour where the thing gets said, because neither of you will raise it spontaneously and both of you will carry it indefinitely. Scorpio, stop testing. Taurus, answer the first time.

What the two charts actually say

Directly across the wheel, a hundred and eighty degrees. Each of you carries the half the other left behind. Earth and Water, which is the combination that actually grows things. The ground holds and the feeling moves through it, and this is the most underrated mix on the wheel.

Sun in Taurus about 19 April to 20 May, in Scorpio about 22 October to 21 November. Both edges move with the year.

Your Two Charts reads both charts against each other, the only honest way to look at an opposition. Taurus and Scorpio have their own pages.
