TOKYO GINZA Astrology "URANAI"

How to read this horoscope · Key terms

TOKYO GINZA Astrology "URANAI" is a monthly Western astrology horoscope based on Sun signs. It reads the month’s planetary movements as themes in work, love, relationships, money and daily life.

Western astrology · Tropical zodiac

The tropical zodiac places 0 degrees of Aries at the vernal equinox. These readings use its 12 signs and take the natal Sun sign as the starting point for the monthly themes. They differ from an individual natal-chart reading based on birth time and place.

A whole-sign reading from the Sun sign

The Sun sign is counted as the 1st area, followed by the remaining signs as areas of life. This differs from an individual house layout calculated from the Ascendant. Aspects in the text mainly refer to transiting planets; they do not mean that the same exact aspects apply to every reader’s natal Sun. Dates use UTC and approximate ranges to allow for local calendar differences.

Sign

One of the 12 divisions from Aries to Pisces, each covering 30 degrees of the zodiac. The tropical zodiac begins at the vernal equinox.

Sun sign

The sign occupied by the Sun at birth. Near a sign boundary, the birth year and time can affect the sign.

House

One of 12 areas used to read life themes such as work, home and relationships. These horoscopes count the Sun sign as the 1st whole-sign house.

Ascendant

The point of the zodiac rising on the eastern horizon at the time and place of birth. An individual natal chart uses it as a reference for houses.

Natal chart

A chart of planetary positions at birth, forming the basis for an individual reading using birth date, time and place.

Transit

A planet’s position or movement at the present time or during a particular period. These monthly readings follow that month’s transits.

Aspect

An angular relationship between planets along the zodiac, interpreted with the symbolism of the planets involved.

Conjunction · 0°

Planets occupy nearby positions in the zodiac. Their themes combine or become concentrated; the interpretation depends on the planets involved.

Sextile · 60°

An angle read as room to connect different themes through cooperation or experimentation, with attention to how an opportunity is used.

Square · 90°

An angle read as a need to adjust themes moving in different directions. It can be a prompt for improvement as well as friction.

Trine · 120°

An angle read as a background in which planetary themes work readily together, making use of strengths and cooperation. It does not mean results arrive automatically.

Opposition · 180°

Planets face each other across the zodiac. The reading compares two positions or needs and considers their balance.

Orb

The distance from an exact aspect angle, or the allowance used. An angle of 92 degrees differs from a square by 2 degrees. The allowance depends on the planets, aspect and method.

Retrograde and direct motion

Retrograde is apparent movement in the opposite direction along the zodiac as seen from Earth; direct motion is the usual direction. These readings treat retrogrades as themes of review rather than automatic bad luck.

Station

A period of very slow apparent movement near a change between direct and retrograde motion. The planet does not physically stop in its orbit.

New Moon and Full Moon

The Sun and Moon form a conjunction at a New Moon and an opposition at a Full Moon. Monthly readings use them as points for beginning or reviewing themes.

Ruling planet

A planet associated with a sign, such as Venus with Taurus and Libra, or Mercury with Gemini and Virgo. It is one clue to a sign’s themes.

UTC

Coordinated Universal Time, the common reference for dates and times in this series. Japan Standard Time is UTC plus 9 hours.

Future Planning Guide

A sign-by-sign guide to the six months after the current issue, offering perspectives for work, learning, travel, home and shared plans. Its period moves forward one month at a time.

この占いの読み方

TOKYO GINZA Astrology "URANAI"は、西洋占星術による太陽星座ベースの月間占いです。その月の天体の動きを、仕事、恋愛、人間関係、お金、暮らしに重なるテーマとして読み解きます。

西洋占星術・トロピカル方式

春分点を牡羊座の0度とする、12のサインを使います。一般に「牡羊座」「魚座」などと呼ぶ太陽星座を、この方式で扱います。

太陽星座ベースの月運

生まれたときの太陽の星座を起点に、その星座全体の月の流れを読みます。出生時刻・出生地を用いる個人のホロスコープ鑑定とは異なります。

太陽星座を起点にしたホールサインの読み

太陽星座を第1の領域とし、そこから12サインを一つずつ、仕事や住まい、対人関係などの生活テーマに対応させます。出生時刻から求めるアセンダントを起点にした、個人のハウス配置とは異なる読み方です。

本文に出てくるアスペクト

アスペクトは、天体同士の角度の関係です。スクエアは90度、トラインは120度、オポジションは180度を指します。単純な吉凶に置き換えず、配置が示すテーマを日常でどう扱えるかを考えます。月運の本文では主に運行中の天体同士の関係を取り上げており、読者全員の出生時の太陽へ、同じ角度が正確にできるという意味ではありません。

天体イベントの基準はUTCです。地域によって現地の暦日が異なるため、本文では「10〜11日ごろ」など、日付に幅を持たせることがあります。
