The ukulele is back

Uranus, your ruling planet, is retrograde in Gemini, in the part of your chart about fun, and it has a friendly angle to Pluto in your sign. In plain words: an odd old interest of yours is back, and this time you mean it. The telescope, the ukulele, the language you gave up at lesson nine. Get it down from the shelf. Mars and Jupiter are in Leo, in your partner corner, and Mars is square Mercury, which is backing up through your career corner. So the person closest to you has an opinion about your work, and they keep repeating it. They may be right about one part. Find out which part over dinner.

Worked out for noon UTC, and dates are UTC days. Houses count from your sign, so they say nothing about your own birth chart. An R means the planet looks like it is moving backward. How we calculate
