Beyond the planets
What’s this?Close
Points read beside the planets. The rising sign, or Ascendant, is the sign coming up over the eastern horizon at the minute of birth: the first impression. The Midheaven is the highest point of the sky: career and public life. The North Node is where the Moon’s path crosses the Sun’s: the direction a life grows in. Chiron, a small body between Saturn and Uranus, is a lifelong sore spot and the gift it leaves for others. Black Moon Lilith, where the Moon’s orbit swings farthest from Earth, is what a person keeps untamed.
North Node in Gemini
The direction his life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.
22°43′
Chiron in Libra
In Libra, Chiron is a soft spot around being chosen and kept, and a gift for making others feel met as equals.
17°45′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
27°37′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
Patterns
What’s this?Close
When several aspects lock into one shape, such as a triangle or a cross, the planets in it act together, and the shape says how: easily, under strain, or with one planet as the focus.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his identity (the Sun in Aries) and his optimism (Jupiter in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and his drive (Mars in Cancer) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

Aspects by strength
What’s this?Close
An aspect is a set angle between two bodies in the sky at birth. Some angles flow, some rub, and some fuse two bodies into one. The number is how far the angle is from exact: the smaller it is, the stronger the link.
Only the aspects that held from the first minute of the day to the last are shown; each figure is for noon.
The Moon square North Node almost exact at 0.1°
Home comforts and the way forward ask for different things, and growing means leaving some familiar things behind.
Jupiter trine North Node almost exact at 0.3°
Hope helps him grow: faith in what is possible keeps him moving forward.
The Sun sextile North Node almost exact at 0.5°
The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.
The Sun opposition Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Venus square Pluto close at 1.3°
Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.
Mercury trine Mars close at 2.4°
A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.
