Planets

What’s this?Close

The ten bodies astrology reads: the Sun, the Moon and eight planets. The planet says which part of a person it speaks for, the sign says how that part behaves, and the house says where in life it shows.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Capricorn, Chiron and Lilith
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 Capricorn

    The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.

    25°57′

  • Chiron in Capricorn

    In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.

    17°25′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Libra

    In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.

    6°41′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

PatternsStellium
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.

Stellium

Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.

In his chart, his identity, his mind, his heart and his discipline (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Aspects by strength16 between the planets, the closest first
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 Sun sextile North Node almost exact at 0.1°

    The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.

  • Jupiter trine Neptune almost exact at 0.2°

    Faith and imagination together: he believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.2°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • Jupiter sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.4°

    Ambition with depth: he knows how to build influence, and he uses it to make big changes.

  • The Sun square Pluto almost exact at 0.9°

    Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

  • Pluto quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.9°

    He keeps giving up a little control to keep growing.

    The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.

    A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 8.4°

    His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
