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 Pisces
The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
13°56′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
6°58′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
15°19′
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 Libra) and his drive (Mars in Aries) face each other across the wheel, and his imagination (Neptune in Capricorn) 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 Sun trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.1°
His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
Mercury sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.2°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.
Mercury sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.4°
A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.
Saturn conjunction Uranus almost exact at 0.6°
Disciplined originality: he builds new things on solid foundations.
Mars sextile Jupiter close at 1.1°
Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.
The Sun opposition Mars close at 1.2°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.

The Sun square Neptune close at 1.3°

Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.
