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 Aquarius, 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 Aquarius

    The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.

    5°29′

  • 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.

    20°36′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Virgo

    In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.

    16°49′

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

PatternsStellium, Stellium
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 drive and his optimism (the Sun, Mercury, Mars and Jupiter) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Stellium

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

In his chart, his feelings, his discipline and his imagination (the Moon, Saturn and Neptune) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Aspects by strength19 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.

  • Venus opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.1°

    He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury almost exact at 0.1°

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

  • Saturn conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.2°

    He takes dreams seriously and gives them structure, and his ideals have to prove themselves.

  • Venus opposition Saturn almost exact at 0.3°

    Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

  • Saturn sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.4°

    Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.

  • The Sun conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.5°

    Optimism at the centre of him: he expects things to go well, and that confidence wins people over.
