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 Gemini, 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 Gemini

    The direction her life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.

    7°04′

  • Chiron in Gemini

    In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.

    0°29′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Pisces

    In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.

    14°24′

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 her chart, her drive, her discipline and her intensity (Mars, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Aspects by strength13 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 trine Uranus almost exact at 0.4°

    She loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all her own.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.6°

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

  • Venus quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.6°

    She keeps weighing pleasure against duty, and joy comes once the work is done.

  • Venus square Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°

    She loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.

  • Jupiter sextile Saturn close at 1.4°

    Hope and caution in balance: she dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.

  • The Sun quincunx Mars close at 1.7°

    Aim and action run at different speeds, and she spends real effort keeping them in step.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • The Sun opposition Pluto close at 1.8°

    Nothing about her is halfway: she insists on running her own life, and the struggle makes her formidable.

  • The Moon opposition North Node close at 2.3°

    Home comforts and the way forward ask for different things, and growing means leaving some familiar things behind.

  • The Sun trine Neptune close at 2.4°

    Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

  • Mercury trine Neptune wide at 3.1°

    She thinks in pictures and music: her words carry a mood, and her imagination gives her ideas colour.

  • Mercury opposition Pluto wide at 3.6°

    Her words have force: she speaks to persuade, and she keeps her own counsel until the right moment.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 5.5°

    Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.

  • Uranus opposition North Node wide at 6.1°

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

The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.

Earth · the practical and the solid3

Modes

No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
