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 Pisces, 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 Pisces

    The direction her life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.

    28°21′

  • Chiron in Sagittarius

    In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.

    16°03′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Taurus

    In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.

    27°00′

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 identity, her feelings, her mind, her heart and her discipline (the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Aspects by strength10 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.

  • Mercury opposition North Node close at 1.0°

    Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and she learns new ways of thinking to move on.

  • Mercury quincunx Jupiter close at 1.1°

    The facts and the bigger picture need constant reconciling, and she keeps checking one against the other.

  • Mars square Pluto close at 1.6°

    A fierce will: she meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out her full strength.

  • Venus opposition Jupiter close at 1.6°

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

  • Mars sextile Saturn close at 1.8°

    Her drive and her discipline work together easily: she can push hard and keep going.

  • The Sun sextile Mars close at 2.0°

    Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.7°

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

  • The Sun conjunction Saturn wide at 3.8°

    Serious from early on: purpose and duty are one thing to her, and she treats her own life as work to be done well.

  • Saturn opposition North Node wide at 6.2°

    Duty and growth compete: what she owes others and where she needs to go call for hard choices.

  • Mercury conjunction Saturn wide at 7.2°

    Serious thoughts: she says less than she knows, and what she says holds up.
