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 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.

    9°08′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Virgo

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

    0°49′

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 mind, his heart and his independence (Mercury, Venus and Uranus) gather in Aries, and that part of life drew his attention first.

Aspects by strength15 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 quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.6°

    Meaning came to him before the words did, and clear speech followed the feeling.

  • The Sun opposition the Moon almost exact at 0.9°

    The self he showed the world and the self he came home to wanted different things, and he made room for both.

  • Venus square Pluto close at 1.1°

    Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.

  • Venus sextile North Node close at 1.4°

    Love and friendship moved him forward: the people he cared for helped him find his way.

  • Saturn quincunx Pluto close at 2.1°

    He kept adjusting between control and acceptance, and learned where each belonged.

  • The Sun sextile Mars close at 2.4°

    His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.
