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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
4°23′
Chiron in Virgo
In Virgo, Chiron is the sense that no effort is ever quite enough, and a gift for patient, practical help.
10°35′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
4°38′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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.
Venus quincunx Jupiter almost exact at 0.6°
His taste and his appetite for more need adjusting: he keeps learning what is enough.
Uranus sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.7°
He can help change things at the root, and upheaval suits him.
Mars square Neptune close at 1.0°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
Uranus sextile North Node close at 1.4°
Change helps him forward: he grows by trying the new.
The Sun square the Moon close at 1.6°
The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.
Neptune sextile North Node close at 1.7°
Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
