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 Capricorn, 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 Capricorn

    The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.

    0°07′

  • Chiron in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.

    4°30′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius

    In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.

    2°20′

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

PatternsStellium, Grand trine, Grand trine, Grand trine, T-square
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 feelings, his optimism and his independence (the Moon, Jupiter and Uranus) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Grand trine

Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.

In his chart, his feelings, his mind and his discipline (the Moon in Cancer, Mercury in Pisces and Saturn in Scorpio) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.

Grand trine

Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.

In his chart, his mind, his optimism and his discipline (Mercury in Pisces, Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Scorpio) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.

Grand trine

Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.

In his chart, his mind, his discipline and his independence (Mercury in Pisces, Saturn in Scorpio and Uranus in Cancer) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.

T-square

Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.

In his chart, his drive (Mars in Taurus) and his discipline (Saturn in Scorpio) face each other across the wheel, and his intensity (Pluto in Leo) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

Aspects by strength22 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.

  • Jupiter trine Saturn almost exact at 0.2°

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

  • Mercury trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.6°

    A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

  • Mars sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.7°

    Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

  • Mercury trine Saturn almost exact at 0.8°

    A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

  • Venus sextile North Node close at 1.1°

    Love and friendship move him forward: the people he cares for help him find his way.

  • The Moon trine Mercury close at 1.2°
