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, 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 Aquarius

    The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.

    6°59′

  • Chiron in Scorpio

    In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.

    8°06′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Taurus

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

    20°33′

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

PatternsStellium, Stellium
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 identity, his imagination and his intensity (the Sun, Neptune and Pluto) gather in Gemini, and that part of life drew his attention first.

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 discipline and his independence (the Moon, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Scorpio, 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.

  • Saturn conjunction Uranus almost exact at 0.3°

    Disciplined originality: he built new things on solid foundations.

  • Mars sextile Pluto close at 1.0°

    Stamina and willpower: he kept going long after others stopped, and he did his best work under pressure.

  • The Sun conjunction Neptune close at 1.6°

    He took in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gave them back as something new.

  • Venus square North Node close at 2.3°

    What felt comfortable in love and what helped him grow were different things, and he chose between them more than once.

  • Mercury opposition Uranus wide at 3.4°

    His mind ran ahead of the conversation: he said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.

  • Mercury opposition Saturn wide at 3.7°

    He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • The Sun quincunx Saturn wide at 4.0°

    The wish to shine and the wish to be careful needed steady adjusting: he moved forward a step, then checked it.

  • Mercury square Jupiter wide at 4.0°

    Big ideas and loose details: he thought on a large scale, and the small print was where things got away from him.

  • The Sun quincunx Uranus wide at 4.3°

    His restlessness kept testing his plans, so he changed course more than once to stay true to himself.

  • Venus square Mars wide at 5.2°

    In love he wanted tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships were rarely calm.

  • Venus trine Jupiter wide at 5.9°

    Affection came to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism helped each other.

  • Pluto trine North Node wide at 6.4°

    Deep change helped him forward: each time he started over, he went further.

  • Neptune conjunction Pluto wide at 6.7°

    Imagination and intensity in one place, a meeting that comes about once in five hundred years: a feel for how things end and begin again.

  • Mars opposition North Node wide at 7.4°

    Old fights and the way forward disagreed, and he grew by choosing which battles mattered.

  • The Sun conjunction Pluto wide at 8.3°

    Intensity at the centre: he wanted the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remade himself more than once to reach it.
