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.

  • Sun in Aries

    The Sun moved from Aries into Taurus at 4:42 p.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.

    29°49′

  • Moon in Aquarius

    The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 11:57 a.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.

    0°02′

  • Mercury in Aries

    The Spark. First to speak.

    24°06′

  • Venus in Aries

    The Chaser. Love at first sight.

    13°27′

  • Mars in Taurus

    The Stayer. Slow to start, impossible to stop.

    16°39′

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Aries, 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 Aries

    The direction her life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.

    18°40′

  • Chiron in Aries

    In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.

    1°03′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Taurus

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

    23°20′

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

PatternsYod, Yod
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.

Yod

Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.

In her chart, her independence (Uranus in Virgo) and her imagination (Neptune in Scorpio) both point at her identity (the Sun in Aries), the part of her that keeps needing adjustment and gives her life its focus.

Yod

Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.

In her chart, her independence (Uranus in Virgo) and her imagination (Neptune in Scorpio) both point at her mind (Mercury in Aries), the part of her that keeps needing adjustment and gives her life its focus.

Aspects by strength18 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 square Neptune exact at 0.0°

    Her hopes run ahead of what is real, and she learns to check a beautiful idea against the facts.

  • Uranus sextile Neptune exact at 0.0°

    Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.

  • The Sun square the Moon almost exact at 0.2°

    The self she shows the world and the self she comes home to want different things, and she makes room for both.

  • Saturn conjunction North Node close at 1.4°

    A serious path: growing asks for patience, and she gives it.

  • Mercury trine Jupiter close at 1.7°

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

  • Mercury quincunx Neptune close at 1.7°

    Meaning comes to her before the words do, and clear speech follows the feeling.
