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 Sagittarius
The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
25°33′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
2°14′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
16°20′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
Patterns
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 mind, his heart, his drive, his optimism and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his attention first.
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.
Neptune sextile North Node almost exact at 0.1°
Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.3°
Optimism at the centre of him: he expects things to go well, and that confidence wins people over.
Pluto trine North Node almost exact at 0.4°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
Mercury conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°
He loves ideas, the bigger the better, and he can talk anyone into hoping.
Mars square Saturn almost exact at 0.8°
Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.

The Sun conjunction Mercury close at 1.1°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
Uranus square Neptune wide at 3.2°
The urge for change and the longing for ideals clash, and he lives with both.
The Sun square Saturn wide at 3.2°
Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.
Jupiter square Saturn wide at 3.5°

The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 4.0°
Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
Mercury square Saturn wide at 4.3°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Mars conjunction Jupiter wide at 4.3°
Enthusiasm at full speed: he charges at life with confidence, and setbacks slow him only briefly.
Mercury conjunction Mars wide at 5.1°
He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.
Venus conjunction Uranus wide at 5.1°
Love at first sight, and freedom after it: the different and the new win his heart.
Mercury conjunction Venus wide at 6.5°
Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
Venus conjunction Jupiter wide at 7.2°
A generous heart: love and good company come to him easily, and he shares both.
The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 7.6°
Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.
