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 Gemini, 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 Gemini

    The direction his life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.

    20°39′

  • Chiron in Libra

    In Libra, Chiron is a soft spot around being chosen and kept, and a gift for making others feel met as equals.

    15°34′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius

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

    7°14′

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

PatternsStellium
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 mind, his heart and his intensity (Mercury, Venus and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life drew his attention first.

Aspects by strength9 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 Uranus close at 1.0°

    Sudden openings: he spotted new chances early and jumped at them.

  • Uranus conjunction North Node close at 1.3°

    An unusual path: his direction in life came through sudden turns and fresh starts.

  • Mercury conjunction Pluto close at 1.6°

    He thought like a detective: nothing was taken at face value, and he remembered everything.

  • The Sun square Jupiter close at 1.7°

    He reached for more than one life could hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

  • Jupiter trine North Node close at 2.3°

    Hope helped him grow: faith in what was possible kept him moving forward.

  • The Moon square Venus close at 2.5°

    What comforted him and what he loved were different things, so his heart and his moods kept negotiating.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • Venus sextile North Node wide at 4.3°

    Love and friendship moved him forward: the people he cared for helped him find his way.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.7°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • The Sun sextile Mars wide at 5.6°

    His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.
