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 Libra
The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.

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 Virgo
The direction her life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
8°13′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
12°56′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
9°37′
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 her chart, her identity, her mind, her heart and her intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws her 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 Pluto almost exact at 0.7°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Saturn sextile Uranus close at 1.3°
Old and new sit well together: she can change things without throwing out what works.
The Moon opposition Saturn close at 1.4°
Feelings come second to duty: she holds herself to a high standard, even in private.
Saturn square Neptune close at 2.2°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: her discipline and her imagination ask different things of her.
Venus conjunction Pluto close at 2.5°
A deep, private heart: she draws people in and keeps some feelings locked away.
Venus sextile Neptune wide at 3.3°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: she sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mercury conjunction Venus wide at 4.5°
Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.
The Sun sextile Mars wide at 5.0°
Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.
Mercury conjunction Pluto wide at 7.1°
She thinks like a detective: nothing is taken at face value, and she remembers everything.
Jupiter conjunction North Node wide at 7.2°
Generosity is part of her path: teaching, travel and big ideas move her forward.
The Sun conjunction Pluto wide at 8.2°
Intensity at the centre: she wants the whole truth about everything, herself first, and she remakes herself more than once to reach it.
