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 Sagittarius, 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 Sagittarius

    The direction her life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.

    13°04′

  • 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.

    23°01′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.

    15°22′

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

Aspects by strength12 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.

  • Mars quincunx Jupiter almost exact at 0.4°

    Drive and hope keep going in slightly different directions, and she aims again and again.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.7°

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

  • The Sun conjunction Pluto close at 2.3°

    Intensity at the centre: she wants the whole truth about everything, herself first, and she remakes herself more than once to reach it.

  • Mars sextile Neptune close at 2.5°

    She works for ideals: her drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

  • Jupiter square Neptune close at 2.9°

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

  • Jupiter square North Node close at 2.9°

    Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.

  • The Sun sextile Neptune close at 3.0°

    Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

  • Mercury conjunction Uranus wide at 3.1°

    She thinks in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.

  • Mars conjunction Pluto wide at 3.1°

    Concentrated force: when she wants something, she goes after it with everything.

  • Mars sextile North Node wide at 3.3°

    Courage moves her forward, and each bold step takes her further along her path.

  • The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 5.5°

    Purpose and drive in one place: she is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

  • Neptune conjunction North Node wide at 5.8°

    A path lit by imagination: she follows a vision more than a plan.
