Planets

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 Aquarius
The Free Thinker. Original, free and humane.

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 Aquarius
The direction her life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
5°15′
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.
9°48′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
26°15′
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.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In her chart, her identity, her discipline and her intensity (the Sun in Aquarius, Saturn in Taurus and Pluto in Libra) make the triangle, so these come to her naturally.
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 0.6°
Imagination helps her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
The Sun trine Saturn close at 1.1°
Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.
The Sun trine Pluto close at 1.2°
A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.
Mars opposition Uranus close at 1.4°
Restless and quick to rebel: she pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.
Venus square Neptune close at 1.5°
She loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
Saturn trine Pluto close at 2.3°
Endurance: she can work through hard times, and what she builds survives pressure.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.7°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury square Mars close at 2.7°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: she argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to her.
Jupiter quincunx Saturn close at 2.9°
When to expand and when to hold back takes constant rethinking.
Pluto trine North Node wide at 3.3°
Deep change helps her forward: each time she starts over, she goes further.
The Sun sextile Neptune wide at 3.9°
Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Mercury square Uranus wide at 4.2°
Her mind runs ahead of the conversation: she says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
The Sun conjunction North Node wide at 4.5°
Her identity and her direction in life line up: the more fully she becomes herself, the further she goes.
Saturn opposition Neptune wide at 5.0°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: her discipline and her imagination ask different things of her.
Jupiter square Pluto wide at 5.2°
She wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes her life.
Saturn trine North Node wide at 5.6°
Discipline helps her grow: patience and hard work keep her on course.
