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 Pisces, 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 Pisces

    The direction her life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.

    20°49′

  • Chiron in Sagittarius

    In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.

    27°40′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

    In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.

    11°04′

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

PatternsT-square
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.

T-square

Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.

In her chart, her mind (Mercury in Capricorn) and her independence (Uranus in Cancer) face each other across the wheel, and her discipline (Saturn in Libra) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.

Aspects by strength13 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.

  • Mercury square Saturn almost exact at 0.1°

    She doubts her own ideas before anyone else can, and so she checks every one twice.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.3°

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

  • Jupiter trine Uranus almost exact at 0.8°

    Sudden openings: she spots new chances early and jumps at them.

  • Neptune quincunx North Node close at 1.3°

    She grows by testing her ideals against real life, again and again.

  • Pluto quincunx North Node close at 1.6°

    She keeps giving up a little control to keep growing.

  • The Moon trine Mercury close at 3.0°

    Feeling and thought speak the same language: she can put a mood into words, and her words carry feeling.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • The Sun sextile North Node wide at 3.7°

    The direction her life takes suits her: being herself and growing go hand in hand.

  • Mercury opposition Uranus wide at 4.3°

    Her mind runs ahead of the conversation: she says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.

  • Saturn square Uranus wide at 4.4°

    Tradition and rebellion fight in her: she wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.

  • Mars trine Neptune wide at 4.9°

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

  • The Sun square Neptune wide at 5.0°

    The self she knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and she works to keep hold of the real one.

  • Mars opposition Pluto wide at 5.2°

    A fierce will: she meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out her full strength.

  • The Sun trine Saturn wide at 7.9°

    Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.
