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 Cancer
The Protector. Home, memory and care.
22°29′
Moon in Aries
The Moon moved from Pisces into Aries at 6:45 a.m. that day, local time: in Pisces for a birth before then, in Aries for one after.
3°05′
Mercury in Leo
The Storyteller. A voice that carries.
19°05′
Venus in Gemini
The Charmer. Love through conversation.
24°38′

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.
2°04′
Chiron in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.
12°25′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
23°36′
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.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In her chart, her drive (Mars in Cancer) and her discipline (Saturn in Taurus) both point at her intensity (Pluto in Sagittarius), the part of her that keeps needing adjustment and gives her life its focus.
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.
Mars quincunx Pluto almost exact at 0.3°
Force and restraint keep trading places, and she learns when to let go.
Saturn trine North Node almost exact at 0.7°
Discipline helps her grow: patience and hard work keep her on course.
Neptune quincunx North Node close at 1.1°
She grows by testing her ideals against real life, again and again.
Saturn square Neptune close at 1.8°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: her discipline and her imagination ask different things of her.
Saturn quincunx Pluto close at 2.8°
She keeps adjusting between control and acceptance, and learns where each belongs.
Jupiter sextile Neptune close at 3.0°
Faith and imagination together: she believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.

Mars sextile Saturn wide at 3.1°
Her drive and her discipline work together easily: she can push hard and keep going.
Venus square Jupiter wide at 3.4°
She loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
Pluto square North Node wide at 3.5°
Old attachments hold her back from the way forward, and she grows by letting some things go.
Mars sextile North Node wide at 3.9°
Courage moves her forward, and each bold step takes her further along her path.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.6°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun trine Jupiter wide at 5.6°
Her confidence comes easily and spreads: she thinks big, and other people want to come along.
The Sun opposition Neptune wide at 8.5°
The self she knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and she works to keep hold of the real one.
