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 his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.

    17°51′

  • Chiron in Capricorn

    In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.

    2°34′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

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

    22°45′

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

PatternsStellium
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 his chart, his identity, his mind and his drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Taurus, and that part of life drew his attention first.

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.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.2°

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

  • Neptune quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.2°

    He grew by testing his ideals against real life, again and again.

  • Pluto quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.4°

    He kept giving up a little control to keep growing.

  • Venus sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.6°

    He loved with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he formed changed both people.

  • Venus trine Neptune almost exact at 0.8°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: he saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.

  • Venus square North Node close at 1.0°

    What felt comfortable in love and what helped him grow were different things, and he chose between them more than once.

  • The Sun sextile Uranus close at 2.2°

    Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.

    A fierce will: he met opposition head on, and a fight brought out his full strength.

  • Mars sextile North Node wide at 3.7°

    Courage moved him forward, and each bold step took him further along his path.

  • Jupiter square Uranus wide at 4.5°

    Restless hope: he wanted more freedom than any situation gave, and big changes came suddenly.

  • Jupiter opposition Saturn wide at 5.5°

    Growth and caution kept checking each other: he moved forward in bursts, then paused to consolidate.

  • The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 5.7°

    Purpose and drive in one place: he was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 7.3°

    His mind and his identity were close together: he spoke as he thought, and his ideas were part of who he was.
