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 Scorpio, 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 Scorpio

    The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.

    29°34′

  • 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.

    28°05′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Pisces

    In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.

    18°18′

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

PatternsStellium, T-square, T-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.

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 discipline (the Sun, Mercury and Saturn) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws his attention first.

T-square

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

In his chart, his optimism (Jupiter in Aries) and his independence (Uranus in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and his identity (the Sun in Cancer) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

T-square

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

In his chart, his optimism (Jupiter in Aries) and his independence (Uranus in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and his discipline (Saturn in Cancer) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

Aspects by strength15 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.

  • Jupiter square Saturn almost exact at 0.6°

    Growth and caution keep checking each other: he moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.

  • Mercury quincunx Neptune close at 1.4°

    Meaning comes to him before the words do, and clear speech follows the feeling.

  • Mercury sextile Mars close at 1.6°

    A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

  • The Sun square Jupiter close at 2.0°

    He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.6°

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

  • The Sun conjunction Saturn close at 2.6°

    Serious from early on: purpose and duty are one thing to him, and he treats his own life as work to be done well.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • The Sun square Uranus close at 2.9°

    He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

  • Venus square Neptune wide at 3.2°

    He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

  • Mercury square Pluto wide at 4.0°

    His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

  • The Sun trine North Node wide at 4.0°

    The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.

  • Jupiter opposition Uranus wide at 4.9°

    Restless hope: he wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.

  • Saturn square Uranus wide at 5.5°

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

  • Venus trine Mars wide at 6.2°

    Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

  • Venus square North Node wide at 6.5°

    What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.

  • Saturn trine North Node wide at 6.7°

    Discipline helps him grow: patience and hard work keep him on course.
