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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
28°33′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
8°59′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
12°42′
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 his chart, his heart, his drive and his independence (Venus in Sagittarius, Mars in Aries and Uranus in Leo) make the triangle, so these come to him 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.
The Sun sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Mars trine Saturn almost exact at 0.6°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
The Sun square Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
The Sun trine Pluto close at 1.3°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
The Moon trine Mercury close at 1.6°
Feeling and thought speak the same language: he can put a mood into words, and his words carry feeling.
Venus trine Uranus close at 1.6°
He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.
