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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
24°40′
Chiron in Leo
In Leo, Chiron is a quiet doubt about deserving the light, and a gift for helping others shine without apology.
24°13′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
22°17′
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 drive, his discipline and his imagination (Mars in Aquarius, Saturn in Gemini and Neptune in Libra) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.
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 drive, his independence and his imagination (Mars in Aquarius, Uranus in Gemini and Neptune in Libra) 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.
Mars opposition Pluto almost exact at 0.2°
A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.
Uranus trine Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Mercury square Saturn almost exact at 0.3°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
The Sun quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.5°
The way forward asks him to bend habits that feel like part of who he is.
The Moon conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°
Big feelings and a big heart: his good moods lift everyone near, and he gives comfort freely.
Mars trine Saturn close at 1.5°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
