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 Capricorn 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 Capricorn

    The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.

    23°15′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio

    In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.

    11°24′

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

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.

  • Uranus opposition North Node almost exact at 0.1°

    The way forward asked for steadiness, and the urge for change kept breaking in.

  • Mercury conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.3°

    He thought fast and spoke faster: his mind liked a contest, and his words had an edge.

  • Saturn conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.4°

    Iron will and great patience: he built slowly and for keeps.

  • Mars trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.5°

    Big drive and big confidence: he went after large goals, and his enthusiasm carried others along.

  • Mercury trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°

    A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learned easily, told a good story and saw the big picture.

  • Neptune trine Pluto close at 1.5°

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