The Architect. Ambitious, patient and dry.

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 Gemini
The direction her life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.
11°23′
Chiron in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.
6°10′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
26°37′
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.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In her chart, her feelings (the Moon in Aries) and her imagination (Neptune in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and her identity (the Sun in Capricorn) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.

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 square Neptune almost exact at 0.1°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.
Neptune trine North Node almost exact at 0.6°
Imagination helps her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
The Sun square the Moon almost exact at 0.7°
The self she shows the world and the self she comes home to want different things, and she makes room for both.
Mars quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.7°
She keeps adjusting how hard she pushes to fit where her life is going.
The Moon trine Saturn close at 1.1°
Steady feelings: she keeps calm under strain, and she loves in ways that last.
Jupiter quincunx Uranus close at 1.3°
Her hopes and her restlessness keep changing places, and she redraws her plans more than once.
