Planets

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.
Sun in Pisces
The Dreamer. Gentle, dreamy and deep.

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 Libra
The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.
5°53′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
2°42′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
5°55′
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.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In his chart, his feelings, his mind and his heart (the Moon, Mercury and Venus) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws his attention first.
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 identity, his drive and his independence (the Sun in Pisces, Mars in Cancer and Uranus in Scorpio) 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.
Mercury conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.4°
Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
Jupiter sextile Saturn close at 1.4°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.
The Moon square Mars close at 2.1°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.
The Sun trine Mars close at 2.2°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
The Sun square Neptune close at 2.3°
The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

The Moon trine Neptune close at 2.3°
He picks up what others feel before a word is said, and his compassion reaches far.
Venus opposition North Node wide at 3.6°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
Mercury opposition North Node wide at 4.0°
Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and he learns new ways of thinking to move on.
The Sun trine Uranus wide at 4.3°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
Mercury square Jupiter wide at 5.2°
Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.
Venus square Jupiter wide at 5.6°
He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
The Sun square Jupiter wide at 6.1°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Mars trine Uranus wide at 6.5°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
Mars square Pluto wide at 6.8°
A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.
