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 Leo, Chiron 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 Leo

    The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.

    25°35′

  • Chiron in Pisces

    In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.

    2°18′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Leo

    In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.

    28°16′

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

Aspects by strength16 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.

  • Mercury conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.6°

    He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.0°

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

  • Venus trine Saturn close at 1.1°

    Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.

  • Mars sextile Pluto close at 1.1°

    Stamina and willpower: he keeps going long after others stop, and he does his best work under pressure.

  • Jupiter quincunx Uranus close at 1.3°

    His hopes and his restlessness keep changing places, and he redraws his plans more than once.

  • Mercury sextile Pluto close at 1.7°

    A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.
