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 his life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.
21°16′
Chiron in Libra
In Libra, Chiron is a soft spot around being chosen and kept, and a gift for making others feel met as equals.
15°54′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
0°35′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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.
The Sun quincunx Jupiter almost exact at 0.1°
He keeps fitting his ambitions to his purpose, and some big plans have to wait.
The Moon square Uranus almost exact at 0.1°
His moods change without warning, and he wants closeness and room to breathe at the same time.
Jupiter square Saturn close at 1.0°
Growth and caution keep checking each other: he moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.
The Sun sextile Saturn close at 1.0°
Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.
Mars conjunction Pluto close at 1.3°
Concentrated force: when he wants something, he goes after it with everything.
Mars sextile Neptune close at 2.0°
He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
