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 Cancer
The direction his life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.
10°38′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
12°44′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
2°33′
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 identity, his drive and his discipline (the Sun, Mars and Saturn) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his identity (the Sun in Aquarius) and his optimism (Jupiter in Aries) both point at his intensity (Pluto in Virgo), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
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 sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.5°
His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
Mars square Neptune almost exact at 0.8°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
The Moon square Mars almost exact at 0.8°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.
Mercury sextile Venus almost exact at 0.9°
A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.
The Moon conjunction Neptune close at 1.6°
Feelings without edges: other people’s sorrow and joy reach him as if they are his own.
Uranus sextile North Node close at 1.7°
Change helps him forward: he grows by trying the new.
