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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
20°41′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
27°04′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
24°04′
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 drive (the Moon, Mercury and Mars) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life drew his attention first.

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 Mars almost exact at 0.1°
He thought fast and spoke faster: his mind liked a contest, and his words had an edge.
Uranus sextile North Node almost exact at 0.3°
Change helped him forward: he grew by trying the new.
The Moon opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.3°
His feelings and his imagination pulled in different directions: he lived between what was real and what he longed for.
The Moon conjunction North Node close at 2.2°
His instincts led the way: following his feelings was how he found his direction.
Neptune opposition North Node close at 2.5°
Dreams and the way forward clashed, and growing meant trading some illusions for clear sight.
Uranus trine Neptune close at 2.8°
Change and idealism went together: new ideas came wrapped in dreams of a better world.
