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 Taurus
The direction his life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
17°36′
Chiron in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.
24°21′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
12°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 drive, his discipline and his intensity (Mars, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws 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.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Saturn square North Node close at 1.1°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
The Sun opposition Mars close at 1.7°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
Jupiter opposition Uranus close at 1.8°
Restless hope: he wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.
The Sun sextile Jupiter close at 2.7°
His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
Saturn sextile Uranus wide at 3.5°
Old and new sit well together: he can change things without throwing out what works.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Pluto square North Node wide at 4.1°
Old attachments hold him back from the way forward, and he grows by letting some things go.
Mars trine Jupiter wide at 4.4°
Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.
The Sun trine Uranus wide at 4.5°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
Saturn conjunction Pluto wide at 5.2°
Iron will and great patience: he builds slowly and for keeps.
Jupiter trine Saturn wide at 5.3°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.
Mercury opposition Mars wide at 5.7°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.
Venus opposition Neptune wide at 7.1°
He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 7.4°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
The Sun opposition Saturn wide at 8.1°
Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.
