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 Capricorn
The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.
5°05′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
13°58′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
12°47′
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 independence (the Sun, Mars and Uranus) gather in Taurus, 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 drive (Mars in Taurus) and his intensity (Pluto in Cancer) both point at his optimism (Jupiter in Sagittarius), 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 Moon square Jupiter almost exact at 0.2°
His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.
Uranus trine North Node almost exact at 0.8°
Change helps him forward: he grows by trying the new.
Venus square Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.
Jupiter quincunx Pluto close at 1.6°
The bigger the stakes grow, the more he has to rethink his aims.
Mars quincunx Jupiter close at 1.6°
Drive and hope keep going in slightly different directions, and he aims again and again.
The Moon trine Mars close at 1.9°
His feelings turn straight into action: when something matters, he does something about it.
