Planets

What’s this?Close

The ten bodies astrology reads: the Sun, the Moon and eight planets. The planet says which part of a person it speaks for, the sign says how that part behaves, and the house says where in life it shows.

  • Sun in Virgo

    The Fixer. Precise, useful and kind.

    20°45′

  • Moon in Virgo

    The Moon moved from Virgo into Libra at 10:08 p.m. that day, local time: in Virgo for a birth before then, in Libra for one after.

    24°14′

  • Mercury in Virgoretrograde

    The Analyst. The editor’s eye.

    7°01′

  • Venus in Leo

    The Romantic. Grand, generous love.

    19°09′

  • Mars in Cancer

    The Defender. Fierce for its own.

    7°39′

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Libra, Chiron and Lilith
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 Libra

    The direction her life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.

    15°19′

  • Chiron in Taurus

    In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.

    5°13′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

    In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.

    15°53′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

Aspects by strength16 between the planets, the closest first
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 0.3°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • Mercury sextile Mars almost exact at 0.6°

    A quick, direct mind: she makes decisions fast and says what she means.

  • Mars trine Uranus close at 1.5°

    Quick and inventive in action: she moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

  • Neptune sextile North Node close at 1.9°

    Imagination helps her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

  • Mercury sextile Uranus close at 2.1°

    A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and she sees answers others miss.

  • Pluto conjunction North Node close at 2.1°

    A path of transformation: her direction in life asks her to change herself completely, more than once.

  • Mercury sextile Jupiter wide at 3.5°

    A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

  • The Sun conjunction the Moon wide at 3.5°

    Born near a new Moon, so what she wants and what she needs move as one: single-minded, and hard to talk out of anything.

  • Venus sextile North Node wide at 3.8°

    Love and friendship move her forward: the people she cares for help her find her way.

  • Mars conjunction Jupiter wide at 4.1°

    Enthusiasm at full speed: she charges at life with confidence, and setbacks slow her only briefly.

  • Venus conjunction Saturn wide at 5.2°

    Serious about love: she gives affection slowly, and once given, it stays given.

  • Mars square Pluto wide at 5.5°

    A fierce will: she meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out her full strength.

  • Jupiter trine Uranus wide at 5.6°

    Sudden openings: she spots new chances early and jumps at them.

  • Venus trine Neptune wide at 5.7°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: she sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

  • Mercury square Neptune wide at 6.5°

    Facts and dreams blur together in her mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.

  • The Sun square Neptune wide at 7.3°

    The self she knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and she works to keep hold of the real one.
