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 Scorpio
The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.

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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
3°21′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
6°14′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
11°13′
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 heart and his imagination (the Sun, Venus and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his drive (Mars in Leo) and his discipline (Saturn in Aquarius) face each other across the wheel, and his identity (the Sun in Scorpio) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
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 square Mars almost exact at 0.3°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
Jupiter quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.5°
Some hopes have to be let go to fit the way forward, and he chooses which ones.
Saturn quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.6°
When to keep the rules and when to break them takes constant deciding.
The Sun sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.4°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Jupiter opposition Uranus close at 1.8°
Restless hope: he wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Saturn opposition North Node close at 1.9°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
Mars square Neptune close at 1.9°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
The Sun conjunction Neptune close at 2.2°
He takes in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gives them back as something new.
Mercury trine Jupiter wide at 5.0°
A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.
Mercury square North Node wide at 5.5°
Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and he learns new ways of thinking to move on.
The Sun square Saturn wide at 5.6°
Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.
Mars opposition Saturn wide at 5.9°
Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.
The Sun sextile Uranus wide at 6.2°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
Uranus conjunction Pluto wide at 7.1°
Born into a time of upheaval: he wants radical change, and wants it at once.
The Sun square North Node wide at 7.5°
Being himself and growing ask for different things, and his biggest steps forward come when he stretches past his habits.
The Sun trine Jupiter wide at 8.0°
His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
