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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Leo, 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 Leo

    The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.

    24°35′

  • Chiron in Leo

    In Leo, Chiron is a quiet doubt about deserving the light, and a gift for helping others shine without apology.

    23°49′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Cancer

    In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.

    23°04′

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

Aspects by strength18 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.

  • The Sun sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.2°

    Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.

  • Venus quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.2°

    What he wants from love and what love gives him keep needing adjustment, and he learns to see people as they are.

  • The Sun opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.5°

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

  • The Moon trine Mars almost exact at 0.6°

    His feelings turn straight into action: when something matters, he does something about it.

  • Uranus trine Neptune almost exact at 0.7°

    Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.

  • Saturn sextile Pluto close at 2.3°

    Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.
