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 Gemini
The direction his life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.
20°54′
Chiron in Libra
In Libra, Chiron is a soft spot around being chosen and kept, and a gift for making others feel met as equals.
15°20′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
1°55′
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 independence (the Sun, Venus and Uranus) gather in Gemini, and that part of life drew 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.
The Moon opposition Pluto almost exact at 0.9°
He loved hard and held on hard, and letting go took him a long time.
Mercury sextile Saturn close at 1.2°
A patient, exact mind: he chose every word, and his thinking got sharper with practice.
Jupiter trine Uranus close at 1.7°
Sudden openings: he spotted new chances early and jumped at them.
Mercury quincunx Jupiter close at 1.9°
The facts and the bigger picture needed constant reconciling, and he kept checking one against the other.
Mars sextile Uranus close at 2.2°
Quick and inventive in action: he moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.
Jupiter trine North Node close at 2.6°
Hope helped him grow: faith in what was possible kept him moving forward.
