Planets

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.

The Sun moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 10:44 p.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.

Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 12:03 p.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.

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.
13°40′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
21°11′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
7°09′
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.
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 Taurus) and his discipline (Saturn in Scorpio) face each other across the wheel, and his heart (Venus in Aquarius) took the strain: the part of him that worked 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.
Jupiter quincunx North Node exact at 0.0°
Some hopes had to be let go to fit the way forward, and he chose which ones.
Venus opposition North Node almost exact at 0.3°
What felt comfortable in love and what helped him grow were different things, and he chose between them more than once.
Saturn square North Node almost exact at 0.6°
Duty and growth competed: what he owed others and where he needed to go called for hard choices.
Jupiter sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreamed big and planned carefully, and both helped.
Uranus quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.8°
Sudden change and slow dreams kept adjusting to each other.
Venus square Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
Love felt like something to be earned, and he held back until he was sure of it.
