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 Sagittarius, 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 Sagittarius

    The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.

    27°22′

  • Chiron in Taurus

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

    13°00′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Cancer

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

    11°16′

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

PatternsGrand trine
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.

Grand trine

Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.

In his chart, his identity, his independence and his imagination (the Sun in Capricorn, Uranus in Virgo and Neptune in Taurus) make the triangle, so these came to him naturally.

Aspects by strength21 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 square Jupiter almost exact at 0.4°

    He reached for more than one life could hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

  • Venus sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.6°

    Loyal in love: he chose carefully, and what he built with people lasted.

  • The Moon trine Neptune almost exact at 0.6°

    He picked up what others felt before a word was said, and his compassion reached far.

  • Pluto quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.7°

    He kept giving up a little control to keep growing.

  • Mercury quincunx Pluto almost exact at 0.9°

    What he knew and what he said needed careful managing, and secrets sat uneasily with him.

  • The Sun trine Neptune close at 1.2°

    Imagination and identity worked together: he could become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
