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 her life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.

    13°18′

  • Chiron in Cancer

    In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.

    1°25′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aries

    In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.

    20°52′

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

Aspects by strength16 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 Moon opposition Neptune exact at 0.0°

    Her feelings and her imagination pulled in different directions: she lived between what was real and what she longed for.

  • Venus sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.9°

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

  • Mars sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.9°

    Big drive and big confidence: she went after large goals, and her enthusiasm carried others along.

  • Mercury opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.9°

    Facts and dreams blurred together in her mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details mattered.

  • The Moon conjunction Mercury close at 1.0°

    She thought with her feelings: memory, mood and wit came together, and her words gave away what she felt.

  • Uranus sextile North Node close at 2.0°

    Change helped her forward: she grew by trying the new.

  • Venus trine Pluto wide at 3.2°

    She loved with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she formed changed both people.

  • The Sun sextile Mars wide at 4.3°

    Her purpose and her drive worked together: once she decided on something, she moved on it fast.

  • Jupiter square North Node wide at 4.5°

    Easy hopes and the harder way forward went different ways, and real growth came from the harder one.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 4.8°

    Her mind and her identity were close together: she spoke as she thought, and her ideas were part of who she was.

  • The Sun conjunction Jupiter wide at 5.2°

    Optimism at the centre of her: she expected things to go well, and that confidence won people over.

  • Neptune conjunction Pluto wide at 5.4°

    Imagination and intensity in one place, a meeting that comes about once in five hundred years: a feel for how things end and begin again.

  • The Sun opposition Neptune wide at 5.7°

    The self she knew and the image others saw drifted apart at times, and she worked to keep hold of the real one.

  • Mercury opposition Pluto wide at 6.4°

    Her words had force: she spoke to persuade, and she kept her own counsel until the right moment.

  • Saturn conjunction North Node wide at 6.8°

    A serious path: growing asked for patience, and she gave it.
