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.

    3°58′

  • Chiron in Virgo

    In Virgo, Chiron is the sense that no effort is ever quite enough, and a gift for patient, practical help.

    10°12′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Virgo

    In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.

    5°23′

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

Aspects by strength17 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.

  • Uranus sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.3°

    He can help change things at the root, and upheaval suits him.

  • The Moon conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.3°

    Feelings without edges: other people’s sorrow and joy reach him as if they are his own.

  • The Sun trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.4°

    His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.

  • Mercury sextile Mars almost exact at 0.7°

    A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

  • Mercury square Pluto almost exact at 0.7°

    His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

  • Neptune sextile North Node close at 1.5°

    Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

    A path of transformation: his direction in life asks him to change himself completely, more than once.
