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.
Sun in Cancer
The Protector. Home, memory and care.

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 Taurus
The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
6°30′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
6°27′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
23°42′
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 her chart, her identity (the Sun in Cancer) and her independence (Uranus in Capricorn) face each other across the wheel, and her drive (Mars in Taurus) took the strain: the part of her that worked hardest.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In her chart, her drive (Mars in Taurus) and her optimism (Jupiter in Scorpio) face each other across the wheel, and her mind (Mercury in Leo) took the strain: the part of her 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.
The Sun trine the Moon almost exact at 0.4°
Her purpose and her feelings were on the same side: the life she chose and the comfort she needed went together.
Mercury square North Node almost exact at 0.5°
Old ideas and the way forward were at odds, and she learned new ways of thinking to move on.
Uranus quincunx Pluto almost exact at 0.5°
Freedom and control needed constant adjusting, and she changed in stages rather than all at once.
The Moon trine Neptune close at 1.3°
She picked up what others felt before a word was said, and her compassion reached far.
Jupiter opposition North Node close at 1.5°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward went different ways, and real growth came from the harder one.
The Sun conjunction Neptune close at 1.7°
She took in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gave them back as something new.
