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 Taurus, 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 Taurus

    The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.

    12°11′

  • Chiron in Taurus

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

    11°37′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn

    In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.

    19°28′

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

PatternsStellium
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.

Stellium

Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.

In her chart, her identity, her mind and her drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life drew her attention first.

Aspects by strength10 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 trine Pluto almost exact at 0.3°

    A quiet strength: under pressure she grew more focused, and she knew how to start over.

  • The Moon trine Mars almost exact at 0.5°

    Her feelings turned straight into action: when something mattered, she did something about it.

  • Mercury opposition North Node close at 1.0°

    Old ideas and the way forward were at odds, and she learned new ways of thinking to move on.

  • Venus sextile Saturn close at 1.1°

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

  • Venus sextile Neptune wide at 4.2°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: she saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.

  • Saturn trine Neptune wide at 5.3°

    Practical dreams: she gave ideals a shape and worked to make them real.

  • The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 6.0°

    Purpose and drive in one place: she was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

  • Mars trine Pluto wide at 6.3°

    Stamina and willpower: she kept going long after others stopped, and she did her best work under pressure.

  • The Sun opposition North Node wide at 7.7°

    Being herself and growing asked for different things, and her biggest steps forward came when she stretched past her habits.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 8.7°

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