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 Libra
The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.
2°49′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
20°07′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
0°13′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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.
Venus opposition Pluto almost exact at 0.4°
Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Saturn trine Uranus close at 1.6°
Old and new sat well together: he could change things without throwing out what worked.
Mars conjunction Uranus close at 1.7°
Electric: he acted on impulse, loved a risk and refused to be told what to do.
Saturn quincunx Neptune close at 2.1°
Duty and dreams kept trading places as the priority.
Mars trine Saturn wide at 3.3°
His drive and his discipline worked together easily: he could push hard and keep going.
Mars square North Node wide at 3.6°
