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 Scorpio, 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 Scorpio

    The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.

    9°03′

  • Chiron in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.

    14°21′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Pisces

    In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.

    23°38′

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

Aspects by strength19 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 exact at 0.0°

    A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

  • The Moon square North Node almost exact at 0.6°

    Home comforts and the way forward ask for different things, and growing means leaving some familiar things behind.

  • Venus opposition Uranus close at 1.2°

    Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.

  • Mars square Pluto close at 1.4°

    A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.

  • Mercury sextile Neptune close at 1.6°

    He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.

  • Uranus square North Node close at 2.0°

    The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.
