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 Cancer, 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 Cancer

    The direction his life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.

    5°20′

  • Chiron in Aquarius

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

    23°23′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Leo

    In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.

    16°13′

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

PatternsStellium, Stellium
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 his chart, his identity, his mind and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury and Pluto) gather in Gemini, and that part of life drew his attention first.

Stellium

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

In his chart, his heart, his drive and his imagination (Venus, Mars and Neptune) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew his attention first.

Aspects by strength15 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 Moon sextile Venus almost exact at 0.2°

    He put people at ease without trying: kindness and charm came from the same place.

  • Venus opposition Uranus almost exact at 0.5°

    Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.

  • The Moon trine Uranus almost exact at 0.6°

    His feelings liked freedom: he needed space in close ties and gave it back just as easily.

  • Jupiter trine Saturn almost exact at 0.7°

    Hope and caution in balance: he dreamed big and planned carefully, and both helped.

  • The Sun sextile Saturn close at 1.0°

    Purpose and patience worked as a team: he built slowly and got better with every year.

  • Mars conjunction North Node close at 1.5°

    Driven towards his path: he went after the life he wanted with real force.

  • The Sun sextile Jupiter close at 1.7°

    His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.

  • Saturn square North Node close at 2.4°

    Duty and growth competed: what he owed others and where he needed to go called for hard choices.

  • Uranus opposition Neptune wide at 3.2°

    The urge for change and the longing for ideals clashed, and he lived with both.

  • Mercury conjunction Pluto wide at 3.6°

    He thought like a detective: nothing was taken at face value, and he remembered everything.

  • Venus conjunction Neptune wide at 3.6°

    Romance without limits: he fell for ideals as much as people, and his taste ran to the dreamy and the beautiful.

  • Mars square Saturn wide at 3.9°

    Drive with the brakes on: he wanted to move, something held him back, and the friction made him tough.

  • Saturn square Neptune wide at 5.5°

    The dream and the hard work seldom agreed on terms: his discipline and his imagination asked different things of him.

  • Mercury conjunction Mars wide at 6.4°

    He thought fast and spoke faster: his mind liked a contest, and his words had an edge.

  • Neptune conjunction North Node wide at 7.9°

    A path lit by imagination: he followed a vision more than a plan.
