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 Sagittarius
The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
11°21′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
0°07′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
0°57′
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.
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 feelings, his heart and his independence (the Sun, the Moon, Venus and Uranus) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life drew his attention first.
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 Moon opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.3°
His feelings and his imagination pulled in different directions: he lived between what was real and what he longed for.
Venus conjunction Uranus almost exact at 0.4°
Love at first sight, and freedom after it: the different and the new won his heart.
The Sun sextile North Node almost exact at 0.6°
The direction his life took suited him: being himself and growing went hand in hand.
Mercury quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
Speaking freely and speaking carefully took constant balancing, and he weighed words before letting them go.
Saturn opposition Uranus almost exact at 0.8°
Tradition and rebellion fought in him: he wanted security and freedom, and could rarely have both at once.
Venus opposition Saturn close at 1.2°
Love felt like something to be earned, and he held back until he was sure of it.

Jupiter conjunction Pluto close at 2.3°

The Sun opposition Neptune close at 2.9°
The self he knew and the image others saw drifted apart at times, and he worked to keep hold of the real one.
The Sun conjunction the Moon wide at 3.2°
Born near a new Moon, so what he wanted and what he needed moved as one: single-minded, and hard to talk out of anything.
Neptune trine North Node wide at 3.5°
Imagination helped him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
The Sun quincunx Jupiter wide at 3.6°
He kept fitting his ambitions to his purpose, and some big plans had to wait.
Mars trine Jupiter wide at 3.9°
Big drive and big confidence: he went after large goals, and his enthusiasm carried others along.
Venus conjunction Mars wide at 6.2°
Magnetic: affection and desire came together in him, and people noticed.
Mars conjunction Uranus wide at 6.6°
Electric: he acted on impulse, loved a risk and refused to be told what to do.
Mars opposition Saturn wide at 7.4°
Drive with the brakes on: he wanted to move, something held him back, and the friction made him tough.
