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 Virgo
The direction his life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
12°59′
Chiron in Leo
In Leo, Chiron is a quiet doubt about deserving the light, and a gift for helping others shine without apology.
8°13′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
14°38′
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.
The Sun sextile Mars almost exact at 0.3°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
Mercury quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.3°
His habits of thought need small, steady changes to fit the way forward.
Uranus trine Neptune almost exact at 0.3°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Saturn trine Neptune close at 1.1°
Practical dreams: he gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.
Saturn conjunction Uranus close at 1.4°
Disciplined originality: he builds new things on solid foundations.
The Moon opposition North Node close at 1.6°
Home comforts and the way forward ask for different things, and growing means leaving some familiar things behind.

Venus quincunx Pluto close at 2.1°

Mars conjunction Jupiter wide at 3.8°
Enthusiasm at full speed: he charges at life with confidence, and setbacks slow him only briefly.

Jupiter square North Node wide at 4.8°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
Mars square Neptune wide at 6.3°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
Venus opposition North Node wide at 7.4°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 8.5°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
