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 Cancer
The direction his life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.
0°16′
Chiron in Libra
In Libra, Chiron is a soft spot around being chosen and kept, and a gift for making others feel met as equals.
16°59′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
12°22′
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 Moon sextile Venus close at 1.1°
He put people at ease without trying: kindness and charm came from the same place.
Mercury quincunx Saturn close at 1.4°
Speaking freely and speaking carefully took constant balancing, and he weighed words before letting them go.
The Sun trine Mars close at 2.2°
His purpose and his drive worked together: once he decided on something, he moved on it fast.
The Moon square Uranus close at 2.3°
His moods changed without warning, and he wanted closeness and room to breathe at the same time.
The Sun sextile Neptune close at 3.0°
Imagination and identity worked together: he could become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
