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 Taurus, 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 Taurus

    The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.

    11°36′

  • Chiron in Pisces

    In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.

    3°03′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius

    In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.

    8°41′

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

PatternsGrand trine
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.

Grand trine

Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.

In her chart, her identity, her optimism and her imagination (the Sun in Pisces, Jupiter in Scorpio and Neptune in Cancer) make the triangle, so these came to her naturally.

Aspects by strength10 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 sextile North Node almost exact at 0.4°

    The direction her life took suited her: being herself and growing went hand in hand.

  • Uranus quincunx Pluto close at 1.9°

    Freedom and control needed constant adjusting, and she changed in stages rather than all at once.

  • Mercury trine Pluto close at 2.2°

    A probing mind: she got to the bottom of things, and her words had power when she chose to use them.

  • The Sun trine Jupiter close at 2.5°

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

  • Jupiter opposition North Node close at 2.9°

    Easy hopes and the harder way forward went different ways, and real growth came from the harder one.

  • Mars opposition Neptune wide at 3.5°

    Drive and dreams mixed uneasily: the goal was clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • Jupiter trine Neptune wide at 4.4°

    Faith and imagination together: she believed in people and ideals, and that belief was catching.

  • Saturn square Uranus wide at 5.0°

    Tradition and rebellion fought in her: she wanted security and freedom, and could rarely have both at once.

  • Mars conjunction Uranus wide at 5.4°

    Electric: she acted on impulse, loved a risk and refused to be told what to do.

  • The Sun trine Neptune wide at 6.9°

    Imagination and identity worked together: she could become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
