Planets

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.
Sun in Aries
The Pioneer. First in, first to try.

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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
27°37′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
26°20′
Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.
1°15′
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 mind, his heart, his drive and his independence (Mercury, Venus, Mars and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws 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.
Mars trine Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
Pluto trine North Node almost exact at 0.2°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
The Sun quincunx Neptune close at 1.7°
He keeps redrawing the line between the life he has and the life he imagines.
Mercury conjunction Venus close at 2.0°
Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
Jupiter square North Node wide at 3.2°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
Venus square Pluto wide at 4.9°
Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mars square Jupiter wide at 5.5°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Mars conjunction Uranus wide at 6.7°
Electric: he acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.
Uranus trine Neptune wide at 6.9°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Mercury conjunction Uranus wide at 7.3°
He thinks in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.
The Sun conjunction Saturn wide at 8.2°
Serious from early on: purpose and duty are one thing to him, and he treats his own life as work to be done well.
