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.
29°44′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
7°17′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
18°12′
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.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his identity, his feelings and his intensity (the Sun in Capricorn, the Moon in Taurus and Pluto in Virgo) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.
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 trine Pluto almost exact at 0.1°
His feelings run deep and hold steady: he comes through hard times with more strength than he goes in with.
The Sun sextile Neptune close at 1.1°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Venus trine North Node close at 1.1°
Love and friendship move him forward: the people he cares for help him find his way.
Mercury quincunx Uranus close at 1.6°
Ordinary logic and sudden insight need constant translating, and he spends time explaining how he gets there.
Saturn quincunx Pluto close at 1.6°
He keeps adjusting between control and acceptance, and learns where each belongs.
The Moon square Saturn close at 1.7°
Feelings come second to duty: he holds himself to a high standard, even in private.
