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 Capricorn
The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.
11°46′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
10°50′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
4°25′
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.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his mind (Mercury in Aquarius) and his intensity (Pluto in Cancer) face each other across the wheel, and his independence (Uranus in Taurus) took the strain: the part of him that worked hardest.
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.
Saturn sextile North Node almost exact at 0.8°
Discipline helped him grow: patience and hard work kept him on course.
Mercury square Uranus almost exact at 0.9°
His mind ran ahead of the conversation: he said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.
Mars trine Pluto almost exact at 0.9°
Stamina and willpower: he kept going long after others stopped, and he did his best work under pressure.
Venus opposition Pluto close at 1.1°
Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
The Moon conjunction Jupiter close at 1.3°
Big feelings and a big heart: his good moods lifted everyone near, and he gave comfort freely.
Venus sextile Mars close at 2.0°
Charm and desire worked together: he knew what he wanted in love and how to win it.
