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 Pisces, 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 Pisces

    The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.

    1°15′

  • Chiron in Pisces

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

    14°20′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Taurus

    In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.

    10°33′

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

PatternsStellium
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 identity, his heart and his drive (the Sun, Venus and Mars) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life drew his attention first.

Aspects by strength19 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.

  • Saturn trine North Node almost exact at 0.4°

    Discipline helped him grow: patience and hard work kept him on course.

  • Pluto trine North Node almost exact at 0.5°

    Deep change helped him forward: each time he started over, he went further.

  • Saturn conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.9°

    Iron will and great patience: he built slowly and for keeps.

  • Neptune quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.9°

    He grew by testing his ideals against real life, again and again.

  • The Sun quincunx Pluto close at 1.0°

    He kept rebuilding himself to fit what life asked, and control was the hardest thing to give up.

  • The Sun square North Node close at 1.5°

    Being himself and growing asked for different things, and his biggest steps forward came when he stretched past his habits.

  • The Sun quincunx Saturn close at 1.9°

    The wish to shine and the wish to be careful needed steady adjusting: he moved forward a step, then checked it.

  • Mars sextile Uranus close at 2.1°

    Quick and inventive in action: he moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.

  • The Sun trine Neptune close at 2.4°

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

  • Venus sextile Uranus close at 2.5°

    He loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

  • Mercury square Jupiter close at 2.9°

    Big ideas and loose details: he thought on a large scale, and the small print was where things got away from him.

  • The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 3.1°

    Charm came naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things were close to his core.

  • Venus square North Node wide at 4.5°

    What felt comfortable in love and what helped him grow were different things, and he chose between them more than once.

  • Venus conjunction Mars wide at 4.6°

    Magnetic: affection and desire came together in him, and people noticed.

  • Mercury square Uranus wide at 4.8°

    His mind ran ahead of the conversation: he said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.

  • Venus trine Neptune wide at 5.5°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: he saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.

  • The Sun sextile Uranus wide at 5.6°

    Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.

  • Jupiter conjunction Uranus wide at 7.7°

    An inventive optimism: he believed in the new, and he took leaps others would not.

  • The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 7.7°

    Purpose and drive in one place: he was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
