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.
25°23′
Chiron in Virgo
In Virgo, Chiron is the sense that no effort is ever quite enough, and a gift for patient, practical help.
4°39′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
27°37′
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 identity, his drive and his discipline (the Sun, Mars and Saturn) gather in Pisces, 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.
Mercury square Pluto almost exact at 0.1°
His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.
Uranus sextile North Node almost exact at 0.1°
Change helps him forward: he grows by trying the new.
The Sun sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.1°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
The Sun trine North Node almost exact at 0.2°
The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.
Mars conjunction Saturn close at 1.5°
Controlled force: he works with patience and grit, and he finishes what he starts.
The Sun trine Pluto close at 2.4°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

Pluto conjunction North Node close at 2.6°
A path of transformation: his direction in life asks him to change himself completely, more than once.

Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Mercury square North Node close at 2.7°
Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and he learns new ways of thinking to move on.
The Moon opposition Jupiter wide at 3.2°
His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.
Mercury conjunction Saturn wide at 7.5°
Serious thoughts: he says less than he knows, and what he says holds up.
Chart signature
What’s this?Close
The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.
Elements
Modes
Standing alone: Venus. It makes no major aspect, so his heart goes its own way, and he loves on his own terms.
