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 Aquarius, 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 Aquarius

    The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.

    26°13′

  • Chiron in Capricorn

    In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.

    12°06′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Leo

    In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.

    5°08′

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 optimism (the Sun, Venus and Jupiter) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Aspects by strength15 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.

  • Venus sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.2°

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

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.4°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • The Moon trine Venus close at 2.3°

    He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

  • Saturn square Uranus close at 2.4°

    Tradition and rebellion fight in him: he wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.

  • Mercury sextile North Node close at 2.4°

    His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.

  • The Moon opposition Uranus close at 2.5°

    His moods change without warning, and he wants closeness and room to breathe at the same time.

  • Mars opposition Jupiter close at 2.6°

    He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

  • The Sun quincunx Neptune wide at 3.3°

    He keeps redrawing the line between the life he has and the life he imagines.

  • The Sun square North Node wide at 3.4°

    Being himself and growing ask for different things, and his biggest steps forward come when he stretches past his habits.

  • The Sun square Pluto wide at 3.7°

    Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

  • Mercury conjunction Jupiter wide at 4.9°

    He loves ideas, the bigger the better, and he can talk anyone into hoping.

  • Mars trine Uranus wide at 5.2°

    Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

  • Venus opposition Mars wide at 5.3°

    In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.

  • Neptune trine North Node wide at 6.7°

    Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

  • Pluto opposition North Node wide at 7.1°

    Old attachments hold him back from the way forward, and he grows by letting some things go.
