Planets

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.
Sun in Capricorn
The Architect. Ambitious, patient and dry.

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
North Node moved from Cancer into Gemini at 12:19 p.m. that day, local time: in Cancer for a birth before then, in Gemini for one after.
0°00′
Chiron in Libra
In Libra, Chiron is a soft spot around being chosen and kept, and a gift for making others feel met as equals.
20°20′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
16°28′
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 feelings and his heart (the Sun, the Moon and Venus) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his independence (Uranus in Gemini) and his intensity (Pluto in Leo) both point at his identity (the Sun in Capricorn), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
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 Sun conjunction the Moon almost exact at 0.2°
Born near a new Moon, so what he wants and what he needs move as one: single-minded, and hard to talk out of anything.
Mercury quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.5°
Speaking freely and speaking carefully take constant balancing, and he weighs words before letting them go.
The Sun quincunx Pluto close at 1.3°
He keeps rebuilding himself to fit what life asks, and control is the hardest thing to give up.
The Sun quincunx Uranus close at 1.8°
His restlessness keeps testing his plans, so he changes course more than once to stay true to himself.
Mars square Jupiter close at 2.3°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.6°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
