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 Pisces
The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
26°32′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
18°42′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
20°36′
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 mind and his drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Aquarius, 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.
Mars opposition Jupiter almost exact at 0.5°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Mars sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.8°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
Jupiter trine Uranus close at 1.2°
Sudden openings: he spots new chances early and jumps at them.
The Sun opposition Jupiter close at 1.2°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Venus conjunction North Node close at 1.4°
Following his heart is following his path: the people and pleasures he loves lead him forward.
Mercury quincunx Neptune close at 1.4°
Meaning comes to him before the words do, and clear speech follows the feeling.
