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 Libra, 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 Libra

    The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.

    22°49′

  • Chiron in Taurus

    In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.

    4°10′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

    In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.

    5°04′

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 mind, his heart and his drive (Mercury, Venus and Mars) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Aspects by strength16 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.

  • Jupiter opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.1°

    His hopes run ahead of what is real, and he learns to check a beautiful idea against the facts.

  • Venus conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.3°

    Magnetic: affection and desire come together in him, and people notice.

  • The Sun square the Moon almost exact at 0.4°

    The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.

  • Saturn sextile Pluto close at 1.4°

    Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.

  • Jupiter sextile Saturn close at 1.8°

    Hope and caution in balance: he dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.

  • Saturn trine Neptune close at 1.9°

    Practical dreams: he gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.

  • The Sun opposition Neptune close at 3.0°

    The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.

  • The Sun conjunction Jupiter wide at 3.1°

    Optimism at the centre of him: he expects things to go well, and that confidence wins people over.

  • Jupiter trine Pluto wide at 3.2°

    Ambition with depth: he knows how to build influence, and he uses it to make big changes.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.2°

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

  • Saturn square Uranus wide at 4.5°

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

  • The Sun sextile Saturn wide at 4.9°

    Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

  • The Sun trine North Node wide at 5.1°

    The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.

  • Venus opposition Uranus wide at 6.1°

    Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.

  • The Sun trine Pluto wide at 6.3°

    A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

  • Mars opposition Uranus wide at 6.4°

    Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.
