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.

  • Sun in Cancer

    The Protector. Home, memory and care.

    6°52′

  • Moon in Pisces

    The Moon moved from Pisces into Aries at 6:56 p.m. that day, local time: in Pisces for a birth before then, in Aries for one after.

    26°33′

  • Mercury in Cancerretrograde

    Mercury moved from Cancer into Gemini at 12:58 p.m. that day, local time: in Cancer for a birth before then, in Gemini for one after.

    0°01′

  • Venus in Cancerretrograde

    The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.

    0°22′

  • Mars in Virgo

    The Craftsperson. The craftsman’s drive.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Taurus, 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 Taurus

    The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.

    12°26′

  • Chiron in Scorpio

    In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.

    18°44′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.

    27°29′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

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.

  • Mercury conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.3°

    Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.

  • The Moon square Uranus almost exact at 0.4°

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

  • Pluto square North Node close at 1.0°

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

  • Neptune quincunx North Node close at 2.2°

    She grows by testing her ideals against real life, again and again.

  • Jupiter trine Saturn close at 2.4°

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

  • Mars square Jupiter close at 2.8°

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

  • Mercury conjunction Uranus close at 3.0°

    She thinks in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.2°

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

  • The Sun square Neptune wide at 3.4°

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

  • Venus conjunction Uranus wide at 3.4°

    Love at first sight, and freedom after it: the different and the new win her heart.

  • Jupiter opposition Uranus wide at 4.6°

    Restless hope: she wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.

  • The Sun sextile North Node wide at 5.6°

    The direction her life takes suits her: being herself and growing go hand in hand.

  • The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 6.5°

    Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to her core.

  • Saturn conjunction Pluto wide at 6.5°

    Iron will and great patience: she builds slowly and for keeps.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 6.8°

    Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.

  • Mercury opposition Jupiter wide at 7.6°

    Big ideas and loose details: she thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from her.
