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 Aries

    The Pioneer. First in, first to try.

    1°25′

  • Moon in Aquarius

    The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 4:29 a.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.

    4°26′

  • Mercury in Aries

    The Spark. First to speak.

    16°14′

  • Venus in Aquarius

    The Kindred Spirit. Friend first, lover too.

    21°50′

  • Mars in Capricorn

    The Achiever. The disciplined climb.

    6°12′

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.

    23°03′

  • Chiron in Aries

    In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.

    9°17′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Virgo

    In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.

    22°12′

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

Aspects by strength11 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 conjunction North Node close at 1.2°

    Following his heart is following his path: the people and pleasures he loves lead him forward.

  • The Sun trine Neptune close at 1.6°

    Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

  • Venus square Saturn close at 2.6°

    Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

  • The Sun opposition Pluto wide at 3.1°

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

  • Jupiter conjunction Neptune wide at 3.5°

    A dreamer’s faith: he believes in something larger, and his compassion and his hopes go together.

  • Saturn square North Node wide at 3.8°

    Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • Mercury opposition Uranus wide at 4.3°

    His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.7°

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

  • The Sun square Mars wide at 4.8°

    He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.

  • The Sun trine Jupiter wide at 5.0°

    His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.

  • Mars square Uranus wide at 5.8°

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

No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
