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 Scorpio

    The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.

    29°13′

  • Moon in Taurus

    The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 7:53 a.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.

    2°15′

  • Mercury in Sagittarius

    The Philosopher. The big picture.

    2°18′

  • Venus in Scorpio

    The Devotee. All or nothing.

    13°48′

  • Mars in Aquarius

    The Rebel. Rebel with a cause.

    12°18′

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Pisces, 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 Pisces

    The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.

    18°38′

  • 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.

    2°36′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Cancer

    In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.

    28°16′

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 identity, his heart and his imagination (the Sun, Venus and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.

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.

  • The Sun conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.8°

    He takes in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gives them back as something new.

  • Mercury quincunx Saturn close at 1.4°

    Speaking freely and speaking carefully take constant balancing, and he weighs words before letting them go.

  • The Moon conjunction Saturn close at 1.4°

    Self-contained: he keeps his feelings in order, and he gives comfort in practical ways rather than in words.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.5°

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

  • Venus square Mars close at 1.5°

    In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.

  • The Sun sextile Pluto close at 2.2°

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

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 3.1°

    His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

  • Mercury conjunction Neptune wide at 3.8°

    A poet’s mind: he hears what goes unsaid, and his best ideas come from somewhere hard to explain.

  • The Sun quincunx Saturn wide at 4.4°

    The wish to shine and the wish to be careful need steady adjusting: he moves forward a step, then checks it.

  • Mars trine Uranus wide at 4.8°

    Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

  • Venus trine North Node wide at 4.8°

    Love and friendship move him forward: the people he cares for help him find his way.
