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 Sagittarius
The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
26°13′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
3°11′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
14°30′
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 feelings, his mind, his heart and his independence (the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus and Uranus) gather in Cancer, 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.
Neptune sextile Pluto exact at 0.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun square Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
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 quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.5°
The way forward asks him to bend habits that feel like part of who he is.
Neptune sextile North Node almost exact at 0.7°
Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
Pluto trine North Node almost exact at 0.7°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
Venus trine Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.
