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 Cancer
The direction her life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.
10°38′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
12°44′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
2°32′
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 her chart, her identity, her drive and her discipline (the Sun, Mars and Saturn) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life draws her attention first.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In her chart, her identity (the Sun in Aquarius) and her optimism (Jupiter in Aries) both point at her intensity (Pluto in Virgo), the part of her that keeps needing adjustment and gives her life its focus.
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.
The Moon conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.1°
Feelings without edges: other people’s sorrow and joy reach her as if they are her own.
The Sun sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.4°
Her confidence comes easily and spreads: she thinks big, and other people want to come along.
The Moon square Mars almost exact at 0.6°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: she reacts first, and her courage comes from the same place as her flashes of anger.
Mars square Neptune almost exact at 0.7°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.
Mercury sextile Venus almost exact at 0.9°
A graceful mind: she speaks kindly and well, and she knows how to say a hard thing gently.
Uranus sextile North Node close at 1.7°
Change helps her forward: she grows by trying the new.
