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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
27°16′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
5°33′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
19°58′
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.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his heart (Venus in Gemini) and his independence (Uranus in Leo) both point at his discipline (Saturn in Capricorn), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his 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.
Venus quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.2°
He keeps weighing pleasure against duty, and joy comes once the work is done.
Venus sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.6°
He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.
Saturn quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.8°
When to keep the rules and when to break them takes constant deciding.
The Sun square Neptune close at 1.3°
The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.
Saturn quincunx North Node close at 1.5°
Responsibility and growth need steady balancing, and he learns which duties to keep.
Venus sextile North Node close at 1.7°
Love and friendship move him forward: the people he cares for help him find his way.

Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.8°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Moon opposition Mars close at 1.9°

Uranus conjunction North Node close at 2.3°
An unusual path: his direction in life comes through sudden turns and fresh starts.
Mercury sextile Mars close at 2.6°
A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.
Mercury opposition Saturn wide at 4.0°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
The Sun opposition Jupiter wide at 5.7°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Jupiter conjunction Saturn wide at 5.8°
Optimism with a plan: his hopes are practical, and he builds them slowly into something real.
Venus square Mars wide at 6.4°
In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.
Mars trine Saturn wide at 6.6°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
