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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
26°17′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
2°57′
Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.
10°22′
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 drive and his intensity (the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Mars and Pluto) 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.
Mercury conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.8°
He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.
Saturn quincunx Neptune close at 1.4°
Duty and dreams keep trading places as the priority.
Uranus trine Neptune close at 2.0°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Mars sextile Uranus close at 2.2°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
Pluto trine North Node close at 2.7°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
Mars square Saturn close at 2.8°
Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.

Mercury sextile Uranus close at 3.0°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.
Mercury square Saturn wide at 3.6°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

The Sun trine Jupiter wide at 4.3°
His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.

Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.
Venus trine Saturn wide at 5.2°
Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.
Jupiter square North Node wide at 5.9°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 7.1°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 7.9°
Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
