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 Leo

    The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.

    16°07′

  • Moon in Capricorn

    The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 9:15 p.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.

    25°24′

  • Mercury in Virgo

    The Analyst. The editor’s eye.

    11°10′

  • Venus in Virgo

    Venus moved from Virgo into Libra at 7:27 p.m. that day, local time: in Virgo for a birth before then, in Libra for one after.

    29°39′

  • Mars in Leo

    The Leader. Courage with an audience.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Scorpio, 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 Scorpio

    The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.

    23°14′

  • Chiron in Cancer

    In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.

    6°45′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn

    In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.

    15°00′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

PatternsStellium, Yod
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 drive and his intensity (the Sun, Mars and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his 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 his chart, his heart (Venus in Virgo) and his intensity (Pluto in Leo) both point at his optimism (Jupiter in Aquarius), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.

Aspects by strength14 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.

  • Venus sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.5°

    He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.

  • Venus quincunx Jupiter almost exact at 0.9°

    His taste and his appetite for more need adjusting: he keeps learning what is enough.

  • Jupiter quincunx Pluto close at 1.4°

    The bigger the stakes grow, the more he has to rethink his aims.

  • The Sun square Uranus close at 1.6°

    He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

  • Saturn quincunx Neptune close at 1.6°

    Duty and dreams keep trading places as the priority.

  • The Sun trine Saturn close at 1.9°

    Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • Uranus trine Neptune close at 1.9°

    Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.

  • Neptune sextile North Node wide at 3.6°

    Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

  • The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 4.9°

    Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

  • Uranus opposition North Node wide at 5.5°

    The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.

  • Jupiter square North Node wide at 5.6°

    Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.

  • Mars square Uranus wide at 6.5°

    Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.

  • Mercury trine Uranus wide at 6.6°

    A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.

  • The Sun square North Node wide at 7.1°

    Being himself and growing ask for different things, and his biggest steps forward come when he stretches past his habits.

Chart signatureMost in earth signs
What’s this?Close

The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.

Elements

Fire · instinct and enthusiasm4
Earth · the practical and the solid5
Air · ideas and people1
Water · feeling and intuition0

Modes

Cardinal · starting things2
Fixed · holding steady5
Mutable · adapting3

The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.

No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
