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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Aries, 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 Aries

    The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.

    7°39′

  • Chiron in Gemini

    In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.

    23°07′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Cancer

    In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.

    23°52′

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

PatternsStellium
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 mind and his drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Aspects by strength16 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.

  • Pluto quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.3°

    He keeps giving up a little control to keep growing.

  • Mercury quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.4°

    Speaking freely and speaking carefully take constant balancing, and he weighs words before letting them go.

  • Venus opposition Saturn almost exact at 0.4°

    Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.6°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • Jupiter trine Uranus almost exact at 0.6°

    Sudden openings: he spots new chances early and jumps at them.

  • Neptune square North Node almost exact at 0.9°

    Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.

  • The Moon conjunction Venus close at 1.6°

    Tenderness through and through: he needs beauty and affection the way others need air.

  • The Moon opposition Saturn close at 2.0°

    Feelings come second to duty: he holds himself to a high standard, even in private.

  • Mars quincunx Uranus close at 2.1°

    Effort and restlessness keep catching each other off guard, and his plans change at short notice.

  • Mars square Jupiter close at 2.7°

    He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

  • The Sun opposition Neptune wide at 4.2°

    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 trine Pluto wide at 4.7°

    A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

  • The Sun square North Node wide at 5.1°

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

  • Mercury conjunction Mars wide at 5.9°

    He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

  • Saturn conjunction Uranus wide at 7.7°

    Disciplined originality: he builds new things on solid foundations.

  • The Sun opposition Uranus wide at 8.2°

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