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 Sagittarius
The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
10°57′
Chiron in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.
21°07′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
24°00′
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 mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew his attention first.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.

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 Sun quincunx Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°
He kept fitting his ambitions to his purpose, and some big plans had to wait.
Mercury sextile Mars close at 1.2°
A quick, direct mind: he made decisions fast and said what he meant.
Uranus conjunction North Node close at 1.4°
An unusual path: his direction in life came through sudden turns and fresh starts.
The Sun opposition Saturn close at 1.8°
Self-belief came slowly and had to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counted.
The Moon conjunction Pluto close at 2.4°
Intense, private feelings: he kept an inner life few people saw, and he guarded it well.
The Moon opposition North Node wide at 3.2°
Home comforts and the way forward asked for different things, and growing meant leaving some familiar things behind.

Pluto opposition North Node wide at 5.6°
Old attachments held him back from the way forward, and he grew by letting some things go.
The Sun conjunction Neptune wide at 6.5°
He took in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gave them back as something new.
