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 her life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.

    7°13′

  • Chiron in Pisces

    In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.

    28°52′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

    In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.

    19°00′

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 her chart, her drive, her optimism and her independence (Mars, Jupiter and Uranus) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws her 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.

  • Venus trine Pluto almost exact at 0.1°

    She loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she forms change both people.

  • Jupiter conjunction Uranus almost exact at 0.5°

    An inventive optimism: she believes in the new, and she takes leaps others would not.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury almost exact at 0.7°

    Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.

  • The Moon square Pluto close at 1.8°

    She loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes her a long time.

  • Venus sextile Neptune close at 1.8°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: she sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.9°

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

  • The Sun sextile Mars close at 2.2°

    Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.

  • Mercury sextile Mars close at 2.9°

    A quick, direct mind: she makes decisions fast and says what she means.

  • Mars opposition Saturn close at 3.0°

    Drive with the brakes on: she wants to move, something holds her back, and the friction makes her tough.

  • Uranus opposition North Node wide at 3.7°

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

  • Jupiter opposition North Node wide at 4.3°

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

  • The Sun trine Saturn wide at 5.2°

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

  • Mercury trine North Node wide at 5.8°

    Her way with words helps her find her direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.

  • Mercury trine Saturn wide at 5.9°

    A patient, exact mind: she chooses every word, and her thinking gets sharper with practice.

  • Venus square Saturn wide at 6.2°

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

  • The Sun trine North Node wide at 6.5°

    The direction her life takes suits her: being herself and growing go hand in hand.
