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.

The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.

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 Taurus
The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
4°54′
Chiron in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.
24°41′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
9°54′
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 her chart, her identity, her mind and her imagination (the Sun, Mercury and Neptune) gather in Libra, and that part of life drew her 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.
Mars quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.1°
Effort and restlessness kept catching each other off guard, and her plans changed at short notice.
The Sun sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.4°
Her confidence came easily and spread: she thought big, and other people wanted to come along.
Mercury trine Uranus close at 1.3°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and she saw answers others missed.
Saturn trine North Node close at 1.8°
Discipline helped her grow: patience and hard work kept her on course.
Saturn sextile Uranus close at 2.6°
Old and new sat well together: she could change things without throwing out what worked.
Mars square Saturn close at 2.7°
Drive with the brakes on: she wanted to move, something held her back, and the friction made her tough.
