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 Sagittarius
The Explorer. Honest, free and far-seeing.

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 Virgo
The direction her life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
6°35′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
16°49′
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus
In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.
17°30′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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 conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
Controlled force: she worked with patience and grit, and she finished what she started.
Venus sextile Mars close at 1.4°
Charm and desire worked together: she knew what she wanted in love and how to win it.
Mercury trine Neptune close at 1.6°
She thought in pictures and music: her words carried a mood, and her imagination gave her ideas colour.
Uranus trine Pluto close at 1.7°
She could help change things at the root, and upheaval suited her.
Venus sextile Saturn close at 2.2°
Loyal in love: she chose carefully, and what she built with people lasted.
The Sun quincunx Pluto close at 2.4°
She kept rebuilding herself to fit what life asked, and control was the hardest thing to give up.

The Sun square North Node close at 2.9°
Being herself and growing asked for different things, and her biggest steps forward came when she stretched past her habits.
The Sun square Uranus wide at 4.2°
She needed room to be herself, and any rule that fit too tightly got broken.
Jupiter square North Node wide at 4.8°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward went different ways, and real growth came from the harder one.
Mercury square Uranus wide at 5.1°
Her mind ran ahead of the conversation: she said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.
Venus trine North Node wide at 6.0°
Love and friendship moved her forward: the people she cared for helped her find her way.
Uranus opposition North Node wide at 7.1°
The way forward asked for steadiness, and the urge for change kept breaking in.
The Sun conjunction Jupiter wide at 7.7°
Optimism at the centre of her: she expected things to go well, and that confidence won people over.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 9.2°
Her mind and her identity were close together: she spoke as she thought, and her ideas were part of who she was.
