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 Gemini, 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 Gemini

    The direction her life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.

    11°26′

  • 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.

    5°59′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius

    In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.

    26°24′

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

Aspects by strength18 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.

  • The Sun quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.4°

    The wish to shine and the wish to be careful needed steady adjusting: she moved forward a step, then checked it.

  • Neptune trine North Node almost exact at 0.7°

    Imagination helped her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

  • Jupiter quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.9°

    Her hopes and her restlessness kept changing places, and she redrew her plans more than once.

  • Pluto sextile North Node close at 1.5°

    Deep change helped her forward: each time she started over, she went further.

  • Mars quincunx Saturn close at 1.6°

    When to push and when to wait took constant judging, and she learned timing the hard way.

  • Mars square Neptune close at 1.6°

    Drive and dreams mixed uneasily: the goal was clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.

  • The Moon square North Node close at 1.7°

    Home comforts and the way forward asked for different things, and growing meant leaving some familiar things behind.

    Purpose and drive in one place: she was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.2°

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

  • Mars quincunx North Node close at 2.3°

  • The Sun square Neptune wide at 3.6°

    The self she knew and the image others saw drifted apart at times, and she worked to keep hold of the real one.

  • Saturn sextile North Node wide at 3.9°

    Discipline helped her grow: patience and hard work kept her on course.

  • Mercury opposition Uranus wide at 4.0°

    Her mind ran ahead of the conversation: she said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.

  • The Sun quincunx North Node wide at 4.2°

    The way forward asked her to bend habits that felt like part of who she was.

  • Venus conjunction Jupiter wide at 4.9°

    Iron will and great patience: she built slowly and for keeps.

  • Uranus conjunction North Node wide at 7.6°

    An unusual path: her direction in life came through sudden turns and fresh starts.
