Planets

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 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 Gemini
The direction her life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.
11°45′
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.
2°42′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
23°11′
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 mind, her heart and her optimism (Mercury, Venus and Jupiter) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws 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.
The Moon square Mercury almost exact at 0.2°
Her head and her feelings argue: she knows what she thinks before she knows what she feels, or the other way round.
The Moon trine Uranus almost exact at 0.7°
Her feelings like freedom: she needs space in close ties and gives it back just as easily.
Jupiter square Pluto almost exact at 0.9°
She wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes her life.
Mercury quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.9°
Ordinary logic and sudden insight need constant translating, and she spends time explaining how she gets there.
The Sun trine Saturn close at 1.1°
Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.
Neptune trine North Node close at 1.5°
Imagination helps her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
