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 his life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.

    9°25′

  • Chiron in Taurus

    In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.

    8°52′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio

    In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.

    22°47′

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

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 sextile Mars almost exact at 0.2°

    Charm and desire worked together: he knew what he wanted in love and how to win it.

  • The Moon trine Uranus almost exact at 0.2°

    His feelings liked freedom: he needed space in close ties and gave it back just as easily.

  • Venus sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.9°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: he saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.

  • Mars trine Neptune close at 1.0°

    He worked for ideals: his drive came alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

  • Saturn quincunx Pluto close at 1.4°

    He kept adjusting between control and acceptance, and learned where each belonged.

  • The Sun sextile Neptune close at 2.1°

    Imagination and identity worked together: he could become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
