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 Aries
The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
20°41′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
20°03′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
29°07′
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 his chart, his identity, his mind, his heart and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Pluto) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his 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 Sun square Mars exact at 0.0°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
Uranus trine North Node almost exact at 0.1°
Change helps him forward: he grows by trying the new.
Venus conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
A deep, private heart: he draws people in and keeps some feelings locked away.
Mars sextile Uranus close at 2.2°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
The Sun quincunx North Node close at 2.3°
The way forward asks him to bend habits that feel like part of who he is.
Mars sextile North Node close at 2.4°
Courage moves him forward, and each bold step takes him further along his path.

Jupiter square Saturn wide at 3.1°
Growth and caution keep checking each other: he moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.

Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.9°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury trine Jupiter wide at 4.2°
A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 5.8°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
Mercury square Mars wide at 5.8°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.
