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 Taurus, 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 Taurus

    The direction his life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.

    18°14′

  • Chiron in Gemini

    In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.

    7°50′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aries

    In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.

    28°19′

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

Aspects by strength17 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 0.3°

    Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

  • Jupiter sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.3°

    Sudden openings: he spots new chances early and jumps at them.

  • The Moon opposition Pluto almost exact at 0.4°

    He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.5°

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

  • The Moon trine Neptune almost exact at 0.9°

    He picks up what others feel before a word is said, and his compassion reaches far.

  • Uranus quincunx North Node close at 1.4°

    Sudden changes keep shifting the way forward, and he adapts each time.
