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 Leo, 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 Leo

    The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.

    17°22′

  • Chiron in Pisces

    In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.

    7°54′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Virgo

    In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.

    15°54′

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

Aspects by strength14 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.

  • Saturn quincunx Pluto almost exact at 0.2°

    He keeps adjusting between control and acceptance, and learns where each belongs.

  • Venus quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.5°

    What he wants from love and what love gives him keep needing adjustment, and he learns to see people as they are.

  • Mercury opposition Pluto almost exact at 0.8°

    His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

  • Mars opposition Pluto almost exact at 0.9°

    A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.

  • Mercury conjunction Mars close at 1.8°

    He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

  • Jupiter opposition Uranus close at 1.9°

    Restless hope: he wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • The Sun quincunx Uranus wide at 3.4°

    His restlessness keeps testing his plans, so he changes course more than once to stay true to himself.

  • Venus trine North Node wide at 3.8°

    Love and friendship move him forward: the people he cares for help him find his way.

  • Mercury trine Neptune wide at 4.0°

    He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.

  • The Sun opposition the Moon wide at 4.1°

    The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.

  • Neptune square North Node wide at 4.2°

    Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.

  • Saturn square Neptune wide at 4.6°

    The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.8°

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

  • Mars trine Neptune wide at 5.8°

    He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
