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 Pisces
The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
13°21′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
7°10′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
17°08′
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 feelings, his discipline and his independence (the Moon, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Sagittarius, 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.
Saturn conjunction Uranus almost exact at 0.1°
Disciplined originality: he builds new things on solid foundations.
Mercury quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.4°
His habits of thought need small, steady changes to fit the way forward.
Venus opposition North Node almost exact at 0.7°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
Venus sextile Pluto close at 1.0°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
The Moon square North Node close at 1.0°
Home comforts and the way forward ask for different things, and growing means leaving some familiar things behind.
Pluto trine North Node close at 1.6°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
