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 Aquarius, 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 Aquarius

    The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.

    4°58′

  • Chiron in Aries

    In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.

    11°03′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Libra

    In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.

    29°50′

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

Aspects by strength20 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.

  • Neptune sextile North Node almost exact at 0.2°

    Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

  • Mercury sextile Mars almost exact at 0.3°

    A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

  • The Sun sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.4°

    His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.

  • Jupiter square Pluto close at 1.4°

    He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.

  • Saturn trine Pluto close at 1.4°

    Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.

  • The Sun quincunx Pluto close at 1.8°

    He keeps rebuilding himself to fit what life asks, and control is the hardest thing to give up.
