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 Virgo
The direction his life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
0°10′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
6°42′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
14°20′
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.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his feelings and his heart (the Moon and Venus, together in Taurus) and his imagination (Neptune in Scorpio) face each other across the wheel, and his optimism (Jupiter in Aquarius) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his mind (Mercury in Cancer) and his intensity (Pluto in Virgo) both point at his optimism (Jupiter in Aquarius), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
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 sextile Mars almost exact at 0.2°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
Mercury trine Neptune almost exact at 0.6°
He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.
The Moon opposition Neptune close at 1.0°
His feelings and his imagination pull in different directions: he lives between what is real and what he longs for.
Saturn quincunx North Node close at 1.1°
Responsibility and growth need steady balancing, and he learns which duties to keep.
Jupiter quincunx Pluto close at 1.1°
The bigger the stakes grow, the more he has to rethink his aims.
The Moon square Jupiter close at 1.1°
His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.

Venus square Jupiter wide at 3.4°
