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.
Sun in Capricorn
The Architect. Ambitious, patient and dry.
26°40′
Moon in Pisces
The Moon moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 11:04 a.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.

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 Cancer
The direction her life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.
11°10′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
11°43′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
0°26′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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 Moon conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.3°
Tenderness through and through: she needs beauty and affection the way others need air.
Jupiter quincunx Pluto close at 1.4°
The bigger the stakes grow, the more she has to rethink her aims.
Jupiter square North Node close at 1.4°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
Uranus sextile North Node close at 1.6°
Change helps her forward: she grows by trying the new.
Pluto sextile North Node close at 2.8°
Deep change helps her forward: each time she starts over, she goes further.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.6°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

Uranus conjunction Pluto wide at 4.4°
Born into a time of upheaval: she wants radical change, and wants it at once.
Saturn square Neptune wide at 4.7°

A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and she sees answers others miss.
Mercury opposition North Node wide at 6.3°
Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and she learns new ways of thinking to move on.
Neptune trine North Node wide at 6.4°
Imagination helps her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 6.9°
Purpose and drive in one place: she is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
