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 Cancer

    The Protector. Home, memory and care.

    14°00′

  • Moon in Cancer

    The Moon moved from Cancer into Leo at 12:34 p.m. that day, local time: in Cancer for a birth before then, in Leo for one after.

    29°39′

  • Mercury in Cancerretrograde

    The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.

    16°28′

  • Venus in Taurus

    The Keeper. Slow, sensual and loyal.

    28°26′

  • Mars in Cancer

    The Defender. Fierce for its own.

    11°51′

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Libra, 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 Libra

    The direction her life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.

    23°30′

  • 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.

    13°56′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.

    9°43′

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

Aspects by strength16 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.

  • The Sun sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.1°

    Her confidence came easily and spread: she thought big, and other people wanted to come along.

  • Uranus trine Pluto almost exact at 0.9°

    She could help change things at the root, and upheaval suited her.

  • The Sun conjunction Mars close at 2.2°

    Purpose and drive in one place: she was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

  • Mars sextile Jupiter close at 2.2°

    Big drive and big confidence: she went after large goals, and her enthusiasm carried others along.

  • Mercury sextile Jupiter close at 2.4°

    A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learned easily, told a good story and saw the big picture.

  • Mars trine Uranus close at 2.4°

    Quick and inventive in action: she moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.

The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.

Elements

Fire · instinct and enthusiasm1
Earth · the practical and the solid3
Air · ideas and people0
Water · feeling and intuition6

Modes

Fixed · holding steady2
Mutable · adapting3

The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.

No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through took deliberate effort.
