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 Pisces, 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 Pisces

    The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.

    25°57′

  • Chiron in Taurus

    In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.

    21°13′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aries

    In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.

    27°27′

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

PatternsStellium, Yod
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 identity, his mind, his drive and his independence (the Sun, Mercury, Mars and Uranus) gather in Aries, and that part of life drew his attention first.

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 drive (Mars in Aries) and his discipline (Saturn in Aquarius) both point at his imagination (Neptune in Virgo), the part of him that kept needing adjustment and gave his life its focus.

Aspects by strength17 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.

  • Mars quincunx Neptune exact at 0.0°

    His drive and his imagination spoke different languages: he went after something before he could say what it was.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury almost exact at 0.1°

    His mind and his identity were close together: he spoke as he thought, and his ideas were part of who he was.

  • Venus square Neptune almost exact at 0.1°

    He loved the dream of a person, and the real one had to compete with it.

  • Venus sextile Mars almost exact at 0.1°

    Charm and desire worked together: he knew what he wanted in love and how to win it.

  • The Sun square Pluto almost exact at 0.3°

    Nothing about him was halfway: he insisted on running his own life, and the struggle made him formidable.

  • Mercury square Pluto almost exact at 0.4°

    His words had force: he spoke to persuade, and he kept his own counsel until the right moment.

  • Uranus square Pluto almost exact at 0.6°

    Upheaval and the urge to break free ran strong, and he pushed for change rather than waiting for it.

  • The Sun conjunction Uranus almost exact at 0.9°

    Born original: his identity and his need for freedom were the same thing, and he surprised people, himself included.

  • Mercury conjunction Uranus close at 1.0°

    He thought in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.

  • Mars sextile Saturn close at 1.7°

    His drive and his discipline worked together easily: he could push hard and keep going.

  • Saturn quincunx Neptune close at 1.7°

    Duty and dreams kept trading places as the priority.

  • Venus trine Saturn close at 1.9°

    Loyal in love: he chose carefully, and what he built with people lasted.

  • The Moon conjunction Venus close at 2.1°

    Tenderness through and through: he needed beauty and affection the way others needed air.

  • The Moon square Neptune close at 2.2°

    His feelings and his imagination pulled in different directions: he lived between what was real and what he longed for.

  • Pluto trine North Node wide at 6.0°

    Deep change helped him forward: each time he started over, he went further.

  • Jupiter trine Uranus wide at 6.8°

    Sudden openings: he spotted new chances early and jumped at them.

  • The Sun trine Jupiter wide at 7.7°

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