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 Gemini
The direction his life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.
16°39′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
28°02′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
29°28′
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.
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 and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury and Pluto) gather in Gemini, and that part of life drew his attention first.

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.
Mercury sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.4°
A patient, exact mind: he chose every word, and his thinking got sharper with practice.
The Moon conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.4°
Tenderness through and through: he needed beauty and affection the way others needed air.
Mercury quincunx Uranus close at 1.0°
Ordinary logic and sudden insight needed constant translating, and he spent time explaining how he got there.
Saturn square Uranus close at 1.4°
Tradition and rebellion fought in him: he wanted security and freedom, and could rarely have both at once.
Mars trine Neptune close at 1.6°
He worked for ideals: his drive came alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
The Sun conjunction Pluto close at 1.8°
Intensity at the centre: he wanted the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remade himself more than once to reach it.
