Planets

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.

29°35′
Moon in Scorpio
The Moon moved from Libra into Scorpio at 2:45 a.m. that day, local time: in Libra for a birth before then, in Scorpio 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 Pisces
The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
0°59′
Chiron in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.
7°19′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
22°29′
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 optimism (Jupiter in Aries) and his discipline (Saturn in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and his mind (Mercury in Capricorn) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
T-square

In his chart, his mind (Mercury in Capricorn) and his independence (Uranus in Cancer) face each other across the wheel, and his optimism (Jupiter in Aries) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

Grand cross
Four planets in a square, two pairs pulling against each other: strain on every side, and great staying power.
In his chart, his mind, his optimism, his discipline and his independence (Mercury in Capricorn, Jupiter in Aries, Saturn in Libra and Uranus in Cancer) make the cross, and he learns to hold all four at once.
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.
Venus sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.
Mars trine North Node almost exact at 0.7°
Courage moves him forward, and each bold step takes him further along his path.
The Sun square Mars almost exact at 0.7°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
Venus trine Pluto almost exact at 0.7°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.9°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury opposition Uranus close at 1.2°
His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mercury square Jupiter close at 1.5°
Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.
Jupiter square Uranus close at 2.7°
Restless hope: he wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.
Saturn square Uranus wide at 3.7°
Tradition and rebellion fight in him: he wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.
Mercury square Saturn wide at 5.0°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Jupiter opposition Saturn wide at 6.5°
Growth and caution keep checking each other: he moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.
Saturn conjunction Neptune wide at 6.8°
He takes dreams seriously and gives them structure, and his ideals have to prove themselves.
The Sun square Neptune wide at 7.9°
The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.
