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.
Sun in Libra
The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.

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 Aries
The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
16°41′
Chiron in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.
5°00′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
17°58′
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 imagination (the Sun, Mercury and Neptune) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws 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.
Venus sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.1°
Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.
The Moon conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.2°
Tenderness through and through: he needs beauty and affection the way others need air.
Mercury sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.6°
A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.
Pluto trine North Node almost exact at 0.8°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
Venus square Mars close at 1.3°
In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.
Mercury opposition North Node close at 1.4°
Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and he learns new ways of thinking to move on.

The Moon square Mars close at 1.5°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.
Neptune opposition North Node close at 2.3°
Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.

Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.1°

Mars sextile Neptune wide at 3.1°

Mercury conjunction Neptune wide at 3.6°
A poet’s mind: he hears what goes unsaid, and his best ideas come from somewhere hard to explain.
Mercury square Jupiter wide at 4.3°
Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.
Venus square Pluto wide at 4.9°
Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.
Mars trine North Node wide at 5.4°
Courage moves him forward, and each bold step takes him further along his path.
Jupiter square North Node wide at 5.7°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
Mars conjunction Pluto wide at 6.2°
