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 Virgo
The direction his life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
19°47′
Chiron in Leo
In Leo, Chiron is a quiet doubt about deserving the light, and a gift for helping others shine without apology.
14°33′
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus
In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.
29°02′
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.
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 mind (Mercury in Scorpio) and his heart (Venus in Capricorn) both point at his optimism (Jupiter in Gemini), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
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 quincunx Jupiter almost exact at 0.4°
His taste and his appetite for more need adjusting: he keeps learning what is enough.
Venus trine North Node close at 1.0°
Love and friendship move him forward: the people he cares for help him find his way.
Uranus trine Neptune close at 1.3°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Jupiter square North Node close at 1.5°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
Mercury quincunx Jupiter close at 1.8°
The facts and the bigger picture need constant reconciling, and he keeps checking one against the other.
The Sun sextile Neptune close at 2.1°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
