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 Aries, 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 Aries

    The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.

    0°50′

  • Chiron in Pisces

    In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.

    14°53′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Pisces

    In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.

    9°37′

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

PatternsStellium
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 discipline and his intensity (the Sun, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Gemini, and that part of life drew his attention first.

Aspects by strength12 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.

  • Saturn trine Uranus almost exact at 0.3°

    Old and new sat well together: he could change things without throwing out what worked.

  • Venus sextile Pluto close at 1.0°

    He loved with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he formed changed both people.

  • Pluto square North Node close at 1.9°

    Old attachments held him back from the way forward, and he grew by letting some things go.

  • The Sun conjunction Saturn close at 2.5°

    Serious from early on: purpose and duty were one thing to him, and he treated his own life as work to be done well.

  • Mercury sextile Neptune close at 2.8°

    He thought in pictures and music: his words carried a mood, and his imagination gave his ideas colour.

  • The Sun trine Uranus close at 2.9°

    Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.

  • Mars square Jupiter wide at 3.2°

    He took on more than any one person could, and his boldness ran ahead of his plans.

  • The Sun sextile North Node wide at 3.8°

    The direction his life took suited him: being himself and growing went hand in hand.

  • Venus square Neptune wide at 4.0°

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

  • Jupiter opposition Neptune wide at 6.8°

    His hopes ran ahead of what was real, and he learned to check a beautiful idea against the facts.

  • Neptune trine North Node wide at 6.9°

    Imagination helped him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 7.8°

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