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 Sagittarius
The direction her life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
14°56′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
25°58′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
0°30′
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 her chart, her identity, her mind and her intensity (the Sun, Mercury and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws her attention first.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In her chart, her feelings, her heart and her independence (the Moon, Venus and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws her 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.
The Sun sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.8°
Independence comes easily: she does things her own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
The Moon opposition Mars almost exact at 0.8°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: she reacts first, and her courage comes from the same place as her flashes of anger.
Venus sextile Pluto close at 1.3°
She loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she forms change both people.
Neptune square North Node close at 1.6°
Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.
Uranus quincunx North Node close at 2.1°
Sudden changes keep shifting the way forward, and she adapts each time.
Mercury square Saturn close at 2.2°
She doubts her own ideas before anyone else can, and so she checks every one twice.
