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 Libra, 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 Libra

    The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.

    1°49′

  • Chiron in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.

    23°04′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

    In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.

    12°02′

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

Aspects by strength14 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.

  • Venus sextile Uranus exact at 0.0°

    He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

  • Saturn trine Pluto almost exact at 0.4°

    Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.

  • The Sun square Pluto almost exact at 0.6°

    Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

  • The Moon conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.8°

    His feelings run hot and fast, and he protects the people he loves fiercely.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.6°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • Mercury conjunction Mars close at 1.9°

    He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

  • Saturn sextile Neptune close at 2.0°

    Practical dreams: he gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.

  • Saturn square North Node wide at 3.9°

    Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.

  • Mercury square Uranus wide at 4.2°

    His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.

  • The Sun conjunction Jupiter wide at 4.8°

    Optimism at the centre of him: he expects things to go well, and that confidence wins people over.

  • The Sun sextile North Node wide at 5.0°

    The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.

  • Jupiter square Pluto wide at 5.4°

    He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.

  • Mars square Uranus wide at 6.1°

    Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.

  • The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 9.6°

    Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
