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 Cancer
The direction his life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.
28°29′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
25°04′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
6°30′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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 conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.5°
Serious from early on: purpose and duty were one thing to him, and he treated his own life as work to be done well.
Mars square North Node almost exact at 0.5°
Old fights and the way forward disagreed, and he grew by choosing which battles mattered.
The Sun sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°
His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.
Jupiter sextile Saturn close at 1.2°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreamed big and planned carefully, and both helped.
The Moon square Mercury close at 1.3°
His head and his feelings argued: he knew what he thought before he knew what he felt, or the other way round.
Saturn trine Pluto close at 2.5°
Endurance: he could work through hard times, and what he built survived pressure.
