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.
Sun in Scorpio
The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.
5°26′
Moon in Taurus
The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 5:17 a.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
3°48′
Mercury in Scorpioretrograde
The Investigator. Hears what was left out.
20°18′

The Devotee. All or nothing.

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 Taurus
The direction his life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
23°26′
Chiron in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.
12°43′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
0°16′
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 his chart, his identity, his mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In his chart, his drive, his discipline and his intensity (Mars, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his 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.
Mercury conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.2°
Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
Mars conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.7°
Concentrated force: when he wants something, he goes after it with everything.
Mercury square Saturn close at 1.2°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Venus square Saturn close at 1.4°
Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.
The Sun opposition the Moon close at 1.6°
The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.
Saturn square North Node close at 1.9°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
