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 Virgo
The Fixer. Precise, useful and kind.

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 Aries
The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
17°25′
Chiron in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.
3°29′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
15°14′
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 mind, his heart and his imagination (Mercury, Venus and Neptune) gather in Libra, 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.
Venus conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
Romance without limits: he falls for ideals as much as people, and his taste runs to the dreamy and the beautiful.
Mercury square Uranus almost exact at 0.5°
His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
Pluto trine North Node almost exact at 0.6°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
The Moon trine North Node close at 1.4°
What comforts him also moves him forward: his instincts point the right way.
The Sun conjunction Saturn close at 1.4°
Serious from early on: purpose and duty are one thing to him, and he treats his own life as work to be done well.
The Moon trine Pluto close at 2.0°
His feelings run deep and hold steady: he comes through hard times with more strength than he goes in with.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mars opposition Jupiter close at 3.0°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus sextile Pluto wide at 3.5°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
The Sun sextile Uranus wide at 3.6°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
Neptune opposition North Node wide at 3.9°
Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.
Venus opposition North Node wide at 4.1°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
Jupiter square North Node wide at 5.4°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
