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.

    3°41′

  • Chiron in Aquarius

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

    22°44′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

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

    7°53′

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.

  • Jupiter sextile North Node almost exact at 0.2°

    Hope helps him grow: faith in what is possible keeps him moving forward.

  • Mercury square Uranus almost exact at 0.3°

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

  • Mars sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.8°

    His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.8°

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

  • Saturn square North Node close at 1.4°

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

  • The Sun conjunction Mars close at 2.0°

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