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 Leo

    The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.

    15°54′

  • Moon in Aquarius

    The Moon moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 11:05 p.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.

    23°28′

  • Mercury in Leoretrograde

    The Storyteller. A voice that carries.

    25°11′

  • Venus in Cancer

    The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.

    24°15′

  • Mars in Cancer

    The Defender. Fierce for its own.

    22°08′

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Virgo, 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 Virgo

    The direction his life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.

    1°27′

  • 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.

    13°05′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Libra

    In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.

    26°20′

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

Aspects by strength16 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.

  • Neptune quincunx North Node close at 1.1°

    He grows by testing his ideals against real life, again and again.

  • The Moon opposition Mercury close at 1.7°

    His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.

  • Saturn quincunx Pluto close at 1.7°

    He keeps adjusting between control and acceptance, and learns where each belongs.

  • Mercury quincunx Jupiter close at 2.1°

    The facts and the bigger picture need constant reconciling, and he keeps checking one against the other.

  • Venus conjunction Mars close at 2.1°

    Magnetic: affection and desire come together in him, and people notice.

  • Saturn trine North Node close at 2.1°

    Discipline helps him grow: patience and hard work keep him on course.

  • Jupiter sextile Neptune close at 3.0°

    Faith and imagination together: he believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.

  • Venus trine Jupiter wide at 3.1°

    Affection comes to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism help each other.

  • Saturn square Neptune wide at 3.2°

    The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.

  • Pluto square North Node wide at 3.9°

    Old attachments hold him back from the way forward, and he grows by letting some things go.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 5.0°

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

  • Mars trine Jupiter wide at 5.2°

    Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.

  • The Sun opposition Uranus wide at 5.3°

    He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

  • Venus opposition Neptune wide at 6.1°

    He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

  • Mercury conjunction North Node wide at 6.3°

    Ideas and talk set his course: he finds his direction by learning and talking things through.

  • Saturn square Uranus wide at 7.0°

    Tradition and rebellion fight in him: he wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.
