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 Capricorn
The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.
23°01′
Chiron in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.
25°47′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
17°41′
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 Pisces, 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.
Pluto quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.5°
He keeps giving up a little control to keep growing.
The Moon square Pluto close at 2.0°
He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.
The Moon trine Uranus close at 2.0°
His feelings like freedom: he needs space in close ties and gives it back just as easily.
Mercury square Jupiter close at 2.2°
Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus trine Saturn close at 2.5°
Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.

Neptune square North Node close at 2.8°

Venus square Mars wide at 3.6°

The Sun trine Saturn wide at 3.8°

Mercury trine Uranus wide at 4.9°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.
Venus square Jupiter wide at 5.0°
He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
Mercury trine Saturn wide at 5.2°
A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.
The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 6.2°
Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.

The urge for change and the longing for ideals clash, and he lives with both.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 9.0°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
