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°58′

  • Chiron in Aquarius

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

    23°02′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

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

    6°04′

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

PatternsStellium
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 drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Aspects by strength17 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 sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.6°

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

  • Mars sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.7°

    Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

  • The Moon trine Uranus close at 1.3°

    His feelings like freedom: he needs space in close ties and gives it back just as easily.

  • Venus conjunction Pluto close at 1.5°

    A deep, private heart: he draws people in and keeps some feelings locked away.

  • Venus sextile Neptune close at 2.1°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

  • Venus trine Saturn close at 2.4°

    Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • Saturn square North Node close at 2.7°

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

  • Venus square Jupiter wide at 3.4°

    He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.

  • Jupiter sextile North Node wide at 3.6°

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

  • Mercury sextile Saturn wide at 3.9°

    A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

  • Saturn trine Pluto wide at 3.9°

    Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.

  • Saturn sextile Neptune wide at 4.5°

    Practical dreams: he gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.

  • Jupiter square Pluto wide at 4.9°

    He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.

  • The Sun sextile Uranus wide at 6.5°

    Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.

  • Mercury conjunction Mars wide at 6.8°

    He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

  • The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 7.2°

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

  • The Sun conjunction North Node wide at 9.5°

    His identity and his direction in life line up: the more fully he becomes himself, the further he goes.
