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 Aries

    The Pioneer. First in, first to try.

    0°30′

  • Moon in Sagittarius

    The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 1:05 p.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.

    29°25′

  • Mercury in Pisces

    The Poet. Knowing without explaining.

    10°43′

  • Venus in Pisces

    The Tender Heart. Love without limits.

    23°44′

  • Mars in Pisces

    Mars moved from Pisces into Aries at 11:03 p.m. that day, local time: in Pisces for a birth before then, in Aries for one after.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Aries, 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 Aries

    The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.

    25°57′

  • Chiron in Sagittarius

    In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.

    9°06′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Pisces

    In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.

    27°08′

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

PatternsT-square, T-square
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.

T-square

Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.

In his chart, his feelings (the Moon in Sagittarius) and his independence (Uranus in Gemini) face each other across the wheel, and his identity (the Sun in Aries) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

T-square

Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.

In his chart, his feelings (the Moon in Sagittarius) and his independence (Uranus in Gemini) face each other across the wheel, and his drive (Mars in Pisces) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

Aspects by strength21 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.

  • The Sun quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.2°

    The wish to shine and the wish to be careful need steady adjusting: he moves forward a step, then checks it.

  • The Moon square Mars almost exact at 0.2°

    Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.3°

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

  • Jupiter quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.3°

    His hopes and his restlessness keep changing places, and he redraws his plans more than once.

  • Uranus sextile North Node almost exact at 0.7°

    Change helps him forward: he grows by trying the new.

  • The Sun conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.9°

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