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 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.

    17°28′

  • Chiron in Aries

    In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.

    21°00′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio

    In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.

    16°26′

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.

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

Aspects by strength15 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.
