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 Libra
The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.
12°01′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
27°37′
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus
In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.
20°45′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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.
The Sun square Pluto almost exact at 0.4°
Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.
Uranus sextile North Node almost exact at 0.7°
Change helps him forward: he grows by trying the new.
Saturn sextile Neptune close at 1.1°
Practical dreams: he gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.
Mars trine Jupiter close at 1.9°
Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.
Venus square North Node close at 2.0°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.2°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

The Sun opposition Jupiter wide at 4.7°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Jupiter square Pluto wide at 5.1°
He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.
Mercury square Uranus wide at 5.8°
His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
Saturn square North Node wide at 6.0°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
The Sun sextile Mars wide at 6.6°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
