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 Scorpio
The direction her life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
8°47′
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.
10°30′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
29°04′
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 her chart, her identity, her mind and her drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life drew her 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.
Mercury trine Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
She thought in pictures and music: her words carried a mood, and her imagination gave her ideas colour.
Jupiter quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
Her ideals and her beliefs needed constant matching up, and she kept asking what she really believed.
The Sun square North Node close at 2.2°
Being herself and growing asked for different things, and her biggest steps forward came when she stretched past her habits.
The Sun square the Moon close at 2.2°
The self she showed the world and the self she came home to wanted different things, and she made room for both.
Uranus opposition Pluto wide at 3.2°
Upheaval and the urge to break free ran strong, and she pushed for change rather than waiting for it.
Venus trine Neptune wide at 3.4°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: she saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.
