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.
11°49′
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.
9°54′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
1°56′
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.
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 mind (Mercury in Aquarius) and his imagination (Neptune in Leo) face each other across the wheel, and his drive (Mars in Scorpio) took the strain: the part of him that worked hardest.
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.
Mars square Neptune almost exact at 0.1°
Drive and dreams mixed uneasily: the goal was clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
Saturn quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.1°
When to keep the rules and when to break them took constant deciding.
Saturn square Pluto close at 1.0°
Heavy demands and hard limits: he faced a great deal of pressure and came out tougher for it.
Uranus trine Pluto close at 1.1°
He could help change things at the root, and upheaval suited him.
Mercury square Mars close at 1.5°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argued well, sometimes too well, and a debate was a kind of sport to him.
Mercury opposition Neptune close at 1.5°
Facts and dreams blurred together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details mattered.
