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 Sagittarius, 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 Sagittarius

    The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.

    7°32′

  • Chiron in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.

    10°15′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn

    In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.

    24°04′

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

PatternsStellium
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 his chart, his feelings, his independence and his intensity (the Moon, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Aspects by strength13 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 trine Mars almost exact at 0.2°

    His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

  • Saturn square Pluto almost exact at 0.5°

    Heavy demands and hard limits: he faces a great deal of pressure and comes out tougher for it.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.7°

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

  • Mercury quincunx North Node close at 1.7°

    His habits of thought need small, steady changes to fit the way forward.

  • Jupiter sextile Neptune close at 2.7°

    Faith and imagination together: he believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.

  • Jupiter conjunction Pluto wide at 3.4°

    Large ambitions and the will to see them through: he works on a grand scale.

  • Jupiter square Saturn wide at 3.9°

    Growth and caution keep checking each other: he moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.

  • Uranus square Neptune wide at 4.0°

    The urge for change and the longing for ideals clash, and he lives with both.

  • Venus sextile Pluto wide at 4.2°

    He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.

  • Venus trine Neptune wide at 4.8°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

  • Saturn trine Uranus wide at 5.1°

    Old and new sit well together: he can change things without throwing out what works.

  • Venus square Mars wide at 5.5°

    In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.

  • Uranus trine North Node wide at 5.9°

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