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 Capricorn
The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.
5°46′
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.
25°34′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
19°21′
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.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his feelings, his mind and his optimism (the Moon in Pisces, Mercury in Sagittarius and Jupiter in Cancer) make the triangle, so these came to him naturally.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his feelings, his mind and his independence (the Moon in Pisces, Mercury in Sagittarius and Uranus in Cancer) make the triangle, so these came to him naturally.
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 drive (Mars in Pisces) and his intensity (Pluto in Leo) face each other across the wheel, and his mind (Mercury in Sagittarius) 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.
Uranus square Neptune almost exact at 0.1°
The urge for change and the longing for ideals clashed, and he lived with both.
Mercury square Mars almost exact at 0.4°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argued well, sometimes too well, and a debate was a kind of sport to him.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.6°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mars quincunx Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°
Drive and hope kept going in slightly different directions, and he aimed again and again.
Venus conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
Serious about love: he gave affection slowly, and once given, it stayed given.
The Moon trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.9°
Good-hearted and generous: he felt looked after by life, and he passed that on.

The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No earth at all, so the practical, settled side was the one he had to find.
