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 Cancer, 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 Cancer

    The direction her life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.

    19°46′

  • Chiron in Pisces

    In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.

    13°12′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio

    In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.

    13°54′

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 her chart, her mind, her independence and her intensity (Mercury, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Aspects by strength12 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.

  • Jupiter sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.1°

    Hope and caution in balance: she dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.

  • Jupiter square North Node almost exact at 0.6°

    Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.

  • Saturn quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.7°

    Responsibility and growth need steady balancing, and she learns which duties to keep.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.7°

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

  • The Sun conjunction Venus close at 2.0°

    Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to her core.

  • Mars trine Saturn close at 2.6°

    Her drive and her discipline work together easily: she can push hard and keep going.

  • Mars opposition Jupiter close at 2.7°

    She takes on more than any one person can, and her boldness runs ahead of her plans.

  • Mars square North Node wide at 3.3°

    Old fights and the way forward disagree, and she grows by choosing which battles matter.

  • Saturn square Neptune wide at 6.0°

    The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: her discipline and her imagination ask different things of her.

  • Uranus conjunction Pluto wide at 6.2°

    Born into a time of upheaval: she wants radical change, and wants it at once.

  • The Sun conjunction Uranus wide at 6.4°

    Born original: her identity and her need for freedom are the same thing, and she surprises people, herself included.

  • Neptune trine North Node wide at 6.7°

    Imagination helps her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
