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 her life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.

    28°42′

  • 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.

    16°38′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn

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

    12°20′

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

PatternsT-square, T-square
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 her chart, her feelings (the Moon in Aries) and her intensity (Pluto in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and her discipline (Saturn in Cancer) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.

T-square

Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.

In her chart, her drive (Mars in Aries) and her independence (Uranus in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and her heart (Venus in Capricorn) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.

Aspects by strength18 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.

  • Mars opposition Uranus almost exact at 0.5°

    Restless and quick to rebel: she pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.

  • The Moon square Saturn almost exact at 0.6°

    Feelings come second to duty: she holds herself to a high standard, even in private.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.9°

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

  • Venus square Uranus close at 1.4°

    Love comes in sudden starts and stops: she falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.

  • Mercury quincunx Mars close at 1.6°

    Thinking and doing keep getting out of step: she acts on half a thought, or thinks past the moment to act.

  • Jupiter sextile Neptune close at 1.6°

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

  • Saturn square Pluto wide at 3.7°

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

  • Saturn opposition North Node wide at 4.0°

    Duty and growth compete: what she owes others and where she needs to go call for hard choices.

    She takes in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gives them back as something new.
