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 Capricorn, 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 Capricorn

    The direction her life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.

    16°47′

  • 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.

    12°51′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius

    In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.

    3°48′

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 heart and her imagination (Mercury, Venus and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws her 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.

  • Venus sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.2°

    She loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she forms change both people.

  • Jupiter quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.4°

    When to expand and when to hold back takes constant rethinking.

  • Saturn quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.8°

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

  • Jupiter conjunction North Node close at 1.2°

    Generosity is part of her path: teaching, travel and big ideas move her forward.

  • Venus conjunction Neptune close at 1.3°

    Romance without limits: she falls for ideals as much as people, and her taste runs to the dreamy and the beautiful.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.6°

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

  • The Sun square Pluto wide at 3.6°

    Nothing about her is halfway: she insists on running her own life, and the struggle makes her formidable.

  • Mercury opposition Saturn wide at 4.9°

    She doubts her own ideas before anyone else can, and so she checks every one twice.

  • Mercury conjunction Neptune wide at 5.2°

    A poet’s mind: she hears what goes unsaid, and her best ideas come from somewhere hard to explain.

  • Uranus square North Node wide at 5.7°

    The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.

  • Saturn trine Uranus wide at 6.5°

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

  • Mercury conjunction Venus wide at 6.5°

    Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.

  • Jupiter square Uranus wide at 6.9°

    Restless hope: she wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.
