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 Virgo
The direction his life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
9°02′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
5°25′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
7°07′
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.
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 independence (Uranus in Capricorn) and his imagination (Neptune in Cancer) face each other across the wheel, and his identity (the Sun in Aries) 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.
Jupiter trine Uranus almost exact at 0.1°
Sudden openings: he spotted new chances early and jumped at them.
The Sun square Neptune almost exact at 0.3°
The self he knew and the image others saw drifted apart at times, and he worked to keep hold of the real one.
Mercury sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.7°
A probing mind: he got to the bottom of things, and his words had power when he chose to use them.
The Sun square Uranus close at 1.0°
He needed room to be himself, and any rule that fit too tightly got broken.
Uranus opposition Neptune close at 1.2°
The urge for change and the longing for ideals clashed, and he lived with both.
Jupiter sextile Neptune close at 1.4°
Faith and imagination together: he believed in people and ideals, and that belief was catching.
