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 Pisces
The direction her life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
22°53′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
10°35′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
27°39′
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.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In her chart, her drive, her imagination and her intensity (Mars, Neptune and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew her attention first.
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.
The Moon sextile Mercury close at 1.2°
Feeling and thought spoke the same language: she could put a mood into words, and her words carried feeling.
Mars trine North Node close at 1.2°
Courage moved her forward, and each bold step took her further along her path.
The Sun sextile Jupiter close at 1.3°
Her confidence came easily and spread: she thought big, and other people wanted to come along.
Venus trine Saturn close at 1.5°
Loyal in love: she chose carefully, and what she built with people lasted.
Mercury sextile Uranus close at 1.6°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and she saw answers others missed.
The Moon conjunction Uranus close at 2.8°
Restless feelings: she felt most at home where things were new.

Uranus quincunx Pluto close at 2.9°
Freedom and control needed constant adjusting, and she changed in stages rather than all at once.
Venus square Mars wide at 3.1°
In love she wanted tenderness and a chase at once, and her relationships were rarely calm.
Venus square Jupiter wide at 5.1°
She loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.
Neptune trine North Node wide at 5.3°
Imagination helped her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
Uranus opposition Neptune wide at 5.6°
The urge for change and the longing for ideals clashed, and she lived with both.
Saturn square North Node wide at 5.8°
Duty and growth competed: what she owed others and where she needed to go called for hard choices.
Mars conjunction Neptune wide at 6.6°
Action guided by imagination: she moved on instinct and feeling, and she gave her all to a vision.
The Sun square Uranus wide at 8.4°
She needed room to be herself, and any rule that fit too tightly got broken.
