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 Aquarius, 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 Aquarius

    The direction her life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.

    10°29′

  • 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.

    10°31′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Libra

    In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.

    16°51′

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 identity, her mind and her heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Aspects by strength15 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.

  • The Sun quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.5°

    The wish to shine and the wish to be careful need steady adjusting: she moves forward a step, then checks it.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.9°

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

  • The Moon square Jupiter close at 1.2°

    Her feelings run large: she wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.

  • The Sun trine the Moon close at 1.5°

    Her purpose and her feelings are on the same side: the life she chooses and the comfort she needs go together.

  • Jupiter sextile North Node close at 2.1°

    Hope helps her grow: faith in what is possible keeps her moving forward.

  • Jupiter opposition Saturn wide at 3.2°

    Growth and caution keep checking each other: she moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.

  • Saturn opposition Neptune wide at 3.3°

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

  • Mercury conjunction Venus wide at 3.4°

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

  • Venus square Mars wide at 3.9°

    In love she wants tenderness and a chase at once, and her relationships are rarely calm.

  • Saturn trine Pluto wide at 4.2°

    Endurance: she can work through hard times, and what she builds survives pressure.

  • Uranus trine North Node wide at 4.8°

    Change helps her forward: she grows by trying the new.

  • The Sun square North Node wide at 4.9°

    Being herself and growing ask for different things, and her biggest steps forward come when she stretches past her habits.

  • Saturn trine North Node wide at 5.4°

    Discipline helps her grow: patience and hard work keep her on course.

  • Mars square Neptune wide at 5.8°

    Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.

  • Jupiter conjunction Neptune wide at 6.5°

    A dreamer’s faith: she believes in something larger, and her compassion and her hopes go together.
