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 Libra, 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 Libra

    The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.

    0°35′

  • Chiron in Scorpio

    In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.

    10°41′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Libra

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

    27°10′

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 his chart, his identity, his mind, his discipline and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Saturn and Neptune) gather in Pisces, and that part of life drew his 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.

  • Mercury conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.2°

    Serious thoughts: he said less than he knew, and what he said held up.

  • Neptune quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.6°

    He grew by testing his ideals against real life, again and again.

  • Venus sextile Pluto close at 1.3°

    He loved with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he formed changed both people.

  • The Sun opposition North Node close at 1.3°

    Being himself and growing asked for different things, and his biggest steps forward came when he stretched past his habits.

  • The Sun opposition the Moon close at 1.5°

    The self he showed the world and the self he came home to wanted different things, and he made room for both.

  • The Moon conjunction North Node close at 2.8°

    His instincts led the way: following his feelings was how he found his direction.

  • Mercury square Mars wide at 3.9°

    Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argued well, sometimes too well, and a debate was a kind of sport to him.

  • Mars sextile Uranus wide at 4.0°

    Quick and inventive in action: he moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.

  • Venus conjunction Neptune wide at 4.1°

    Romance without limits: he fell for ideals as much as people, and his taste ran to the dreamy and the beautiful.

  • Mars square Saturn wide at 4.1°

    Drive with the brakes on: he wanted to move, something held him back, and the friction made him tough.

  • Mercury trine Jupiter wide at 6.2°

    A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learned easily, told a good story and saw the big picture.

  • Jupiter square Uranus wide at 6.3°

    Restless hope: he wanted more freedom than any situation gave, and big changes came suddenly.

  • Jupiter trine Saturn wide at 6.4°

    Hope and caution in balance: he dreamed big and planned carefully, and both helped.
