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 Cancer
The direction his life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.
23°37′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
19°43′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
6°58′
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 his chart, his identity, his independence and his imagination (the Sun, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In his chart, his optimism, his discipline and his intensity (Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his 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.
Neptune quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.2°
He grows by testing his ideals against real life, again and again.
Venus trine Mars almost exact at 0.4°
Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.
Venus square Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.
The Moon sextile Mars almost exact at 0.9°
His feelings turn straight into action: when something matters, he does something about it.
Mercury trine North Node close at 1.0°
His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.
The Moon sextile Venus close at 1.3°
He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

Pluto square North Node close at 2.1°

Jupiter square North Node wide at 6.1°
