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 Sagittarius
The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
2°03′
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.
23°30′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
6°45′
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 mind and his optimism (the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws his attention first.
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 identity (the Sun in Aries) and his intensity (Pluto in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and his discipline (Saturn in Cancer) takes the strain: the part of him that works 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.
The Moon square Venus almost exact at 0.4°
What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.
Mercury conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.7°
He loves ideas, the bigger the better, and he can talk anyone into hoping.
Saturn quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.8°
Duty and dreams keep trading places as the priority.
Mercury trine North Node close at 1.9°
His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.
Jupiter trine North Node close at 2.5°
Hope helps him grow: faith in what is possible keeps him moving forward.
Jupiter opposition Pluto wide at 3.1°
He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.

Mercury opposition Pluto wide at 3.8°
His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.
The Sun square Saturn wide at 3.8°
Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun trine Neptune wide at 4.6°

Venus square Mars wide at 4.7°
In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.
Saturn square Pluto wide at 4.8°
Heavy demands and hard limits: he faces a great deal of pressure and comes out tougher for it.
Mars trine Uranus wide at 5.0°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
Mars square North Node wide at 6.0°
Old fights and the way forward disagree, and he grows by choosing which battles matter.
The Sun opposition Pluto wide at 8.6°
Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.
