Planets

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 Virgo
The direction her life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
17°44′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
5°21′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
13°18′
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 identity, her mind and her drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life draws 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 Sun conjunction Mercury almost exact at 0.1°
Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.
The Moon sextile North Node almost exact at 0.2°
What comforts her also moves her forward: her instincts point the right way.
The Sun sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Mercury sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.3°
She thinks in pictures and music: her words carry a mood, and her imagination gives her ideas colour.
Mercury trine Pluto almost exact at 0.6°
A probing mind: she gets to the bottom of things, and her words have power when she chooses to use them.
The Sun trine Pluto almost exact at 0.7°
A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.9°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun square Uranus close at 1.1°
She needs room to be herself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.
Mercury square Uranus close at 1.2°
Her mind runs ahead of the conversation: she says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.

She loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes her a long time.
Mercury quincunx North Node close at 2.0°

The Sun quincunx North Node close at 2.1°

Mars quincunx North Node close at 2.5°
She keeps adjusting how hard she pushes to fit where her life is going.
The Moon trine Uranus close at 3.0°

Change helps her forward: she grows by trying the new.
Mars trine Pluto wide at 3.9°

A serious path: growing asks for patience, and she gives it.

Restless and quick to rebel: she pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.
