Beyond the planets

Eight keys beyond the ten classical planets, which astrology reads as axes of the chart.

Ascendant18°25 Sagittarius

The sign rising on the eastern horizon at birth. It shapes how you appear to the world.

Descendant18°25 Gemini

The point opposite the Ascendant, where the zodiac was setting at your birth. It speaks of the other: what you look for and meet in your bonds.

Midheaven23°04 Libra

The highest point in the sky at birth. It points to your vocation and public self.

Imum Coeli23°04 Aries

The lowest point of the sky at your birth, opposite the Midheaven. It points to your root: the origin, the home and the intimacy you set out from.

Chiron6°28 Pisces

The wounded healer: a small icy body between Saturn and Uranus. It marks the wound that, once moved through, teaches.

North Node28°10 Leo

Not a body but a point of the Moon's orbit. It marks the direction of your growth.

South Node28°10 Aquarius

The exact point opposite the North Node. It holds the ground you have already walked: the familiar place worth leaving behind.

Lilith16°43 Leo

The Black Moon: a mathematical point tied to the untamed and what refuses to submit.
