In a chart, planets that sit at certain distances from each other are said to “talk” to each other. That distance, measured as an angle around the circle, is called an . Here you can see how it works with just two planets.
- The circle is the sky all around the Earth, like the wheel of your chart. The Sun (the filled circle at the top) stays still.
- Drag the Moon (the hollow circle) around the circle, or select it and use the arrow keys.
- The big number shows how far apart they are, in degrees. A full circle is 360°.
- The little marks are the five special angles: 0°, 60°, 90°, 120° and 180°. Each one appears on both sides, because you can measure from the Sun either way round. When the Moon reaches one, a line appears and the text explains what it means.
In your own chart the same thing happens between all your planets: those are the lines inside your wheel.
