Other Astrological Points
Critical Timelines
There are other celestial bodies, mathematical points, and areas in a natal chart that deserve mention beyond just the traditional planets. These important Astrological places help to give flavor to various transit and natal chart readings. Some of these points, such as the Ascendant and Midheaven, are critical pieces of a natal chart. Others, like Pluto, are extremely important when reading transits to highlight life transitions.
Regardless of how these objects are categorized, a student of Astrology would do very well to study them and learn their significance. Just because something isn't called a planet does not mean it isn't influential!
