This chart illustrates two additional chords that the planets can make when disregarding Venus (which constitutes a restriction because it can only take E, scarcely approaching even E flat). With Venus omitted, the planets can produce what we would call a G major (the left column) chord, or a G minor (the right column). G major consists of G, B, and D; G minor has a B flat instead of the B. In G major, Earth takes the note G, Jupiter can take B and D, Saturn and Mars can both take G and B, and Mercury can take all three. In the minor chord Jupiter takes D, Earth takes G, Saturn and Mars take both G and B, and Mercury can take all three again.
