The chart, fact by fact
Planets
What’s this?Close
The ten bodies astrology reads: the Sun, the Moon and eight planets. The planet says which part of a person it speaks for, the sign says how that part behaves, and the house says where in life it shows.
Sun in Aquarius
The Free Thinker. Original, free and humane.
17°26′
Moon in Taurus
The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 9:39 a.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
1°11′
Mercury in Aquarius
The Inventor. The original thinker.
25°46′
Venus in Pisces
The Tender Heart. Love without limits.
11°38′

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 his life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
11°12′
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus
In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.
29°06′
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 his chart, his identity, his mind and his discipline (the Sun, Mercury and Saturn) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life drew his 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.
Venus opposition North Node almost exact at 0.4°
What felt comfortable in love and what helped him grow were different things, and he chose between them more than once.
Jupiter sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.5°
Ambition with depth: he knew how to build influence, and he used it to make big changes.
The Sun sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.6°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grew more focused, and he knew how to start over.
The Sun trine Jupiter close at 1.1°
His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.
The Moon square Saturn close at 2.0°
Feelings came second to duty: he held himself to a high standard, even in private.
Venus conjunction Uranus close at 2.1°
Love at first sight, and freedom after it: the different and the new won his heart.

Venus quincunx Neptune close at 2.3°
What he wanted from love and what love gave him kept needing adjustment, and he learned to see people as they were.
Uranus opposition North Node close at 2.5°
The way forward asked for steadiness, and the urge for change kept breaking in.
Mercury trine Mars wide at 4.0°
A quick, direct mind: he made decisions fast and said what he meant.
Uranus square Pluto wide at 4.3°
Upheaval and the urge to break free ran strong, and he pushed for change rather than waiting for it.
Saturn opposition Neptune wide at 6.2°
The dream and the hard work seldom agreed on terms: his discipline and his imagination asked different things of him.
Venus square Pluto wide at 6.4°
Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Pluto square North Node wide at 6.8°
Old attachments held him back from the way forward, and he grew by letting some things go.
The Sun opposition Neptune wide at 8.1°
The self he knew and the image others saw drifted apart at times, and he worked to keep hold of the real one.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 8.3°
His mind and his identity were close together: he spoke as he thought, and his ideas were part of who he was.
