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 Sagittarius
The Explorer. Honest, free and far-seeing.
6°11′
Moon in Taurus
The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 2:32 a.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
5°33′
Mercury in Sagittarius
The Philosopher. The big picture.
11°13′
Venus in Sagittarius
The Adventurer. Love as an adventure.
12°18′
Mars in Capricorn
The Achiever. The disciplined climb.
21°05′

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 Cancer
The direction his life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.
4°30′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
24°37′
Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.
17°50′
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, his heart, his independence and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws 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.
Uranus quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.5°
Sudden changes keep shifting the way forward, and he adapts each time.
Mercury conjunction Venus close at 1.1°
Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
The Sun conjunction Uranus close at 1.2°
Born original: his identity and his need for freedom are the same thing, and he surprises people, himself included.
Saturn conjunction Pluto close at 1.6°
Iron will and great patience: he builds slowly and for keeps.
The Sun quincunx North Node close at 1.7°
The way forward asks him to bend habits that feel like part of who he is.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.4°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

Love at first sight, and freedom after it: the different and the new win his heart.
