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 Aries
The Pioneer. First in, first to try.
22°45′
Moon in Taurus
The Hearth. Calm, sensual and steady.
13°17′
Mercury in Aries
Mercury moved from Aries into Taurus at 12:10 p.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
29°59′
Venus in Gemini
The Charmer. Love through conversation.
8°27′
Mars in Capricorn
The Achiever. The disciplined climb.

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 Sagittarius
The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
8°54′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
11°04′
Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.
14°16′
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.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his drive (Mars in Capricorn) and his independence (Uranus in Cancer) face each other across the wheel, and his identity (the Sun in Aries) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

In his chart, his drive (Mars in Capricorn) and his independence (Uranus in Cancer) face each other across the wheel, and his imagination (Neptune in Libra) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
Grand cross
Four planets in a square, two pairs pulling against each other: strain on every side, and great staying power.
In his chart, his identity, his drive, his independence and his imagination (the Sun in Aries, Mars in Capricorn, Uranus in Cancer and Neptune in Libra) make the cross, and he learns to hold all four at once.

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.
Mars opposition Uranus almost exact at 0.3°
Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.
Venus opposition North Node almost exact at 0.5°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
Mars square Neptune almost exact at 0.7°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
Mercury opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.8°
Facts and dreams blur together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.
Uranus square Neptune close at 1.0°
The urge for change and the longing for ideals clash, and he lives with both.
The Sun trine Jupiter close at 1.2°
His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
