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 Scorpio
The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.
4°50′
Moon in Aries
The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 6:06 p.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
26°55′
Mercury in Scorpio
The Investigator. Hears what was left out.
28°39′
Venus in Scorpio
The Devotee. All or nothing.
1°58′
Mars in Virgo
The Craftsperson. The craftsman’s drive.

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 Taurus
The direction his life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
16°09′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
22°14′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
23°30′
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 and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Stellium

In his chart, his drive, his independence and his intensity (Mars, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, 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.
Saturn opposition Uranus almost exact at 0.9°
Tradition and rebellion fight in him: he wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.
The Sun square Jupiter close at 1.2°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Uranus sextile Neptune close at 1.4°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.4°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus square Jupiter close at 1.6°
He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
Saturn trine Neptune close at 2.4°
Practical dreams: he gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.

Chart signature
What’s this?Close
The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.

Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
