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 Cancer
The Protector. Home, memory and care.
26°36′
Moon in Aquarius
The Moon moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 4:01 p.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.
27°35′
Mercury in Cancer
The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.
15°25′
Venus in Virgo
The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.
7°50′
Mars in Gemini
The Multitasker. Quick with the comeback.

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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
8°56′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
10°19′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
29°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.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his mind, his optimism and his imagination (Mercury in Cancer, Jupiter in Pisces and Neptune in Scorpio) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.
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 North Node exact at 0.0°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
Venus square Mars almost exact at 0.4°
In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.
Saturn quincunx Pluto almost exact at 0.5°
He keeps adjusting between control and acceptance, and learns where each belongs.
Venus conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.6°
A deep, private heart: he draws people in and keeps some feelings locked away.
Mars square Pluto close at 1.0°
A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.
Venus quincunx Saturn close at 1.1°
He keeps weighing pleasure against duty, and joy comes once the work is done.

The Moon opposition Uranus close at 1.2°

Mars trine Saturn close at 1.5°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
Saturn square Neptune close at 1.8°

Neptune square North Node close at 1.8°
Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus sextile Neptune close at 2.9°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

Jupiter opposition Pluto wide at 3.8°
He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.
Venus opposition Jupiter wide at 4.4°
He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.

Mars square Jupiter wide at 4.8°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
