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 Capricorn
The Architect. Ambitious, patient and dry.
3°48′
Moon in Pisces
The Moon moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 10:36 a.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.
0°46′
Mercury in Capricorn

The Kindred Spirit. Friend first, lover too.

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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
1°19′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
27°23′
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus
In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.
16°43′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.4°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Moon trine North Node almost exact at 0.6°
What comforts him also moves him forward: his instincts point the right way.
Mercury trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.7°
A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.
Saturn trine Neptune close at 1.8°
Practical dreams: he gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.
Saturn sextile Pluto close at 2.1°
Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.
Venus opposition Saturn close at 2.4°
Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

The Sun sextile North Node close at 2.5°
The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.
Venus square Jupiter wide at 3.4°
He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
Venus sextile Neptune wide at 4.1°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.
Venus trine Pluto wide at 4.5°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
Saturn square Uranus wide at 5.6°
Tradition and rebellion fight in him: he wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.
Jupiter square Saturn wide at 5.7°
Growth and caution keep checking each other: he moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.
The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 8.7°
Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
