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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Scorpio, Chiron and Lilith
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 her life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.

    5°33′

  • Chiron in Virgo

    In Virgo, Chiron is the sense that no effort is ever quite enough, and a gift for patient, practical help.

    20°03′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

    In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.

    14°11′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

PatternsYod
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.

Yod

Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.

In her chart, her discipline (Saturn in Pisces) and her imagination (Neptune in Capricorn) both point at her drive (Mars in Leo), the part of her that keeps needing adjustment and gives her life its focus.

Aspects by strength16 between the planets, the closest first
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 sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.9°

    She can help change things at the root, and upheaval suits her.

  • The Sun trine the Moon close at 1.2°

    Her purpose and her feelings are on the same side: the life she chooses and the comfort she needs go together.

  • Mars quincunx Saturn close at 1.4°

    When to push and when to wait takes constant judging, and she learns timing the hard way.

  • Venus trine Mars close at 1.5°

    Charm and desire work together: she knows what she wants in love and how to win it.

  • The Moon opposition Saturn close at 1.6°

    Feelings come second to duty: she holds herself to a high standard, even in private.

  • Mars quincunx Neptune close at 1.9°

    Her drive and her imagination speak different languages: she goes after something before she can say what it is.

  • Mercury opposition Jupiter close at 2.4°

    Big ideas and loose details: she thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from her.

  • The Sun sextile Saturn close at 2.8°

    Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.

  • Saturn sextile Neptune wide at 3.3°

    Practical dreams: she gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.

  • Venus square Neptune wide at 3.4°

    She loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.0°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • The Sun square Mars wide at 4.2°

    She fights hard for what she wants, and her temper is part of her courage.

  • Uranus conjunction Neptune wide at 5.0°

    Visionary: the new and the ideal meet in her imagination.

  • Uranus square North Node wide at 5.1°

    The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.

  • Mars square Pluto wide at 5.9°

    A fierce will: she meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out her full strength.

  • The Sun trine Neptune wide at 6.1°

    Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
