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 Gemini
The Messenger. Curious and many-sided.
17°19′
Moon in Capricorn
The Steady Hand. Steady feeling, kept in check.
12°04′
Mercury in Gemini
The Quick Wit. The messenger at home.
3°54′
Venus in Gemini
Venus moved from Gemini into Cancer at 10:15 p.m. that day, local time: in Gemini for a birth before then, in Cancer for one after.
29°29′
Mars in Cancer
The Defender. Fierce for its own.

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 her life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
5°35′
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°08′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
19°21′
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.
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 identity (the Sun in Gemini) and her imagination (Neptune in Leo) both point at her optimism (Jupiter in Capricorn), the part of her that kept needing adjustment and gave her life its focus.
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.
The Moon opposition Pluto almost exact at 0.3°
She loved hard and held on hard, and letting go took her a long time.
Jupiter quincunx Neptune close at 1.0°
Her ideals and her beliefs needed constant matching up, and she kept asking what she really believed.
Mercury sextile North Node close at 1.7°
Her way with words helped her find her direction, and the right ideas came at the right time.
Mars opposition Jupiter close at 2.4°
She took on more than any one person could, and her boldness ran ahead of her plans.
The Sun sextile Neptune close at 2.9°
Imagination and identity worked together: she could become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Saturn square North Node close at 2.9°
Duty and growth competed: what she owed others and where she needed to go called for hard choices.

Quick and inventive in action: she moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.
The Sun square Uranus wide at 8.0°
She needed room to be herself, and any rule that fit too tightly got broken.
