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 Libra

    The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.

    16°11′

  • Moon in Sagittarius

    The Moon moved from Scorpio into Sagittarius at 10:21 a.m. that day, local time: in Scorpio for a birth before then, in Sagittarius for one after.

    1°00′

  • Mercury in Virgo

    The Analyst. The editor’s eye.

    29°02′

  • Venus in Scorpio

    The Devotee. All or nothing.

    15°35′

  • Mars in Virgo

    The Craftsperson. The craftsman’s drive.

    26°08′

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Gemini, 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 Gemini

    The direction his life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.

    10°02′

  • Chiron in Capricorn

    In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.

    3°57′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aries

    In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.

    16°13′

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

Aspects by strength15 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.

  • Mercury square Saturn almost exact at 0.1°

    He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

  • The Sun sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.8°

    A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.

  • Mars quincunx Uranus close at 1.0°

    Effort and restlessness keep catching each other off guard, and his plans change at short notice.

  • Neptune trine North Node close at 1.8°

    Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

  • Jupiter trine Pluto close at 1.9°

    Ambition with depth: he knows how to build influence, and he uses it to make big changes.

  • Venus square Jupiter close at 2.1°

    He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • The Sun sextile Jupiter close at 2.7°

    His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.

  • Mercury conjunction Mars close at 2.9°

    He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

  • Mars square Saturn close at 3.0°

    Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.

  • Jupiter sextile North Node wide at 3.5°

    Hope helps him grow: faith in what is possible keeps him moving forward.

  • Saturn trine Uranus wide at 3.9°

    Old and new sit well together: he can change things without throwing out what works.

  • Jupiter opposition Neptune wide at 5.3°

    His hopes run ahead of what is real, and he learns to check a beautiful idea against the facts.

  • Pluto opposition North Node wide at 5.4°

    Old attachments hold him back from the way forward, and he grows by letting some things go.

  • The Sun trine North Node wide at 6.2°

    The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.

  • The Sun trine Neptune wide at 8.0°

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