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°38′
Moon in Aquarius
The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 1:13 a.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.
6°07′
Mercury in Scorpio
The Investigator. Hears what was left out.
2°21′
Venus in Virgo
The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.
5°27′
Mars in Libra
The Negotiator. A fighter for fairness.
22°49′

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 Libra
The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.
3°58′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
22°57′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
6°26′
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.
Venus conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.1°
A deep, private heart: he draws people in and keeps some feelings locked away.
The Moon square Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
His feelings and his imagination pull in different directions: he lives between what is real and what he longs for.
Venus sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.6°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.
The Moon trine North Node close at 2.1°
What comforts him also moves him forward: his instincts point the right way.
