The chart, fact by fact
Planets

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 Scorpio
The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.
12°32′
Moon in Capricorn
The Steady Hand. Steady feeling, kept in check.
18°42′
Mercury in Sagittarius
The Philosopher. The big picture.
5°46′

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°18′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
22°41′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
9°20′
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.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In his chart, his identity, his drive and his imagination (the Sun, Mars and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.
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.
Saturn square North Node almost exact at 0.1°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
Mercury square Pluto almost exact at 0.1°
His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.
Jupiter square Pluto almost exact at 0.3°
He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.
Mercury conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.5°
He loves ideas, the bigger the better, and he can talk anyone into hoping.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun conjunction Mars close at 2.1°
Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
