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 Aries
The Pioneer. First in, first to try.
23°07′
Moon in Gemini
The Moon moved from Gemini into Cancer at 12:59 p.m. that day, local time: in Gemini for a birth before then, in Cancer for one after.

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.
5°45′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
4°34′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
9°36′
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.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his identity, his discipline and his imagination (the Sun in Aries, Saturn in Leo and Neptune in Sagittarius) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.

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 Sun trine Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.
The Moon conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.7°
Big feelings and a big heart: his good moods lift everyone near, and he gives comfort freely.
Mercury trine Neptune close at 2.0°
He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.
Venus quincunx Pluto close at 2.1°
Affection and the need for control keep getting in each other’s way, and trust takes him time.
Venus opposition Uranus close at 2.3°
Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.
The Sun conjunction Mercury close at 3.0°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
