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 Taurus
The Gardener. Steady, sensual and sure.
14°31′
Moon in Gemini
The Moon moved from Gemini into Cancer at 5:43 p.m. that day, local time: in Gemini for a birth before then, in Cancer for one after.
27°07′

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 Taurus
The direction his life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
29°27′
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.
18°05′
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus
In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.
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.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his drive and his imagination (Mars and Neptune, together in Aquarius) and his optimism (Jupiter in Leo) face each other across the wheel, and his identity (the Sun in Taurus) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
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 conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.6°
Self-contained: he keeps his feelings in order, and he gives comfort in practical ways rather than in words.
The Sun square Neptune close at 1.4°
The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.
Mars opposition Jupiter close at 1.6°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Mercury quincunx Pluto close at 2.0°
What he knows and what he says need careful managing, and secrets sit uneasily with him.
Venus trine Pluto close at 2.9°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
Uranus square North Node close at 2.9°
The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.

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.
Venus sextile Neptune wide at 3.5°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.
Jupiter opposition Neptune wide at 3.6°
His hopes run ahead of what is real, and he learns to check a beautiful idea against the facts.
Mercury square Neptune wide at 4.3°
Facts and dreams blur together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.
The Sun square Jupiter wide at 5.0°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Mars conjunction Neptune wide at 5.2°
Action guided by imagination: he moves on instinct and feeling, and he gives his all to a vision.
Saturn trine Uranus wide at 5.9°
Old and new sit well together: he can change things without throwing out what works.
The Sun square Mars wide at 6.6°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
Saturn opposition Pluto wide at 7.0°
