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 Leo

    The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.

    4°10′

  • Moon in Cancer

    The Moon moved from Gemini into Cancer at 11:41 a.m. that day, local time: in Gemini for a birth before then, in Cancer for one after.

    0°12′

  • Mercury in Cancerretrograde

    The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.

    23°28′

  • Venus in Virgo

    The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.

    2°44′

  • Mars in Aries

    The Trailblazer. First through the door.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Capricorn, 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 Capricorn

    The direction her life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.

    7°32′

  • Chiron in Aries

    In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.

    20°54′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius

    In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.

    27°53′

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

PatternsT-square
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 her chart, her drive (Mars in Aries) and her independence (Uranus in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and her mind (Mercury in Cancer) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.

Aspects by strength16 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.

  • The Sun trine Neptune almost exact at 0.6°

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

  • The Moon conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.8°

    Self-contained: she keeps her feelings in order, and she gives comfort in practical ways rather than in words.

  • Mercury square Mars close at 1.4°

    Sharp words and a sharp mind: she argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to her.

  • The Sun sextile Pluto close at 1.9°

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

  • Venus square Neptune close at 2.0°

    She loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.5°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • Mars opposition Uranus close at 2.7°

    Restless and quick to rebel: she pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.

  • Jupiter sextile Neptune close at 2.8°

    Faith and imagination together: she believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.

  • Saturn square Pluto close at 2.9°

    Heavy demands and hard limits: she faces a great deal of pressure and comes out tougher for it.

  • The Sun quincunx North Node wide at 3.4°

    The way forward asks her to bend habits that feel like part of who she is.

  • Venus sextile Saturn wide at 3.4°

    Loyal in love: she chooses carefully, and what she builds with people lasts.

  • The Sun opposition Jupiter wide at 3.5°

    She reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

  • Mercury square Uranus wide at 4.1°

    Her mind runs ahead of the conversation: she says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.

  • Venus trine North Node wide at 4.8°

    Love and friendship move her forward: the people she cares for help her find her way.

  • Pluto square North Node wide at 5.3°

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

  • Jupiter trine Pluto wide at 5.4°

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