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.
23°06′
Moon in Aries
The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 5:29 p.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
27°08′
Mercury in Gemini
The Quick Wit. The messenger at home.
11°27′

The Chaser. Love at first sight.

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 Pisces
The direction her life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
29°05′
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.
5°34′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
6°51′
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.
The Sun trine Pluto almost exact at 0.6°
A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.
Venus trine Mars almost exact at 0.9°
Charm and desire work together: she knows what she wants in love and how to win it.
Uranus opposition North Node close at 1.0°
The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.
Jupiter sextile Neptune close at 1.2°
Faith and imagination together: she believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.
Neptune trine North Node close at 1.6°
Imagination helps her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
Saturn quincunx Uranus close at 1.6°
When to keep the rules and when to break them takes constant deciding.

Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Jupiter opposition North Node close at 2.9°

The Sun trine Jupiter wide at 3.1°
Her confidence comes easily and spreads: she thinks big, and other people want to come along.
Mercury opposition Mars wide at 3.6°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: she argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to her.
Jupiter conjunction Pluto wide at 3.7°
Large ambitions and the will to see them through: she works on a grand scale.
Jupiter conjunction Uranus wide at 3.9°
An inventive optimism: she believes in the new, and she takes leaps others would not.
The Sun opposition Neptune wide at 4.4°
The self she knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and she works to keep hold of the real one.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 5.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun sextile North Node wide at 6.0°
The direction her life takes suits her: being herself and growing go hand in hand.
Pluto opposition North Node wide at 6.6°
Old attachments hold her back from the way forward, and she grows by letting some things go.
The Sun trine Uranus wide at 7.0°
Independence comes easily: she does things her own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
Uranus conjunction Pluto wide at 7.6°
