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 Scorpio
The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.
10°45′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 6:38 p.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.
26°31′

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.
17°52′
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.
10°26′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
23°08′
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 heart, his optimism and his discipline (Venus, Jupiter and Saturn) gather in Libra, and that part of life drew his attention first.
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 independence and his intensity (the Sun in Scorpio, Uranus in Pisces and Pluto in Cancer) make the triangle, so these came to him naturally.

Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his mind, his independence and his intensity (Mercury in Scorpio, Uranus in Pisces and Pluto in Cancer) make the triangle, so these came 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.
Venus conjunction North Node almost exact at 0.5°
Following his heart was following his path: the people and pleasures he loved led him forward.
The Sun trine Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grew more focused, and he knew how to start over.
Venus sextile Neptune close at 1.4°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: he saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.
The Moon square Mars close at 1.7°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacted first, and his courage came from the same place as his flashes of anger.
Jupiter square Pluto close at 1.8°
He wanted more power than came easily, and the struggle for it shaped his life.
Neptune sextile North Node close at 1.9°
Imagination helped him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
