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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Cancer, 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 Cancer

    The direction her life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.

    18°38′

  • Chiron in Taurus

    In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.

    19°51′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius

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

    20°57′

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

PatternsStellium, T-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.

Stellium

Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.

In her chart, her drive, her discipline and her intensity (Mars, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws her attention first.

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 feelings (the Moon in Gemini) and her imagination (Neptune in Sagittarius) face each other across the wheel, and her mind (Mercury in Pisces) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.

Aspects by strength14 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 opposition Mars almost exact at 0.4°

    She fights hard for what she wants, and her temper is part of her courage.

  • The Moon trine Pluto almost exact at 0.4°

    Her feelings run deep and hold steady: she comes through hard times with more strength than she goes in with.

  • The Moon opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.7°

    Her feelings and her imagination pull in different directions: she lives between what is real and what she longs for.

  • Saturn square North Node close at 1.0°

    Duty and growth compete: what she owes others and where she needs to go call for hard choices.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.1°

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

  • The Sun quincunx Jupiter close at 1.6°

    She keeps fitting her ambitions to her purpose, and some big plans have to wait.

  • Mercury square Neptune close at 1.6°

    Facts and dreams blur together in her mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.

  • Venus trine Pluto close at 2.3°

    She loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she forms change both people.

  • The Moon square Mercury close at 2.3°

    Her head and her feelings argue: she knows what she thinks before she knows what she feels, or the other way round.

  • Venus sextile Neptune wide at 3.4°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: she sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

  • Venus trine Saturn wide at 4.1°

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

  • The Sun trine Uranus wide at 5.7°

    Independence comes easily: she does things her own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.

  • Mercury trine Uranus wide at 5.7°

    A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and she sees answers others miss.

  • Saturn conjunction Pluto wide at 6.4°

    Iron will and great patience: she builds slowly and for keeps.

The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.

Water · feeling and intuition2

The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.

No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one she has to find.
