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 Sagittarius

    The Explorer. Honest, free and far-seeing.

    0°45′

  • Moon in Aquarius

    The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 12:53 a.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.

    6°05′

  • Mercury in Sagittarius

    The Philosopher. The big picture.

    22°38′

  • Venus in Sagittarius

    The Adventurer. Love as an adventure.

    23°17′

  • Mars in Pisces

    The Gentle Warrior. Strength that flows round.

    9°35′

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Aquarius, 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 Aquarius

    The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.

    7°29′

  • 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.

    9°42′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Libra

    In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.

    19°38′

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

PatternsStellium
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 identity, his mind, his heart, his optimism and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first.

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.

  • Saturn opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.5°

    The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.

  • Mercury conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.6°

    Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

  • The Sun sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.8°

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

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.2°

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

  • The Moon conjunction North Node close at 1.4°

    His instincts lead the way: following his feelings is how he finds his direction.

  • Saturn trine Pluto close at 1.6°

    Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.

  • The Sun conjunction Neptune close at 2.0°

    He takes in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gives them back as something new.

  • The Sun opposition Saturn close at 2.5°

    Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.

  • Jupiter sextile Uranus close at 3.0°

    Sudden openings: he spots new chances early and jumps at them.

  • Mars square Jupiter wide at 4.2°

    He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

  • Saturn trine North Node wide at 4.3°

    Discipline helps him grow: patience and hard work keep him on course.

  • Neptune sextile North Node wide at 4.8°

    Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

  • Pluto trine North Node wide at 5.9°

    Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.

  • Mars square Saturn wide at 6.4°

    Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.

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.

Fire · instinct and enthusiasm5
Earth · the practical and the solid0
Air · ideas and people4
Water · feeling and intuition1

Modes

Cardinal · starting things2
Fixed · holding steady1

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 he has to find.
