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 Cancer
The Protector. Home, memory and care.
25°55′
Moon in Capricorn
The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 2:45 p.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.
28°17′
Mercury in Leo
The Storyteller. A voice that carries.
9°08′
Venus in Virgo
The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.
7°23′

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 his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
3°15′
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°21′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
24°52′
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.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his identity and his drive (the Sun in Cancer and Mars in Leo) and his feelings (the Moon in Capricorn) face each other across the wheel, and his optimism (Jupiter in Libra) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
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 sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.7°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
The Sun square Jupiter close at 1.1°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
The Moon square Jupiter close at 1.2°
His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.
Uranus quincunx North Node close at 2.0°
Sudden changes keep shifting the way forward, and he adapts each time.
The Moon opposition Mars close at 2.2°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.
Mars trine Neptune close at 2.2°
He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

The Sun trine Neptune close at 2.3°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
The Sun opposition the Moon close at 2.4°
The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.1°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mars square Jupiter wide at 3.4°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Mercury sextile Uranus wide at 3.9°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.
Venus opposition North Node wide at 4.1°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
Saturn trine Pluto wide at 4.5°
Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.
The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 4.5°
Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
Neptune square North Node wide at 5.0°
Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.
The Sun sextile Saturn wide at 5.2°
Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.
Jupiter trine North Node wide at 6.2°
Hope helps him grow: faith in what is possible keeps him moving forward.
Saturn opposition Neptune wide at 7.5°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.
