The chart, fact by fact
Planets

Sun in Virgo
The Fixer. Precise, useful and kind.

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 Capricorn
The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.
6°20′
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.
20°30′
Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.
1°01′
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 independence and his intensity (Venus, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his heart (Venus in Libra) and his imagination (Neptune in Sagittarius) both point at his drive (Mars in Taurus), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his optimism (Jupiter in Aquarius) and his imagination (Neptune in Sagittarius) both point at his discipline (Saturn in Cancer), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
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.
Mars quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.1°
His drive and his imagination speak different languages: he goes after something before he can say what it is.
Venus square North Node almost exact at 0.4°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
Mars square Jupiter almost exact at 0.5°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Jupiter sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
Faith and imagination together: he believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.
Saturn square Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
Heavy demands and hard limits: he faces a great deal of pressure and comes out tougher for it.
The Sun sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.
