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 Aries
The Pioneer. First in, first to try.
6°08′
Moon in Aries
The Quick Flame. Quick to flare, quick to forgive.

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 Aquarius
The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
22°53′
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°34′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
22°44′
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 identity, his feelings and his mind (the Sun, the Moon and Mercury) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws his attention first.
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 trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.3°
His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
Venus quincunx Pluto almost exact at 0.7°
Affection and the need for control keep getting in each other’s way, and trust takes him time.
Mercury sextile North Node close at 1.0°
His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.
Mars square Uranus close at 2.8°
Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.
The Sun square Mars close at 2.9°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
Saturn square North Node wide at 3.1°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Sun trine Neptune wide at 3.2°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Jupiter conjunction Neptune wide at 3.5°
A dreamer’s faith: he believes in something larger, and his compassion and his hopes go together.
Mercury sextile Venus wide at 3.6°
A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.
Venus conjunction North Node wide at 4.6°
Following his heart is following his path: the people and pleasures he loves lead him forward.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.8°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus square Neptune wide at 5.5°
He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
The Sun opposition Uranus wide at 5.6°
He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.
The Sun opposition Pluto wide at 8.0°
Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

What’s this?Close
