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 Leo
The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.
15°07′
Moon in Aquarius
The Moon moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 11:42 p.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.
22°50′
Mercury in Cancer
The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.
26°07′
Venus in Leo
The Romantic. Grand, generous love.
27°48′
Mars in Gemini
The Multitasker. Quick with the comeback.

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 Virgo
The direction his life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
15°43′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
0°34′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
10°15′
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 heart and his independence (the Sun, Venus and Uranus) gather in Leo, 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.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mars square Pluto close at 1.6°
A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.
The Moon opposition Uranus close at 1.8°
His moods change without warning, and he wants closeness and room to breathe at the same time.
Mercury quincunx Jupiter close at 2.1°
The facts and the bigger picture need constant reconciling, and he keeps checking one against the other.
The Sun quincunx Saturn close at 2.1°
The wish to shine and the wish to be careful need steady adjusting: he moves forward a step, then checks it.
Saturn trine North Node close at 2.7°
Discipline helps him grow: patience and hard work keep him on course.

Sudden openings: he spots new chances early and jumps at them.
Venus trine Jupiter wide at 3.8°
Affection comes to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism help each other.
Venus square Mars wide at 5.8°
In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.
The Sun conjunction Uranus wide at 5.9°
Born original: his identity and his need for freedom are the same thing, and he surprises people, himself included.
Venus conjunction Uranus wide at 6.8°
Love at first sight, and freedom after it: the different and the new win his heart.
Venus conjunction Pluto wide at 7.4°
A deep, private heart: he draws people in and keeps some feelings locked away.
