The chart, fact by fact
Planets

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 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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
8°54′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
8°39′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
3°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 mind, his independence and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, 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 identity (the Sun in Virgo) and his drive (Mars in Cancer) both point at his discipline (Saturn in Aquarius), 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.
Jupiter quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.8°
Some hopes have to be let go to fit the way forward, and he chooses which ones.
The Moon sextile Venus almost exact at 0.9°
He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.
The Sun sextile Mars almost exact at 0.9°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
The Sun quincunx Saturn close at 1.1°
The wish to shine and the wish to be careful need steady adjusting: he moves forward a step, then checks it.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.4°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Jupiter opposition Pluto close at 1.6°
He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mars quincunx Saturn close at 2.1°
When to push and when to wait takes constant judging, and he learns timing the hard way.
Neptune square North Node close at 2.2°
Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.
Saturn opposition North Node close at 2.8°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
Mars sextile Uranus close at 2.9°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
Jupiter trine Neptune close at 3.0°
Faith and imagination together: he believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.
The Sun opposition Jupiter wide at 3.1°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
The Sun conjunction Uranus wide at 3.8°
Born original: his identity and his need for freedom are the same thing, and he surprises people, himself included.
Mars trine Jupiter wide at 4.0°
Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.
The Sun conjunction Pluto wide at 4.7°
Intensity at the centre: he wants the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remakes himself more than once to reach it.
Saturn square Neptune wide at 5.0°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.
Mercury square Mars wide at 5.2°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.
The Sun sextile Neptune wide at 6.1°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Jupiter opposition Uranus wide at 6.9°
Restless hope: he wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.
