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 Capricorn
The Architect. Ambitious, patient and dry.
26°57′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 5:42 p.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.
26°26′
Mercury in Aquarius
The Inventor. The original thinker.
12°35′
Venus in Aquarius
The Kindred Spirit. Friend first, lover too.
5°56′
Mars in Taurus
The Stayer. Slow to start, impossible to stop.

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 Sagittarius
The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
15°30′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
3°56′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
0°39′
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 drive (Mars in Taurus) and his optimism (Jupiter in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and his identity (the Sun in Capricorn) took the strain: the part of him that worked 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.
Venus trine Saturn almost exact at 0.4°
Loyal in love: he chose carefully, and what he built with people lasted.
The Sun square Jupiter almost exact at 0.5°
He reached for more than one life could hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Uranus opposition North Node close at 1.7°
The way forward asked for steadiness, and the urge for change kept breaking in.
Mercury sextile North Node close at 2.9°
His way with words helped him find his direction, and the right ideas came at the right time.
Mercury square Pluto wide at 3.2°
His words had force: he spoke to persuade, and he kept his own counsel until the right moment.
Venus square Pluto wide at 3.5°
Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Saturn opposition Neptune wide at 4.1°
The dream and the hard work seldom agreed on terms: his discipline and his imagination asked different things of him.
The Sun square Mars wide at 4.2°
He fought hard for what he wanted, and his temper was part of his courage.
The Sun sextile Neptune wide at 4.5°
Imagination and identity worked together: he could become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Mercury trine Uranus wide at 4.6°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and he saw answers others missed.
Mars opposition Jupiter wide at 4.7°
He took on more than any one person could, and his boldness ran ahead of his plans.
Venus square Mars wide at 4.8°
In love he wanted tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships were rarely calm.
Mercury conjunction Venus wide at 6.7°
Words with charm in them: he had an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people liked listening to him.
The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 9.0°
Charm came naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things were close to his core.
Chart signature
What’s this?Close
The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.
Elements
Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No water at all, so feelings came out in actions more than in words.
