Sun in Leo
The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.

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 Aries
The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
18°13′
Chiron in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.
2°54′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
13°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 mind, his heart and his discipline (Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Virgo, 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.
Mars square Neptune almost exact at 0.1°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
The Sun trine North Node almost exact at 0.4°
The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.
Mercury sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.5°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.
Venus quincunx North Node close at 1.1°
He keeps adjusting what he wants from people to fit the life he is growing into.
The Moon opposition Venus close at 1.5°
What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.
Pluto trine North Node close at 2.0°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Sun conjunction Pluto close at 2.4°
Intensity at the centre: he wants the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remakes himself more than once to reach it.
Mercury conjunction Saturn close at 2.8°
Serious thoughts: he says less than he knows, and what he says holds up.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.2°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Saturn sextile Uranus wide at 3.4°
Old and new sit well together: he can change things without throwing out what works.
Venus trine Jupiter wide at 5.2°
Affection comes to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism help each other.
Neptune opposition North Node wide at 5.2°
Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.
Mars square North Node wide at 5.3°
Old fights and the way forward disagree, and he grows by choosing which battles matter.
The Sun sextile Neptune wide at 5.6°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Jupiter square North Node wide at 6.3°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
