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 Gemini
The Messenger. Curious and many-sided.
4°17′
Moon in Scorpio
The Moon moved from Libra into Scorpio at 4:01 a.m. that day, local time: in Libra for a birth before then, in Scorpio for one after.
3°57′
Mercury in Taurus
The Careful Thinker. Slow to decide, sure once decided.
22°05′
Venus in Cancer
The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.

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 Capricorn
The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.
27°29′
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.
16°05′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
10°13′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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 opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.4°
The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.
The Moon trine Venus almost exact at 0.7°
He puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.
Venus quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.8°
What he wants from love and what love gives him keep needing adjustment, and he learns to see people as they are.
Mars opposition Jupiter close at 1.3°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Pluto trine North Node close at 1.9°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
Venus opposition Jupiter close at 2.2°
He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
