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.
9°57′
Moon in Capricorn
The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 9:08 p.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.
25°14′
Mercury in Capricorn
The Planner. Foundations first.
20°53′
Venus in Sagittarius
The Adventurer. Love as an adventure.
14°12′

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 Taurus
The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
2°26′
Chiron in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.
4°05′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
18°16′
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 conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.3°
Optimism at the centre of her: she expected things to go well, and that confidence won people over.
Venus sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.9°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: she saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mars quincunx Uranus close at 1.2°
Effort and restlessness kept catching each other off guard, and her plans changed at short notice.
The Moon conjunction Mars close at 1.6°
Her feelings ran hot and fast, and she protected the people she loved fiercely.
Venus trine Pluto close at 1.9°
She loved with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she formed changed both people.
