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 Sagittarius
The Explorer. Honest, free and far-seeing.
14°31′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 2:53 p.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.

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 Aquarius
The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
9°28′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
18°08′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
22°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.
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 Sagittarius) and his independence (Uranus in Aquarius) both point at his discipline (Saturn in Cancer), the part of him that kept needing adjustment and gave 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.
Mercury sextile North Node almost exact at 0.5°
His way with words helped him find his direction, and the right ideas came at the right time.
The Sun quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
The wish to shine and the wish to be careful needed steady adjusting: he moved forward a step, then checked it.
The Sun sextile Uranus close at 1.9°
Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.
Saturn quincunx Uranus close at 2.6°
When to keep the rules and when to break them took constant deciding.
Mercury sextile Uranus close at 2.7°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and he saw answers others missed.
Uranus conjunction North Node wide at 3.1°
An unusual path: his direction in life came through sudden turns and fresh starts.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Venus opposition Pluto wide at 3.5°
Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Jupiter trine Saturn wide at 4.3°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreamed big and planned carefully, and both helped.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 4.6°
His mind and his identity were close together: he spoke as he thought, and his ideas were part of who he was.
The Sun square Jupiter wide at 5.0°
He reached for more than one life could hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
The Sun sextile North Node wide at 5.0°
The direction his life took suited him: being himself and growing went hand in hand.
Neptune opposition North Node wide at 7.1°
Dreams and the way forward clashed, and growing meant trading some illusions for clear sight.
