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 Libra
The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.
12°40′
Moon in Gemini
The Moon moved from Taurus into Gemini at 9:59 a.m. that day, local time: in Taurus for a birth before then, in Gemini for one after.
1°15′
Mercury in Virgo
The Analyst. The editor’s eye.
24°50′
Venus in Libra
The Sweetheart. Grace, romance and balance.

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 Cancer
The direction her life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.
16°04′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
11°11′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
18°56′
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 her chart, her mind, her independence and her intensity (Mercury, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws her attention first.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In her chart, her drive (Mars in Scorpio) and her intensity (Pluto in Virgo) both point at her optimism (Jupiter in Aries), the part of her that keeps needing adjustment and gives her 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.
Mars square Saturn almost exact at 0.1°
Drive with the brakes on: she wants to move, something holds her back, and the friction makes her tough.
Mars trine North Node almost exact at 0.5°
Courage moves her forward, and each bold step takes her further along her path.
Jupiter quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
Her ideals and her beliefs need constant matching up, and she keeps asking what she really believes.
Saturn quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.6°
Responsibility and growth need steady balancing, and she learns which duties to keep.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.2°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Jupiter square North Node close at 1.4°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
