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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Scorpio, Chiron and Lilith
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 Scorpio

    The direction her life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.

    3°32′

  • Chiron in Taurus

    In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.

    0°06′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Taurus

    In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.

    8°27′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

PatternsStellium, Stellium
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 identity, her mind and her intensity (the Sun, Mercury and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Stellium

Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.

In her chart, her heart, her drive and her independence (Venus, Mars and Uranus) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Aspects by strength12 between the planets, the closest first
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.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto exact at 0.0°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • Mercury trine Jupiter close at 1.2°

    A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

  • Mars conjunction North Node close at 1.5°

    Driven towards her path: she goes after the life she wants with real force.

  • Mars quincunx Jupiter close at 1.6°

    Drive and hope keep going in slightly different directions, and she aims again and again.

  • Uranus conjunction North Node close at 2.8°

    An unusual path: her direction in life comes through sudden turns and fresh starts.

  • The Moon conjunction Jupiter close at 3.0°

    Big feelings and a big heart: her good moods lift everyone near, and she gives comfort freely.

  • Saturn sextile Pluto close at 3.0°

    Endurance: she can work through hard times, and what she builds survives pressure.

  • Saturn trine Neptune wide at 3.1°

    Practical dreams: she gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.

  • The Sun sextile Saturn wide at 3.7°

    Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.

  • Venus square Saturn wide at 4.2°

    Love feels like something to be earned, and she holds back until she is sure of it.

  • Mars conjunction Uranus wide at 4.3°

    Electric: she acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.

  • The Sun conjunction Pluto wide at 6.7°

    Intensity at the centre: she wants the whole truth about everything, herself first, and she remakes herself more than once to reach it.
