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 Sagittarius
The Explorer. Honest, free and far-seeing.
19°29′
Moon in Virgo
The Moon moved from Leo into Virgo at 10:00 a.m. that day, local time: in Leo for a birth before then, in Virgo for one after.
1°03′
Mercury in Sagittarius
The Philosopher. The big picture.
21°54′
Venus in Aquarius
The Kindred Spirit. Friend first, lover too.
1°47′
Mars in Libra
The Negotiator. A fighter for fairness.

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 Aries
The direction her life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
6°20′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
28°51′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
19°38′
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 drive, her optimism and her independence (Mars, Jupiter and Uranus) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws her attention first.
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.
Jupiter conjunction Uranus exact at 0.0°
An inventive optimism: she believes in the new, and she takes leaps others would not.
The Sun sextile Mars almost exact at 0.2°
Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.
Mars opposition Saturn almost exact at 0.5°
Drive with the brakes on: she wants to move, something holds her back, and the friction makes her tough.
The Sun trine Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.
Venus trine Jupiter close at 1.8°
Affection comes to her with generosity attached: her heart and her optimism help each other.
Venus trine Uranus close at 1.9°
She loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all her own.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.1°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun conjunction Mercury close at 2.4°
Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.
Mercury sextile Mars close at 2.6°
A quick, direct mind: she makes decisions fast and says what she means.
Uranus opposition North Node close at 2.7°
The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.
Jupiter opposition North Node close at 2.7°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
Mercury trine Saturn wide at 3.1°
A patient, exact mind: she chooses every word, and her thinking gets sharper with practice.
Mercury square Pluto wide at 3.1°
Her words have force: she speaks to persuade, and she keeps her own counsel until the right moment.
The Sun square Pluto wide at 5.5°
Nothing about her is halfway: she insists on running her own life, and the struggle makes her formidable.
