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 Leo
The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.
19°01′
Moon in Aquarius
The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 3:28 a.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.
4°57′
Mercury in Virgo
The Analyst. The editor’s eye.
12°02′
Venus in Cancer
The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.
6°23′
Mars in Virgo
The Craftsperson. The craftsman’s drive.
20°58′

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 her life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
6°05′
Chiron in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.
8°44′
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus
In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.
27°16′
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 drive and her optimism (Mercury, Mars and Jupiter) gather in Virgo, and that part of life drew 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.
Venus quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.3°
She kept adjusting what she wanted from people to fit the life she was growing into.
Saturn conjunction Uranus almost exact at 0.7°
Disciplined originality: she built new things on solid foundations.
Jupiter square Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
She wanted more power than came easily, and the struggle for it shaped her life.
Mars square Neptune close at 1.1°
Drive and dreams mixed uneasily: the goal was clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.
The Moon conjunction North Node close at 1.1°
Her instincts led the way: following her feelings was how she found her direction.
Mercury conjunction Jupiter close at 1.7°
She loved ideas, the bigger the better, and she could talk anyone into hoping.

Saturn quincunx Neptune close at 2.3°
Duty and dreams kept trading places as the priority.
Mercury square Pluto close at 2.5°
Her words had force: she spoke to persuade, and she kept her own counsel until the right moment.
The Sun sextile Neptune close at 3.0°

Mars sextile Saturn wide at 3.3°
Her drive and her discipline worked together easily: she could push hard and keep going.
Mars sextile Uranus wide at 4.0°

The Sun sextile Pluto wide at 4.5°
A quiet strength: under pressure she grew more focused, and she knew how to start over.
The Sun square Saturn wide at 5.3°
Self-belief came slowly and had to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counted.
The Sun square Uranus wide at 6.0°
She needed room to be herself, and any rule that fit too tightly got broken.
Mars square Pluto wide at 6.4°
A fierce will: she met opposition head on, and a fight brought out her full strength.
Mars conjunction Jupiter wide at 7.2°
Enthusiasm at full speed: she charged at life with confidence, and setbacks slowed her only briefly.
Neptune conjunction Pluto wide at 7.5°
Imagination and intensity in one place, a meeting that comes about once in five hundred years: a feel for how things end and begin again.
