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 Scorpio
The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.
17°32′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 3:11 p.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.
28°26′
Mercury in Sagittarius
The Philosopher. The big picture.
10°07′
Venus in Libra
The Sweetheart. Grace, romance and balance.
12°00′
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 Capricorn
The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.
18°28′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
13°42′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
29°03′
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 his chart, his heart, his drive, his independence and his intensity (Venus, Mars, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Libra, and that part of life drew his 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.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Saturn quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.9°
Responsibility and growth needed steady balancing, and he learned which duties to keep.
The Sun sextile North Node almost exact at 0.9°
The direction his life took suited him: being himself and growing went hand in hand.
Saturn trine Uranus close at 1.2°
Old and new sat well together: he could change things without throwing out what worked.
The Sun quincunx Saturn close at 1.8°
The wish to shine and the wish to be careful needed steady adjusting: he moved forward a step, then checked it.
Mercury sextile Venus close at 1.9°
A graceful mind: he spoke kindly and well, and he knew how to say a hard thing gently.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Uranus square North Node close at 2.0°
The way forward asked for steadiness, and the urge for change kept breaking in.
Jupiter square Pluto close at 3.0°
He wanted more power than came easily, and the struggle for it shaped his life.
Venus square Jupiter wide at 5.4°
He loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.
Mars conjunction Uranus wide at 5.5°
Electric: he acted on impulse, loved a risk and refused to be told what to do.
Mercury conjunction Neptune wide at 5.8°
A poet’s mind: he heard what went unsaid, and his best ideas came from somewhere hard to explain.
Chart signature
What’s this?Close
The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.

The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
