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 Virgo, 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 Virgo

    The direction her life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.

    18°59′

  • Chiron in Pisces

    In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.

    2°09′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Cancer

    In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.

    5°06′

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

PatternsStellium, Grand trine
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 heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Grand trine

Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.

In her chart, her drive, her optimism and her intensity (Mars in Taurus, Jupiter in Sagittarius and Pluto in Virgo) make the triangle, so these come to her naturally.

Aspects by strength18 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.

  • The Sun conjunction Venus exact at 0.0°

    Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to her core.

  • Venus sextile Mars almost exact at 0.5°

    Charm and desire work together: she knows what she wants in love and how to win it.

  • The Sun sextile Mars almost exact at 0.5°

    Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.

  • Saturn quincunx Uranus close at 2.2°

    When to keep the rules and when to break them takes constant deciding.

  • Mars trine Pluto close at 2.2°

    Stamina and willpower: she keeps going long after others stop, and she does her best work under pressure.

  • Mercury quincunx Jupiter close at 2.5°

    The facts and the bigger picture need constant reconciling, and she keeps checking one against the other.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.6°

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

  • Venus sextile Pluto close at 2.7°

    She loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she forms change both people.

  • The Sun sextile Pluto close at 2.7°

    A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.

  • Saturn trine North Node close at 2.8°

    Discipline helps her grow: patience and hard work keep her on course.

  • The Sun opposition Jupiter close at 2.8°

    She reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

  • Venus opposition Jupiter close at 2.9°

    She loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.

  • Mars trine Jupiter wide at 3.3°

    Big drive and big confidence: she goes after large goals, and her enthusiasm carries others along.

  • Mars opposition Neptune wide at 4.8°

    Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.

  • Venus trine Neptune wide at 5.3°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: she sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

  • The Sun trine Neptune wide at 5.3°

    Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

  • Jupiter trine Pluto wide at 5.5°

    Ambition with depth: she knows how to build influence, and she uses it to make big changes.

  • Mercury square Mars wide at 5.8°

    Sharp words and a sharp mind: she argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to her.
