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 Pisces
The Dreamer. Gentle, dreamy and deep.
26°22′
Moon in Capricorn
The Steady Hand. Steady feeling, kept in check.
8°00′
Mercury in Aquarius
Mercury moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 2:49 p.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.
29°51′
Venus in Aquarius
The Kindred Spirit. Friend first, lover too.

Mars in Taurus
The Stayer. Slow to start, impossible to stop.

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.
1°30′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
3°45′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
0°49′
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.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his identity, his optimism and his discipline (the Sun in Pisces, Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Scorpio) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his identity, his discipline and his independence (the Sun in Pisces, Saturn in Scorpio and Uranus in Cancer) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his imagination (Neptune in Libra) and his intensity (Pluto in Leo) both point at his identity (the Sun in Pisces), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his drive (Mars in Taurus) and his discipline (Saturn in Scorpio) face each other across the wheel, and his heart (Venus in Aquarius) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
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 trine Saturn close at 1.1°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.
The Sun quincunx Neptune close at 1.3°
He keeps redrawing the line between the life he has and the life he imagines.
The Sun quincunx Pluto close at 1.5°
He keeps rebuilding himself to fit what life asks, and control is the hardest thing to give up.
Venus square Mars close at 1.6°
In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.
Mercury sextile North Node close at 1.6°
His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.
Mercury trine Neptune close at 2.2°
He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.
