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 Gemini
The Messenger. Curious and many-sided.
27°40′
Moon in Aries
The Moon moved from Pisces into Aries at 9:15 a.m. that day, local time: in Pisces for a birth before then, in Aries for one after.
1°24′
Mercury in Gemini
The Quick Wit. The messenger at home.
5°13′
Venus in Leo
The Romantic. Grand, generous love.
0°37′
Mars in Taurus
The Stayer. Slow to start, impossible to stop.
12°14′

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 Taurus
The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
1°06′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
16°58′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
14°00′
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 identity, her mind and her optimism (the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter) gather in Gemini, 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.
Neptune trine North Node almost exact at 0.1°
Imagination helped her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
Venus square North Node almost exact at 0.5°
What felt comfortable in love and what helped her grow were different things, and she chose between them more than once.
The Sun conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.7°
Optimism at the centre of her: she expected things to go well, and that confidence won people over.
The Moon trine Venus almost exact at 0.8°
She put people at ease without trying: kindness and charm came from the same place.
Jupiter sextile North Node close at 2.8°
Hope helped her grow: faith in what was possible kept her moving forward.
Mars trine Saturn close at 2.8°
Her drive and her discipline worked together easily: she could push hard and keep going.

Jupiter sextile Neptune close at 2.8°
Faith and imagination together: she believed in people and ideals, and that belief was catching.
The Sun sextile North Node wide at 3.4°
The direction her life took suited her: being herself and growing went hand in hand.
The Sun sextile Neptune wide at 3.5°
Imagination and identity worked together: she could become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Uranus square Pluto wide at 3.6°
Upheaval and the urge to break free ran strong, and she pushed for change rather than waiting for it.
Mercury square Neptune wide at 4.0°
Facts and dreams blurred together in her mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details mattered.
Mercury sextile Venus wide at 4.6°
A graceful mind: she spoke kindly and well, and she knew how to say a hard thing gently.
Saturn square Uranus wide at 5.5°
Tradition and rebellion fought in her: she wanted security and freedom, and could rarely have both at once.
