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.
9°20′
Moon in Taurus
The Moon moved from Taurus into Gemini at 2:24 p.m. that day, local time: in Taurus for a birth before then, in Gemini for one after.
28°35′
Mercury in Aquarius
The Inventor. The original thinker.
14°55′
Venus in Capricorn
The Loyal Partner. Love built to last.
25°15′
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.
3°05′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
2°36′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
28°55′
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.
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 imagination (Neptune in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and his heart (Venus in Capricorn) took the strain: the part of him that worked 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.
Venus quincunx Pluto exact at 0.0°
Affection and the need for control kept getting in each other’s way, and trust took him time.
Jupiter trine Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreamed big and planned carefully, and both helped.
Venus opposition Uranus close at 1.2°
Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.
Mars trine North Node close at 1.5°
Courage moved him forward, and each bold step took him further along his path.
Venus square Neptune close at 2.8°
He loved the dream of a person, and the real one had to compete with it.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.8°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

The Sun sextile North Node wide at 6.3°
The direction his life took suited him: being himself and growing went hand in hand.
Mercury square Saturn wide at 6.3°
He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.
Venus square Mars wide at 6.3°

Stamina and willpower: he kept going long after others stopped, and he did his best work under pressure.
