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 Libra
The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.
16°28′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Scorpio into Sagittarius at 5:03 a.m. that day, local time: in Scorpio for a birth before then, in Sagittarius for one after.
3°30′
Mercury in Libra
The Mediator. Both sides of the question.
12°00′
Venus in Virgo
The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.
4°34′
Mars in Leo

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 Gemini
The direction his life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.
25°21′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
15°06′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
29°56′
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 independence and his intensity (Venus, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws 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.
The Moon square Venus close at 1.1°
What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mars square Neptune close at 1.7°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
The Sun sextile Mars close at 1.7°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
Uranus conjunction Pluto close at 2.5°
Born into a time of upheaval: he wants radical change, and wants it at once.
Mercury sextile Mars close at 2.7°
A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 4.5°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
Venus opposition Saturn wide at 5.8°
