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 Virgo
The Fixer. Precise, useful and kind.
19°24′
Moon in Aries
The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 9:58 p.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
25°00′
Mercury in Virgoretrograde
The Analyst. The editor’s eye.
14°24′
Venus in Libra
The Sweetheart. Grace, romance and balance.
27°52′
Mars in Virgo
The Craftsperson. The craftsman’s drive.

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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
11°36′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
13°04′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
12°09′
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 identity, his mind, his drive and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Mars 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.
Neptune sextile Pluto exact at 0.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Jupiter sextile Saturn close at 1.3°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.
Saturn trine Uranus close at 1.4°
Old and new sit well together: he can change things without throwing out what works.
Uranus square North Node close at 1.8°
The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.
Jupiter sextile Uranus close at 2.7°
Sudden openings: he spots new chances early and jumps at them.
Mercury sextile North Node close at 2.8°
His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Moon opposition Venus close at 2.9°
What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.
Venus sextile Pluto close at 2.9°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
Venus conjunction Neptune close at 3.0°
Romance without limits: he falls for ideals as much as people, and his taste runs to the dreamy and the beautiful.
The Sun conjunction Mars close at 3.0°
Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 5.0°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
Mercury square Saturn wide at 5.9°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
