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 Taurus
The Gardener. Steady, sensual and sure.
22°00′
Moon in Pisces
The Tide. Tender, and stronger than it looks.
16°25′
Mercury in Aries
The Spark. First to speak.
28°38′

The Chaser. Love at first sight.
21°40′

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.
8°22′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
6°55′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
16°02′
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 mind, his heart, his optimism and his discipline (Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws his attention first.
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 drive and his imagination (the Sun in Taurus, Mars in Capricorn and Neptune in Virgo) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.
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 Capricorn) and his intensity (Pluto in Cancer) face each other across the wheel, and his mind (Mercury in Aries) 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.
Mercury square Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.
Jupiter trine Pluto close at 1.0°
Ambition with depth: he knows how to build influence, and he uses it to make big changes.
Venus quincunx Neptune close at 1.0°
What he wants from love and what love gives him keep needing adjustment, and he learns to see people as they are.
Mars square Saturn close at 1.2°
Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.
The Sun trine Neptune close at 1.4°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Mercury square Mars close at 2.5°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.
