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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Libra, Chiron and Lilith
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 Libra

    The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.

    5°33′

  • Chiron in Cancer

    In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.

    29°25′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aries

    In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.

    23°03′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

PatternsStellium
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 optimism, his discipline and his independence (Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Aspects by strength18 between the planets, the closest first
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.

  • Jupiter quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.2°

    Some hopes have to be let go to fit the way forward, and he chooses which ones.

  • The Moon square Mercury close at 1.0°

    His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.

  • Pluto sextile North Node close at 1.9°

    Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.

  • Jupiter square Pluto close at 2.1°

    He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.

  • Jupiter conjunction Saturn close at 2.2°

    Optimism with a plan: his hopes are practical, and he builds them slowly into something real.

  • Saturn quincunx North Node close at 2.4°

    Responsibility and growth need steady balancing, and he learns which duties to keep.

  • Mars sextile Neptune close at 2.5°

    He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

  • Mercury trine Saturn close at 2.7°

    A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

  • Mars trine Pluto wide at 3.4°

    Stamina and willpower: he keeps going long after others stop, and he does his best work under pressure.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 3.8°

    His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

  • The Moon opposition North Node wide at 4.1°

    Home comforts and the way forward ask for different things, and growing means leaving some familiar things behind.

  • Saturn square Pluto wide at 4.3°

    Heavy demands and hard limits: he faces a great deal of pressure and comes out tougher for it.

  • Mercury trine Jupiter wide at 4.9°

    A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

  • Mercury square North Node wide at 5.1°

    Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and he learns new ways of thinking to move on.

  • Uranus trine Neptune wide at 5.3°

    Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.

  • The Sun trine Saturn wide at 6.5°

    Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

  • Neptune conjunction North Node wide at 7.9°

    A path lit by imagination: he follows a vision more than a plan.

  • The Sun trine Uranus wide at 8.0°

    Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.

Chart signatureMost in earth signs
What’s this?Close

The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.

Elements

Fire · instinct and enthusiasm4
Earth · the practical and the solid6
Air · ideas and people0
Water · feeling and intuition0

Modes

Cardinal · starting things3
Fixed · holding steady4
Mutable · adapting3

No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.

No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
