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 Leo
The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.
7°09′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 1:11 p.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.
29°25′
Mercury in Cancer
The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.
19°46′
Venus in Cancer
The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.
11°28′
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 Sagittarius
The direction her life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
18°34′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
24°30′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
8°47′
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 her chart, her mind, her heart and her discipline (Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws her 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 Sun trine Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Venus conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
Serious about love: she gives affection slowly, and once given, it stays given.
Mercury quincunx North Node close at 1.2°
Her habits of thought need small, steady changes to fit the way forward.
Jupiter square North Node close at 1.6°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun sextile Pluto close at 2.5°
A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Moon trine Mars close at 2.5°
Her feelings turn straight into action: when something matters, she does something about it.
Mercury trine Jupiter close at 2.8°
A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.
Mercury square Uranus wide at 4.2°
Her mind runs ahead of the conversation: she says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
Jupiter trine Saturn wide at 4.8°
Hope and caution in balance: she dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.
Mars square Neptune wide at 5.0°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.
Venus trine Jupiter wide at 5.6°
Affection comes to her with generosity attached: her heart and her optimism help each other.
