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.

The Free Spirit. Free, hopeful and restless.

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 Virgo
The direction his life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
4°16′
Chiron in Leo
In Leo, Chiron is a quiet doubt about deserving the light, and a gift for helping others shine without apology.
19°50′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
29°13′
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 heart and his intensity (the Sun, Venus and Pluto) gather in Leo, and that part of life drew his attention first.
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 drive and his imagination (Mercury, Mars and Neptune) gather in Virgo, and that part of life drew his attention first.
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 feelings (the Moon in Sagittarius) and his discipline (Saturn in Gemini) face each other across the wheel, and his mind (Mercury in Virgo) took the strain: the part of him that worked 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.
Venus sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.1°
He loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.
Uranus square North Node almost exact at 0.1°
The way forward asked for steadiness, and the urge for change kept breaking in.
The Moon square Mercury almost exact at 0.2°
His head and his feelings argued: he knew what he thought before he knew what he felt, or the other way round.
Mars square Saturn almost exact at 0.8°
Drive with the brakes on: he wanted to move, something held him back, and the friction made him tough.
The Moon square Mars close at 1.1°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacted first, and his courage came from the same place as his flashes of anger.
Mercury conjunction Mars close at 1.2°
He thought fast and spoke faster: his mind liked a contest, and his words had an edge.

He needed room to be himself, and any rule that fit too tightly got broken.
