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 Aquarius
The Free Thinker. Original, free and humane.
8°29′
Moon in Taurus
The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 9:54 a.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
1°02′
Mercury in Capricorn
The Planner. Foundations first.
23°58′
Venus in Pisces
The Tender Heart. Love without limits.
25°22′
Mars in Pisces
The Gentle Warrior. Strength that flows round.

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 Taurus
The direction his life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
24°11′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
3°21′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
16°12′
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 optimism and his imagination (Mercury, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws 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 Taurus) and his intensity (Pluto in Scorpio) face each other across the wheel, and his optimism (Jupiter in Capricorn) 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 trine North Node almost exact at 0.2°
His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.
Venus conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.7°
Magnetic: affection and desire come together in him, and people notice.
Mars trine Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
Jupiter sextile Saturn close at 1.0°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.
Venus sextile North Node close at 1.2°
Love and friendship move him forward: the people he cares for help him find his way.
Mercury sextile Venus close at 1.4°
A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.
