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.
27°20′
Moon in Virgo
The Moon moved from Leo into Virgo at 5:46 a.m. that day, local time: in Leo for a birth before then, in Virgo for one after.
3°42′
Mercury in Gemini
The Quick Wit. The messenger at home.

The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.

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 his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
0°56′
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.
25°57′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
11°29′
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.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his identity (the Sun in Taurus) and his drive (Mars in Pisces) both point at his independence (Uranus in Libra), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
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 optimism (Jupiter in Aries) and his intensity (Pluto in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and his heart (Venus in Cancer) 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.
Venus quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.6°
What he wants from love and what love gives him keep needing adjustment, and he learns to see people as they are.
The Sun sextile Mars almost exact at 0.8°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
Mars quincunx Uranus close at 1.1°
Effort and restlessness keep catching each other off guard, and his plans change at short notice.
Jupiter square Saturn close at 1.4°
Growth and caution keep checking each other: he moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.
The Sun quincunx Uranus close at 2.0°
His restlessness keeps testing his plans, so he changes course more than once to stay true to himself.
Mars trine North Node close at 2.8°
Courage moves him forward, and each bold step takes him further along his path.

Serious about love: he gives affection slowly, and once given, it stays given.
