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 Taurus
The Gardener. Steady, sensual and sure.
4°12′
Moon in Taurus
The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 1:15 a.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
6°03′
Mercury in Aries

9°52′
Venus in Aries
The Chaser. Love at first sight.

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 Aquarius
The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
28°22′
Chiron in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.
12°28′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
3°01′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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 opposition Saturn almost exact at 0.1°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Jupiter sextile North Node almost exact at 0.6°
Hope helps him grow: faith in what is possible keeps him moving forward.
Saturn square Uranus almost exact at 0.6°
Tradition and rebellion fight in him: he wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.
Mercury square Uranus almost exact at 0.6°
His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.9°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus trine Pluto close at 1.3°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Sun conjunction the Moon close at 1.8°
Born near a new Moon, so what he wants and what he needs move as one: single-minded, and hard to talk out of anything.
Venus opposition Neptune close at 2.1°
He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
Mars trine Uranus close at 2.5°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
The Sun conjunction Jupiter wide at 5.3°
Optimism at the centre of him: he expects things to go well, and that confidence wins people over.
The Sun sextile North Node wide at 5.8°
The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.
Mars square Pluto wide at 6.1°
A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.
The Sun sextile Uranus wide at 6.3°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
The Sun opposition Mars wide at 8.8°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
