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 Pisces
The Dreamer. Gentle, dreamy and deep.
10°48′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Scorpio into Sagittarius at 7:02 a.m. that day, local time: in Scorpio for a birth before then, in Sagittarius for one after.
2°53′
Mercury in Pisces
The Poet. Knowing without explaining.
13°06′
Venus in Pisces
The Tender Heart. Love without limits.
20°06′
Mars in Cancerretrograde

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 Libra
The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.
6°07′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
2°15′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
4°49′
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 mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Pisces, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his heart, his drive and his independence (Venus in Pisces, Mars in Cancer and Uranus in Scorpio) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.
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.
Jupiter sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.2°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.
Venus square Neptune close at 1.9°
He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus trine Mars close at 2.2°
Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.
The Sun conjunction Mercury close at 2.3°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
Mercury trine Uranus wide at 3.2°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Venus trine Uranus wide at 3.7°
He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.
Mercury square Neptune wide at 5.1°
Facts and dreams blur together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.
The Sun trine Uranus wide at 5.6°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
Mars trine Uranus wide at 5.9°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
Mars square Pluto wide at 6.1°
A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.
Venus square Jupiter wide at 6.1°
He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
Mercury conjunction Venus wide at 7.0°
Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
The Sun square Neptune wide at 7.4°
The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.
The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 9.3°
Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.
Chart signature
What’s this?Close
The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.
Elements
Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
