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.
23°30′
Moon in Scorpio
The Moon moved from Scorpio into Sagittarius at 1:40 p.m. that day, local time: in Scorpio for a birth before then, in Sagittarius for one after.
29°06′
Mercury in Leoretrograde

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 Cancer
The direction his life grows in: Cancer, protective and caring.
15°44′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
2°07′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
7°35′
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 imagination (the Sun, Mercury and Neptune) gather in Leo, 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 identity and his imagination (the Sun and Neptune, together in Leo) and his optimism (Jupiter in Aquarius) face each other across the wheel, and his discipline (Saturn in Scorpio) took the strain: the part of him that worked hardest.
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 feelings, his heart and his independence (the Moon in Scorpio, Venus in Cancer and Uranus in Pisces) make the triangle, so these came 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.
Venus trine Uranus exact at 0.0°
He loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.
The Moon trine Venus almost exact at 0.3°
He put people at ease without trying: kindness and charm came from the same place.
The Moon trine Uranus almost exact at 0.4°
His feelings liked freedom: he needed space in close ties and gave it back just as easily.
Pluto conjunction North Node almost exact at 0.5°
A path of transformation: his direction in life asked him to change himself completely, more than once.
The Sun conjunction Neptune close at 1.0°
He took in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gave them back as something new.
Mercury square Mars close at 1.3°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argued well, sometimes too well, and a debate was a kind of sport to him.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Sun opposition Jupiter close at 1.4°
He reached for more than one life could hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Jupiter square Saturn close at 2.2°
Growth and caution kept checking each other: he moved forward in bursts, then paused to consolidate.
Jupiter opposition Neptune close at 2.4°
His hopes ran ahead of what was real, and he learned to check a beautiful idea against the facts.
The Sun square Saturn wide at 3.6°
Self-belief came slowly and had to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counted.
Saturn trine North Node wide at 4.1°
Discipline helped him grow: patience and hard work kept him on course.
Saturn square Neptune wide at 4.6°
The dream and the hard work seldom agreed on terms: his discipline and his imagination asked different things of him.
Saturn trine Pluto wide at 4.6°
Endurance: he could work through hard times, and what he built survived pressure.
