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 Sagittarius
The Explorer. Honest, free and far-seeing.
13°25′
Moon in Libra
The Moon moved from Libra into Scorpio at 4:20 p.m. that day, local time: in Libra for a birth before then, in Scorpio for one after.
27°22′
Mercury in Capricorn
The Planner. Foundations first.
1°29′
Venus in Sagittarius
The Adventurer. Love as an adventure.
18°51′

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 Pisces
The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
24°58′
Chiron in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.
23°12′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
6°33′
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.
Venus sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.1°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.
Mercury square Saturn almost exact at 0.3°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Jupiter quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.6°
When to expand and when to hold back takes constant rethinking.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.9°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.9°
A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.
Venus trine Pluto close at 1.0°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mars sextile North Node close at 2.2°
Courage moves him forward, and each bold step takes him further along his path.
Mars square Neptune wide at 3.9°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 5.4°
Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.
The Sun sextile Neptune wide at 5.5°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Venus square North Node wide at 6.1°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
Saturn opposition North Node wide at 6.2°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
The Sun trine Pluto wide at 6.4°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
Mercury opposition Uranus wide at 6.9°
His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.
