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 Gemini
The Messenger. Curious and many-sided.
28°57′
Moon in Capricorn
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 2:45 a.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.
5°12′
Mercury in Cancer
The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.
23°47′
Venus in Cancerretrograde
The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.
8°56′

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.
17°17′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
19°51′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
1°03′
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 mind, his heart and his drive (Mercury, Venus and Mars) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew his attention first.

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 sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.3°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and he saw answers others missed.
Mercury sextile Neptune close at 1.0°
He thought in pictures and music: his words carried a mood, and his imagination gave his ideas colour.
Mars sextile Neptune close at 1.1°
He worked for ideals: his drive came alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
Uranus trine Neptune close at 1.3°
Change and idealism went together: new ideas came wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Venus sextile Jupiter close at 1.5°
Affection came to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism helped each other.
Mercury conjunction Mars close at 2.0°
He thought fast and spoke faster: his mind liked a contest, and his words had an edge.

He wanted more power than came easily, and the struggle for it shaped his life.
The Sun square Neptune wide at 6.1°
