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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Taurus, Chiron and Lilith
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 Taurus

    The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.

    18°51′

  • Chiron in Gemini

    In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.

    4°24′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aries

    In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.

    22°32′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

PatternsStellium, T-square
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 her chart, her identity, her mind and her heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws her attention first.

T-square

Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.

In her chart, her drive (Mars in Taurus) and her intensity (Pluto in Scorpio) face each other across the wheel, and her optimism (Jupiter in Aquarius) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.

Aspects by strength14 between the planets, the closest first
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 trine Uranus almost exact at 0.5°

    A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and she sees answers others miss.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.5°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • Mercury conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.6°

    Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.

  • Uranus quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.9°

    Sudden changes keep shifting the way forward, and she adapts each time.

  • Venus trine Uranus close at 1.0°

    She loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all her own.

  • The Sun quincunx Pluto close at 1.7°

    She keeps rebuilding herself to fit what life asks, and control is the hardest thing to give up.

  • Mars square Jupiter close at 1.8°

    She takes on more than any one person can, and her boldness runs ahead of her plans.

    Feelings come second to duty: she holds herself to a high standard, even in private.

  • The Sun square Neptune close at 2.2°

    The self she knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and she works to keep hold of the real one.

  • Mars opposition Pluto wide at 4.0°

    A fierce will: she meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out her full strength.

  • The Sun sextile Jupiter wide at 4.2°

    Her confidence comes easily and spreads: she thinks big, and other people want to come along.

  • Mars trine Neptune wide at 4.6°

    She works for ideals: her drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

  • Jupiter square Pluto wide at 5.9°

    She wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes her life.

  • The Sun trine Saturn wide at 8.0°

    Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.
