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 Aquarius, 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 Aquarius

    The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.

    14°02′

  • Chiron in Aries

    In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.

    12°19′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Libra

    In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.

    12°15′

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

PatternsStellium, Grand trine
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 feelings, his mind and his intensity (the Sun, the Moon, Mercury and Pluto) gather in Virgo, 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 drive, his discipline and his independence (Mars in Aquarius, Saturn in Gemini and Uranus in Libra) make the triangle, so these come to him naturally.

Aspects by strength19 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.

  • Venus sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.1°

    Affection comes to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism help each other.

  • Mars trine Uranus almost exact at 0.3°

    Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.

  • Jupiter conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.3°

    A dreamer’s faith: he believes in something larger, and his compassion and his hopes go together.

  • Venus sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.4°

    A romantic with an artist’s eye: he sees the beauty in people and makes it visible to others.

  • Uranus trine North Node close at 1.3°

    Change helps him forward: he grows by trying the new.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.3°

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

  • Mercury square Saturn close at 2.9°

    He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

    Intensity at the centre: he wants the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remakes himself more than once to reach it.

    His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.

  • The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 6.0°
