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 Aries, 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 Aries

    The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.

    13°07′

  • 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.

    3°19′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Gemini

    In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.

    3°08′

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

PatternsStellium, Stellium, Yod
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 drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Stellium

Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.

In his chart, his optimism, his independence and his intensity (Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first.

Yod

Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.

In his chart, his independence (Uranus in Virgo) and his imagination (Neptune in Scorpio) both point at his discipline (Saturn in Aries), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.

Aspects by strength16 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.

  • The Sun trine Neptune almost exact at 0.4°

    Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

  • The Moon square Mars almost exact at 0.7°

    Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacts first, and his courage comes from the same place as his flashes of anger.

  • Mercury sextile Jupiter almost exact at 0.7°

    A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.

  • Saturn quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.8°

    When to keep the rules and when to break them takes constant deciding.

  • The Sun square Saturn almost exact at 0.9°

    Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.

  • Saturn quincunx Neptune close at 1.3°

    Duty and dreams keep trading places as the priority.

  • Mars square North Node wide at 3.9°

    Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
