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 Sagittarius, 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 Sagittarius

    The direction her life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.

    2°05′

  • 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.

    23°29′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Pisces

    In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.

    6°43′

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 optimism (the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter) 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 identity (the Sun in Aries) and her intensity (Pluto in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and her discipline (Saturn in Cancer) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.

Aspects by strength15 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.

  • Saturn quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.8°

    Duty and dreams keep trading places as the priority.

  • Mercury conjunction Jupiter close at 1.1°

    She loves ideas, the bigger the better, and she can talk anyone into hoping.

  • Mercury trine North Node close at 1.4°

    Her way with words helps her find her direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.

  • Jupiter trine North Node close at 2.4°

    Hope helps her grow: faith in what is possible keeps her moving forward.

  • The Moon square Venus wide at 3.1°

    What comforts her and what she loves are different things, so her heart and her moods keep negotiating.

  • Jupiter opposition Pluto wide at 3.1°

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

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • The Sun square Saturn wide at 3.5°

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

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.0°

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

  • Mercury opposition Pluto wide at 4.2°

    Her words have force: she speaks to persuade, and she keeps her own counsel until the right moment.

  • The Sun trine Neptune wide at 4.3°

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

  • Saturn square Pluto wide at 4.8°

    Heavy demands and hard limits: she faces a great deal of pressure and comes out tougher for it.

  • Venus square Mars wide at 4.8°

    In love she wants tenderness and a chase at once, and her relationships are rarely calm.

  • Mars trine Uranus wide at 5.2°

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

  • Mars square North Node wide at 6.2°

    Old fights and the way forward disagree, and she grows by choosing which battles matter.

  • The Sun opposition Pluto wide at 8.3°

    Nothing about her is halfway: she insists on running her own life, and the struggle makes her formidable.
