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 Aries
The Pioneer. First in, first to try.
24°45′
Moon in Libra
The Peacemaker. Needing harmony.
7°06′

The Careful Thinker. Slow to decide, sure once decided.
14°29′

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 Aries
The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
26°18′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
22°48′
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 optimism, his independence and his intensity (Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Leo, 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.
Jupiter trine Neptune exact at 0.0°
Faith and imagination together: he believed in people and ideals, and that belief was catching.
Jupiter conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.4°
Large ambitions and the will to see them through: he worked on a grand scale.
Neptune trine Pluto almost exact at 0.4°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.5°
Affection and independence needed constant trading off, and he kept renegotiating the terms of his relationships.
The Sun conjunction North Node close at 1.5°
His identity and his direction in life lined up: the more fully he became himself, the further he went.
The Moon square Mars close at 2.0°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacted first, and his courage came from the same place as his flashes of anger.
