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 Pisces, 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 Pisces

    The direction her life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.

    25°49′

  • Chiron in Taurus

    In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.

    21°29′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aries

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

    27°55′

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

PatternsStellium
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, her drive and her independence (the Sun, Mercury, Mars and Uranus) gather in Aries, and that part of life drew her attention first.

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.

  • Uranus square Pluto almost exact at 0.3°

    Upheaval and the urge to break free ran strong, and she pushed for change rather than waiting for it.

  • Venus sextile Mars close at 1.2°

    Charm and desire worked together: she knew what she wanted in love and how to win it.

  • Saturn quincunx Neptune close at 1.4°

    Duty and dreams kept trading places as the priority.

  • Mercury conjunction Uranus close at 2.4°

    She thought in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.

  • The Moon opposition Saturn close at 2.6°

    Feelings came second to duty: she held herself to a high standard, even in private.

  • Venus sextile Jupiter close at 2.6°

    Affection came to her with generosity attached: her heart and her optimism helped each other.

  • Mercury square Pluto close at 2.8°

    Her words had force: she spoke to persuade, and she kept her own counsel until the right moment.

  • Mars trine Jupiter wide at 3.8°

    Big drive and big confidence: she went after large goals, and her enthusiasm carried others along.

  • The Sun square Pluto wide at 4.5°

    Nothing about her was halfway: she insisted on running her own life, and the struggle made her formidable.

  • Mercury trine Jupiter wide at 4.5°

    A generous, wide-ranging mind: she learned easily, told a good story and saw the big picture.

  • Venus square Neptune wide at 4.6°

    She loved the dream of a person, and the real one had to compete with it.

  • The Sun conjunction Uranus wide at 4.9°

    Born original: her identity and her need for freedom were the same thing, and she surprised people, herself included.

  • Pluto trine North Node wide at 5.8°

    Deep change helped her forward: each time she started over, she went further.

  • Venus trine Saturn wide at 6.0°

    Loyal in love: she chose carefully, and what she built with people lasted.

  • Jupiter trine Uranus wide at 7.0°

    Sudden openings: she spotted new chances early and jumped at them.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 7.3°

    Her mind and her identity were close together: she spoke as she thought, and her ideas were part of who she was.
