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 Capricorn
The Architect. Ambitious, patient and dry.
15°54′
Moon in Capricorn
The Steady Hand. Steady feeling, kept in check.
8°40′
Mercury in Sagittarius
The Philosopher. The big picture.
25°18′
Venus in Aquarius
Venus moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 10:28 p.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.
29°30′
Mars in Sagittarius
The Champion. The long shot.

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 her life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
6°56′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
7°37′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
24°06′
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 her chart, her identity, her feelings and her optimism (the Sun, the Moon and Jupiter) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life drew her 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 her chart, her discipline (Saturn in Taurus) and her imagination (Neptune in Cancer) both point at her mind (Mercury in Sagittarius), the part of her that kept needing adjustment and gave her life its focus.

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.
Mars quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.4°
When to push and when to wait took constant judging, and she learned timing the hard way.
Mercury quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.4°
Meaning came to her before the words did, and clear speech followed the feeling.
Venus trine Pluto almost exact at 0.8°
She loved with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she formed changed both people.
Venus sextile Jupiter close at 1.4°
Affection came to her with generosity attached: her heart and her optimism helped each other.
Mars opposition Pluto close at 1.5°
A fierce will: she met opposition head on, and a fight brought out her full strength.
The Moon square North Node close at 1.7°
Home comforts and the way forward asked for different things, and growing meant leaving some familiar things behind.
