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 Cancer
The Protector. Home, memory and care.
29°11′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Scorpio into Sagittarius at 1:28 a.m. that day, local time: in Scorpio for a birth before then, in Sagittarius for one after.
6°14′
Mercury in Cancer
The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.
14°07′
Venus in Gemini
The Charmer. Love through conversation.
28°44′
Mars in Cancer
The Defender. Fierce for its own.
4°35′

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 Aquarius
The direction her life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
10°18′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
8°16′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
0°26′
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 mind, her drive and her intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Mars and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew her 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.
Neptune quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.3°
She grew by testing her ideals against real life, again and again.
Mercury square Jupiter close at 1.7°
Big ideas and loose details: she thought on a large scale, and the small print was where things got away from her.
Venus trine Saturn close at 2.0°
Loyal in love: she chose carefully, and what she built with people lasted.
The Sun square Uranus close at 2.2°
She needed room to be herself, and any rule that fit too tightly got broken.
Saturn quincunx Pluto close at 2.3°
She kept adjusting between control and acceptance, and learned where each belonged.
The Sun quincunx Saturn close at 2.5°
The wish to shine and the wish to be careful needed steady adjusting: she moved forward a step, then checked it.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Venus sextile Uranus close at 2.6°
She loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all her own.
Mars sextile Uranus wide at 3.2°
Quick and inventive in action: she moved fast, broke with habit and made sudden changes work.
Mercury sextile Neptune wide at 3.5°
She thought in pictures and music: her words carried a mood, and her imagination gave her ideas colour.
Saturn sextile Uranus wide at 4.7°
Old and new sat well together: she could change things without throwing out what worked.
The Sun conjunction Pluto wide at 4.7°
Intensity at the centre: she wanted the whole truth about everything, herself first, and she remade herself more than once to reach it.
Jupiter trine North Node wide at 5.5°
Hope helped her grow: faith in what was possible kept her moving forward.
Venus conjunction Mars wide at 5.8°
Magnetic: affection and desire came together in her, and people noticed.
Uranus square Pluto wide at 6.9°
Upheaval and the urge to break free ran strong, and she pushed for change rather than waiting for it.
Chart signature
What’s this?Close
The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.

The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
