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 Aquarius
The Free Thinker. Original, free and humane.
6°31′
Moon in Cancer
The Moon moved from Gemini into Cancer at 11:07 a.m. that day, local time: in Gemini for a birth before then, in Cancer for one after.
0°28′
Mercury in Aquarius

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.
12°23′
Chiron in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.
16°05′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
3°44′
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.
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 imagination (Neptune in Libra) and her intensity (Pluto in Leo) both point at her heart (Venus in Pisces), the part of her that keeps needing adjustment and gives 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.
Venus quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
What she wants from love and what love gives her keep needing adjustment, and she learns to see people as they are.
Jupiter square North Node almost exact at 0.6°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
Venus quincunx Pluto almost exact at 0.9°
Affection and the need for control keep getting in each other’s way, and trust takes her time.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.5°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mars quincunx Pluto close at 1.8°
Force and restraint keep trading places, and she learns when to let go.
Venus conjunction Mars close at 2.7°
Magnetic: affection and desire come together in her, and people notice.

The Sun conjunction North Node wide at 5.9°
