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 Leo, 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 Leo

    The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.

    4°44′

  • Chiron in Aries

    In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.

    28°09′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Cancer

    In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.

    22°51′

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 his chart, his mind, his heart, his drive and his imagination (Mercury, Venus, Mars and Neptune) gather in Leo, and that part of life draws his 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.

  • The Moon trine Pluto exact at 0.0°

    His feelings run deep and hold steady: he comes through hard times with more strength than he goes in with.

  • Mercury square Saturn almost exact at 0.1°

    He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

  • The Sun opposition Jupiter almost exact at 0.2°

    He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

  • Mercury conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.3°

    Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

  • Venus square Saturn almost exact at 0.4°

    Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

  • Venus conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.7°

    Magnetic: affection and desire come together in him, and people notice.

  • Mercury conjunction Mars close at 1.0°

    He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.

  • Mars square Saturn close at 1.1°

    Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.

  • Saturn square North Node close at 2.9°

    Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.

  • Mercury conjunction North Node close at 3.0°

    Ideas and talk set his course: he finds his direction by learning and talking things through.

  • Venus conjunction North Node wide at 3.3°

    Following his heart is following his path: the people and pleasures he loves lead him forward.

  • Mars conjunction North Node wide at 4.0°

    Driven towards his path: he goes after the life he wants with real force.

  • The Sun conjunction Pluto wide at 4.2°

    Intensity at the centre: he wants the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remakes himself more than once to reach it.

  • Jupiter opposition Pluto wide at 4.5°

    He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.

  • Saturn trine Pluto wide at 5.6°

    Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.

  • The Sun trine Uranus wide at 8.0°

    Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.

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.

Elements

Fire · instinct and enthusiasm4
Earth · the practical and the solid1
Air · ideas and people0
Water · feeling and intuition5

Modes

Cardinal · starting things3
Fixed · holding steady5
Mutable · adapting2

No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
