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°24′
Moon in Pisces
The Moon moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 8:48 a.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.
2°01′
Mercury in Capricorn

The Adventurer. Love as an adventure.

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 Leo
The direction her life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
6°47′
Chiron in Virgo
In Virgo, Chiron is the sense that no effort is ever quite enough, and a gift for patient, practical help.
15°07′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
27°31′
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 drive, her discipline and her independence (Mars, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws her attention first.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In her chart, her identity, her drive and her imagination (the Sun in Aquarius, Mars in Gemini and Neptune in Libra) make the triangle, so these come to her naturally.

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 sextile North Node almost exact at 0.2°
Courage moves her forward, and each bold step takes her further along her path.
The Sun trine Mars almost exact at 0.2°
Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.
The Sun opposition North Node almost exact at 0.4°
Being herself and growing ask for different things, and her biggest steps forward come when she stretches past her habits.
Uranus trine Neptune almost exact at 0.8°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Pluto conjunction North Node almost exact at 0.8°
A path of transformation: her direction in life asks her to change herself completely, more than once.
Mars sextile Pluto close at 1.0°
Stamina and willpower: she keeps going long after others stop, and she does her best work under pressure.
