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.
3°53′
Moon in Leo
The Moon moved from Cancer into Leo at 10:58 a.m. that day, local time: in Cancer for a birth before then, in Leo for one after.
0°33′
Mercury in Capricorn
The Planner. Foundations first.
17°18′
Venus in Sagittarius
The Adventurer. Love as an adventure.
9°37′

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 Pisces
The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
6°44′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
4°17′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
25°00′
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 his chart, his identity, his mind, his discipline, his independence and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his 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.
Mercury square Mars almost exact at 0.4°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.
The Sun conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
Serious from early on: purpose and duty are one thing to him, and he treats his own life as work to be done well.
Saturn sextile North Node close at 1.9°
Discipline helps him grow: patience and hard work keep him on course.
The Sun conjunction Uranus close at 2.5°
Born original: his identity and his need for freedom are the same thing, and he surprises people, himself included.
Mars quincunx Pluto close at 2.6°
Force and restraint keep trading places, and he learns when to let go.
The Sun sextile North Node close at 2.9°
The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.

Venus square North Node close at 2.9°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.

Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
Saturn conjunction Uranus wide at 3.5°
Disciplined originality: he builds new things on solid foundations.

A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Saturn conjunction Neptune wide at 4.8°

The Sun conjunction Neptune wide at 5.8°
He takes in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gives them back as something new.
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.
Elements
Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
