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 Aries
The Pioneer. First in, first to try.
6°51′
Moon in Cancer
The Moon moved from Cancer into Leo at 9:37 p.m. that day, local time: in Cancer for a birth before then, in Leo for one after.
25°11′
Mercury in Pisces
The Poet. Knowing without explaining.
24°59′
Venus in Ariesretrograde
The Chaser. Love at first sight.

The Champion. The long shot.

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 Aries
The direction her life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
0°15′
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.
3°02′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
1°32′
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 heart and her discipline (the Sun, Venus and Saturn) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws 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.
The Moon square Venus almost exact at 0.1°
What comforts her and what she loves are different things, so her heart and her moods keep negotiating.
Jupiter opposition North Node almost exact at 0.2°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.
The Moon trine Mercury almost exact at 0.2°
Feeling and thought speak the same language: she can put a mood into words, and her words carry feeling.
The Moon square Saturn almost exact at 0.6°
Feelings come second to duty: she holds herself to a high standard, even in private.
Venus conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
Serious about love: she gives affection slowly, and once given, it stays given.
Jupiter conjunction Uranus close at 1.4°
An inventive optimism: she believes in the new, and she takes leaps others would not.

Uranus opposition North Node close at 1.5°

Mercury conjunction North Node wide at 5.2°

Mercury opposition Jupiter wide at 5.4°
Big ideas and loose details: she thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from her.

The Sun conjunction North Node wide at 6.6°
