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 Leo
The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.
19°27′
Moon in Taurus
The Moon moved from Aries into Taurus at 6:55 a.m. that day, local time: in Aries for a birth before then, in Taurus for one after.
2°59′
Mercury in Virgo
The Analyst. The editor’s eye.
16°48′
Venus in Cancer
The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.
28°10′
Mars in Taurus
The Stayer. Slow to start, impossible to stop.

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 his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
7°14′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
22°10′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
1°26′
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 discipline, his independence and his imagination (Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws his attention first.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his drive (Mars in Taurus) and his intensity (Pluto in Scorpio) face each other across the wheel, and his identity (the Sun in Leo) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In his chart, his mind, his drive and his discipline (Mercury in Virgo, Mars in Taurus and Saturn in Capricorn) make the triangle, so these come to him 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.
The Sun square Mars almost exact at 0.1°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
Mars trine Saturn almost exact at 0.5°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
Venus conjunction Jupiter almost exact at 0.6°
A generous heart: love and good company come to him easily, and he shares both.
The Sun quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.6°
The wish to shine and the wish to be careful need steady adjusting: he moves forward a step, then checks it.
Mercury sextile Pluto close at 1.8°
A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.
Mercury trine Mars close at 2.8°
A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.8°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury trine Saturn wide at 3.2°
A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.
The Sun square Pluto wide at 4.4°
Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.
Mars opposition Pluto wide at 4.5°
A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.
Mercury trine Neptune wide at 4.5°
He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.
Uranus conjunction Neptune wide at 6.2°
Visionary: the new and the ideal meet in his imagination.
Saturn conjunction Neptune wide at 7.8°
He takes dreams seriously and gives them structure, and his ideals have to prove themselves.
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.

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.
