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.
10°54′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 9:17 p.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.
24°30′
Mercury in Cancer
The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.
25°19′
Venus in Virgo
The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.
9°05′
Mars in Aries
The Trailblazer. First through the door.
16°17′

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 Virgo
The direction her life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
23°34′
Chiron in Leo
In Leo, Chiron is a quiet doubt about deserving the light, and a gift for helping others shine without apology.
5°32′
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus
In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.
16°28′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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 sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
She thinks in pictures and music: her words carry a mood, and her imagination gives her ideas colour.
The Moon square North Node almost exact at 0.9°
Home comforts and the way forward ask for different things, and growing means leaving some familiar things behind.
The Moon square Neptune close at 1.3°
Her feelings and her imagination pull in different directions: she lives between what is real and what she longs for.
Mars sextile Jupiter close at 1.5°
Big drive and big confidence: she goes after large goals, and her enthusiasm carries others along.
Saturn trine Neptune close at 1.5°
Practical dreams: she gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.
Mercury sextile North Node close at 1.7°
Her way with words helps her find her direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.

The Sun sextile Jupiter wide at 3.9°

Uranus trine Neptune wide at 4.1°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Uranus sextile Pluto wide at 4.2°
She can help change things at the root, and upheaval suits her.
The Sun trine Mars wide at 5.4°
Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.
Venus square Jupiter wide at 5.7°
She loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
Uranus trine North Node wide at 6.3°
Change helps her forward: she grows by trying the new.
The Sun conjunction Pluto wide at 6.8°
Intensity at the centre: she wants the whole truth about everything, herself first, and she remakes herself more than once to reach it.
