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.
6°07′
Moon in Capricorn
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 1:05 a.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn for one after.

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 Taurus
The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
22°38′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
25°50′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
13°20′
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 heart, her drive and her optimism (Venus, Mars and Jupiter) gather in Cancer, 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.
Uranus conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.6°
Born into a time of upheaval: she wants radical change, and wants it at once.
Jupiter trine Neptune almost exact at 0.9°
Faith and imagination together: she believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.
Jupiter sextile Uranus close at 1.1°
Sudden openings: she spots new chances early and jumps at them.
Jupiter sextile Pluto close at 1.7°
Ambition with depth: she knows how to build influence, and she uses it to make big changes.
The Sun conjunction Mercury close at 1.9°
Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.
Uranus sextile Neptune close at 2.1°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.

Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.
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.
