The chart, fact by fact

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 Libra
The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.

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.
1°56′
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.
7°46′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
3°54′
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 and his independence (the Sun, Mercury and Uranus) gather in Libra, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In his chart, his heart, his optimism and his imagination (Venus, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.
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 feelings, his drive and his discipline (the Moon in Capricorn, Mars in Virgo and Saturn in Taurus) 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.
Venus sextile Mars almost exact at 0.1°
Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.
Mercury quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.4°
His habits of thought need small, steady changes to fit the way forward.
The Moon trine Saturn almost exact at 0.6°
Steady feelings: he keeps calm under strain, and he loves in ways that last.
Mars trine Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
Venus opposition Saturn close at 1.0°
Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.1°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

Concentrated force: when he wants something, he goes after it with everything.
