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 Pisces
The Dreamer. Gentle, dreamy and deep.
23°28′
Moon in Libra
The Moon moved from Libra into Scorpio at 8:28 p.m. that day, local time: in Libra for a birth before then, in Scorpio 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 Pisces
The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
7°44′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
24°30′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
5°13′
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 drive, his optimism and his imagination (Mars, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his 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 square Pluto almost exact at 0.3°
Upheaval and the urge to break free run strong, and he pushes for change rather than waiting for it.
Neptune opposition North Node almost exact at 0.7°
Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.
Mercury quincunx Neptune close at 1.0°
Meaning comes to him before the words do, and clear speech follows the feeling.
Mercury quincunx Mars close at 1.4°
Thinking and doing keep getting out of step: he acts on half a thought, or thinks past the moment to act.
Mars opposition North Node close at 1.7°
Old fights and the way forward disagree, and he grows by choosing which battles matter.
The Sun trine Pluto close at 2.1°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mars conjunction Neptune close at 2.4°
Action guided by imagination: he moves on instinct and feeling, and he gives his all to a vision.
Jupiter sextile Pluto wide at 3.6°
Ambition with depth: he knows how to build influence, and he uses it to make big changes.
Venus opposition Jupiter wide at 3.9°
He loves too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures run past what one life can use.
Venus opposition Neptune wide at 5.3°
He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
The Sun opposition Jupiter wide at 5.8°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Venus conjunction North Node wide at 6.0°
Following his heart is following his path: the people and pleasures he loves lead him forward.
The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 9.7°
Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to his core.
