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 Libra
The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.
2°21′
Moon in Libra
The Moon moved from Libra into Scorpio at 1:41 p.m. that day, local time: in Libra for a birth before then, in Scorpio for one after.
28°59′
Mercury in Virgo
The Analyst. The editor’s eye.
14°31′
Venus in Scorpio
The Devotee. All or nothing.
13°25′

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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
11°02′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
12°38′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
13°38′
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.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.1°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Jupiter sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.5°
Sudden openings: he spotted new chances early and jumped at them.
Uranus square North Node almost exact at 0.6°
The way forward asked for steadiness, and the urge for change kept breaking in.
Jupiter sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreamed big and planned carefully, and both helped.
Mercury sextile Venus close at 1.1°
A graceful mind: he spoke kindly and well, and he knew how to say a hard thing gently.
Saturn trine Uranus close at 1.2°
Old and new sat well together: he could change things without throwing out what worked.

The Sun conjunction Mars close at 1.4°
Purpose and drive in one place: he was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
The Moon conjunction Neptune close at 2.3°
Feelings without edges: other people’s sorrow and joy reached him as if they were his own.
Venus conjunction North Node close at 2.4°
Following his heart was following his path: the people and pleasures he loved led him forward.
Venus square Uranus close at 3.0°
Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.
Mercury sextile North Node wide at 3.5°
His way with words helped him find his direction, and the right ideas came at the right time.
Mercury square Saturn wide at 5.3°
He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.
The Sun conjunction Jupiter wide at 7.6°
Optimism at the centre of him: he expected things to go well, and that confidence won people over.
