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 Sun moved from Pisces into Aries at 7:57 p.m. that day, local time: in Pisces for a birth before then, in Aries for one after.

    29°40′

  • Moon in Virgo

    The Moon moved from Leo into Virgo at 5:30 a.m. that day, local time: in Leo for a birth before then, in Virgo for one after.

    3°14′

  • Mercury in Pisces

    The Poet. Knowing without explaining.

    26°49′

  • Venus in Aries

    The Chaser. Love at first sight.

    13°02′

  • Mars in Taurus

    The Stayer. Slow to start, impossible to stop.

    9°43′

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Pisces, Chiron and Lilith
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.

    11°51′

  • 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.

    5°54′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Leo

    In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.

    11°31′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

Aspects by strength14 between the planets, the closest first
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.

  • Saturn quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.2°

    When to keep the rules and when to break them takes constant deciding.

  • Mercury opposition Pluto almost exact at 0.8°

    His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

  • The Sun trine Neptune close at 1.1°

    Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

  • Jupiter opposition Saturn close at 2.1°

    Growth and caution keep checking each other: he moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.

  • Mars sextile North Node close at 2.1°

    Courage moves him forward, and each bold step takes him further along his path.

  • The Moon square Neptune close at 2.4°

    His feelings and his imagination pull in different directions: he lives between what is real and what he longs for.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury close at 2.9°

    His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

  • Mars conjunction Saturn close at 2.9°

    Controlled force: he works with patience and grit, and he finishes what he starts.

  • The Sun opposition Pluto wide at 3.7°

    Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

  • Mercury trine Neptune wide at 4.0°

    He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.8°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • Mars opposition Jupiter wide at 5.0°

    He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

  • Venus opposition Uranus wide at 6.0°

    Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.

  • The Sun opposition Uranus wide at 7.4°

    He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.
