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 Taurus
The Gardener. Steady, sensual and sure.
16°17′
Moon in Leo
The Moon moved from Cancer into Leo at 12:05 a.m. that day, local time: in Cancer for a birth before then, in Leo for one after.
6°48′
Mercury in Aries
The Spark. First to speak.
23°21′
Venus in Gemini
The Charmer. Love through conversation.
9°46′

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 Gemini
The direction his life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.
21°20′
Chiron in Libra
In Libra, Chiron is a soft spot around being chosen and kept, and a gift for making others feel met as equals.
16°04′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
0°15′
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.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his mind (Mercury in Aries) and his optimism (Jupiter in Libra) face each other across the wheel, and his discipline (Saturn in Cancer) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
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.
The Moon conjunction Mars exact at 0.0°
His feelings run hot and fast, and he protects the people he loves fiercely.
Venus sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.3°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
Jupiter square Saturn almost exact at 0.4°
Growth and caution keep checking each other: he moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.
Mars sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.
Jupiter trine North Node close at 1.8°
Hope helps him grow: faith in what is possible keeps him moving forward.
Mercury sextile North Node close at 2.0°
His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.

Mercury square Saturn wide at 3.4°

The Sun sextile Saturn wide at 3.7°
Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

An unusual path: his direction in life comes through sudden turns and fresh starts.
