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 Scorpio
The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.

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 Aquarius
The direction his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
7°33′
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.
9°45′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
19°25′
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 mind, his heart, his optimism and his imagination (Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Sagittarius, and that part of life draws his attention first.
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 discipline (Saturn in Gemini) and his imagination (Neptune in Sagittarius) face each other across the wheel, and his drive (Mars in Pisces) 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.
Mercury conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.3°
Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
Saturn opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.7°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.1°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Saturn trine Pluto close at 1.9°
Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.
The Sun sextile Pluto close at 2.7°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
Jupiter sextile Uranus wide at 3.3°
Sudden openings: he spots new chances early and jumps at them.

The Sun conjunction Neptune wide at 3.9°

The Sun opposition Saturn wide at 4.6°
Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.

He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Neptune sextile North Node wide at 4.9°
Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
Mars square Saturn wide at 5.1°
Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.
Mars square Neptune wide at 5.8°
Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.
Pluto trine North Node wide at 6.0°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
Mercury conjunction Jupiter wide at 7.2°
He loves ideas, the bigger the better, and he can talk anyone into hoping.
