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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Taurus, 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 Taurus

    The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.

    9°19′

  • Chiron in Gemini

    In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.

    14°25′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Taurus

    In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.

    14°37′

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

PatternsStellium, Stellium
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 her chart, her feelings, her heart and her drive (the Moon, Venus and Mars) gather in Virgo, and that part of life drew her attention first.

Stellium

Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.

In her chart, her mind, her discipline and her intensity (Mercury, Saturn and Pluto) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life drew her attention first.

Aspects by strength12 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.

  • Mercury sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.3°

    She thought in pictures and music: her words carried a mood, and her imagination gave her ideas colour.

  • The Moon square Uranus close at 1.5°

    Her moods changed without warning, and she wanted closeness and room to breathe at the same time.

  • Venus sextile Saturn close at 1.9°

    Loyal in love: she chose carefully, and what she built with people lasted.

  • Jupiter square North Node close at 2.1°

    Easy hopes and the harder way forward went different ways, and real growth came from the harder one.

  • Mercury conjunction Pluto close at 2.6°

    She thought like a detective: nothing was taken at face value, and she remembered everything.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.9°

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

  • Jupiter square Pluto wide at 3.2°

    She wanted more power than came easily, and the struggle for it shaped her life.

  • The Sun sextile Uranus wide at 3.3°

    Independence came easily: she did things her own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.

  • Venus conjunction Mars wide at 4.0°

    Magnetic: affection and desire came together in her, and people noticed.

  • Mars square Uranus wide at 5.0°

    Restless and quick to rebel: she pushed against limits, and sudden decisions came with the territory.

  • Pluto opposition North Node wide at 5.3°

    Old attachments held her back from the way forward, and she grew by letting some things go.

  • Mercury square Jupiter wide at 5.9°

    Big ideas and loose details: she thought on a large scale, and the small print was where things got away from her.
