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 Dreamer. Gentle, dreamy and deep.
27°37′
Moon in Leo
The Moon moved from Leo into Virgo at 1:33 p.m. that day, local time: in Leo for a birth before then, in Virgo for one after.
29°14′
Mercury in Pisces
The Poet. Knowing without explaining.
4°38′
Venus in Aries
The Chaser. Love at first sight.
9°52′
Mars in Pisces
The Gentle Warrior. Strength that flows round.

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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
17°36′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
7°43′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
15°34′
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 identity, his mind and his drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Pisces, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his heart (Venus in Aries) and his discipline (Saturn in Aquarius) both point at his intensity (Pluto in Virgo), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
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.
Saturn quincunx Pluto almost exact at 0.1°
He keeps adjusting between control and acceptance, and learns where each belongs.
The Sun quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.3°
His restlessness keeps testing his plans, so he changes course more than once to stay true to himself.
Mercury conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.4°
He thinks fast and speaks faster: his mind likes a contest, and his words have an edge.
The Moon opposition Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°
His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.
Jupiter opposition Uranus close at 1.1°
Restless hope: he wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.
Venus quincunx Pluto close at 1.5°
Affection and the need for control keep getting in each other’s way, and trust takes him time.

Loyal in love: he chooses carefully, and what he builds with people lasts.
The Moon conjunction Uranus close at 1.9°

Mercury opposition Pluto wide at 3.8°

Neptune square North Node wide at 4.4°
Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 4.8°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Saturn square Neptune wide at 4.9°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.

He loves ideas, the bigger the better, and he can talk anyone into hoping.
Mars conjunction Jupiter wide at 6.6°
Enthusiasm at full speed: he charges at life with confidence, and setbacks slow him only briefly.
