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 Virgo
The Fixer. Precise, useful and kind.
18°42′
Moon in Pisces
The Moon moved from Pisces into Aries at 6:50 p.m. that day, local time: in Pisces for a birth before then, in Aries for one after.
26°28′
Mercury in Virgo
The Analyst. The editor’s eye.
4°57′
Venus in Libra
The Sweetheart. Grace, romance and balance.
27°28′
Mars in Scorpio
The Strategist. Will under a still surface.

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.
8°05′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
20°18′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
7°23′
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, his independence and his intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first.
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.
Uranus conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.7°
Born into a time of upheaval: he wants radical change, and wants it at once.
The Sun sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.9°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Mars trine Saturn close at 1.0°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
Mars sextile Uranus close at 1.0°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.5°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus trine Jupiter close at 1.6°
Affection comes to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism help each other.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mars sextile Pluto close at 1.8°
Stamina and willpower: he keeps going long after others stop, and he does his best work under pressure.
Saturn opposition Uranus close at 2.0°
Tradition and rebellion fight in him: he wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.
Uranus sextile Neptune close at 2.3°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
The Sun conjunction Pluto close at 2.5°
Intensity at the centre: he wants the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remakes himself more than once to reach it.
The Moon square Jupiter close at 2.5°
His feelings run large: he wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.
Saturn opposition Pluto close at 2.8°
Heavy demands and hard limits: he faces a great deal of pressure and comes out tougher for it.
Mercury square North Node wide at 3.1°
Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and he learns new ways of thinking to move on.
The Sun conjunction Uranus wide at 3.2°
Born original: his identity and his need for freedom are the same thing, and he surprises people, himself included.
Mars conjunction Neptune wide at 3.3°
Action guided by imagination: he moves on instinct and feeling, and he gives his all to a vision.
The Sun sextile Mars wide at 4.3°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
Saturn trine Neptune wide at 4.3°
Practical dreams: he gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.
The Sun opposition Saturn wide at 5.2°
Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.
Saturn square North Node wide at 5.3°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
Chart signature
What’s this?Close
The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.
Elements
Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No fire at all, so the bold first move comes by choice rather than by instinct.
