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 Scorpio
The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.
14°53′
Moon in Pisces
The Moon moved from Aquarius into Pisces at 11:33 a.m. that day, local time: in Aquarius for a birth before then, in Pisces for one after.
0°16′
Mercury in Scorpio
The Investigator. Hears what was left out.
21°43′

The Devotee. All or nothing.

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.
29°42′
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.
6°34′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
7°14′
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 heart and his optimism (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Jupiter) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life drew 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.
The Moon square Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
His feelings and his imagination pulled in different directions: he lived between what was real and what he longed for.
Mars conjunction Uranus almost exact at 0.2°
Electric: he acted on impulse, loved a risk and refused to be told what to do.
Venus opposition Saturn almost exact at 0.3°
Love felt like something to be earned, and he held back until he was sure of it.
Neptune square North Node almost exact at 0.3°
Dreams and the way forward clashed, and growing meant trading some illusions for clear sight.
The Moon conjunction North Node almost exact at 0.6°
His instincts led the way: following his feelings was how he found his direction.
Pluto quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.8°
He kept giving up a little control to keep growing.
