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 Libra, 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 Libra

    The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.

    12°05′

  • Chiron in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.

    27°36′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Taurus

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

    20°40′

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

Aspects by strength16 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.

  • Uranus sextile North Node almost exact at 0.6°

    Change helps him forward: he grows by trying the new.

  • The Sun square Pluto close at 1.1°

    Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.

  • The Sun opposition the Moon close at 1.1°

    The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.

  • Saturn sextile Neptune close at 1.1°

    Practical dreams: he gives ideals a shape and works to make them real.

  • Venus square North Node close at 1.2°

    What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.

  • Mars trine Jupiter close at 2.4°

    Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.2°

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

  • Mercury sextile Venus wide at 3.9°

    A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.

  • The Sun opposition Jupiter wide at 4.0°

    He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

  • The Sun quincunx Neptune wide at 4.3°

    He keeps redrawing the line between the life he has and the life he imagines.

  • Saturn trine Pluto wide at 4.4°

    Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.

  • Mercury square Uranus wide at 4.5°

    His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.

  • Jupiter square Pluto wide at 5.0°

    He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.

  • Saturn square North Node wide at 6.0°

    Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.

  • The Sun sextile Mars wide at 6.3°

    His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

  • Venus opposition Saturn wide at 7.2°

    Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.
