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 Taurus
The Gardener. Steady, sensual and sure.
17°38′
Moon in Gemini
The Moon moved from Gemini into Cancer at 10:17 p.m. that day, local time: in Gemini for a birth before then, in Cancer for one after.
24°37′
Mercury in Taurusretrograde
The Careful Thinker. Slow to decide, sure once decided.
18°43′

The Charmer. Love through conversation.

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 Pisces
The direction her life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
9°10′
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.
8°38′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
16°57′
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 her chart, her identity, her mind and her discipline (the Sun, Mercury and Saturn) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws her 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 Pluto almost exact at 0.2°
She loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes her a long time.
Venus conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.4°
Magnetic: affection and desire come together in her, and people notice.
The Sun conjunction Mercury close at 1.1°
Her mind and her identity are close together: she speaks as she thinks, and her ideas are part of who she is.
Saturn sextile North Node wide at 3.7°
Discipline helps her grow: patience and hard work keep her on course.
Venus square North Node wide at 4.0°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps her grow are different things, and she chooses between them more than once.
Mars square North Node wide at 4.4°
Old fights and the way forward disagree, and she grows by choosing which battles matter.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Sun conjunction Saturn wide at 4.8°
Serious from early on: purpose and duty are one thing to her, and she treats her own life as work to be done well.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 5.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury conjunction Saturn wide at 5.9°
Serious thoughts: she says less than she knows, and what she says holds up.
Mercury trine Pluto wide at 6.2°
A probing mind: she gets to the bottom of things, and her words have power when she chooses to use them.
The Sun trine Pluto wide at 7.2°
A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.
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.
