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 Leo
The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.
15°35′
Moon in Leo
The Moon moved from Cancer into Leo at 8:16 a.m. that day, local time: in Cancer for a birth before then, in Leo for one after.
1°55′
Mercury in Cancer
The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.
28°12′
Venus in Cancer
The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.
4°59′
Mars in Leo
The Leader. Courage with an audience.

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.
3°19′
Chiron in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.
16°30′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
25°17′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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 sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.5°
Endurance: he can work through hard times, and what he builds survives pressure.
Saturn conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.8°
He takes dreams seriously and gives them structure, and his ideals have to prove themselves.
Uranus square Neptune close at 1.0°
The urge for change and the longing for ideals clash, and he lives with both.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.2°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Moon opposition North Node close at 1.4°
Home comforts and the way forward ask for different things, and growing means leaving some familiar things behind.
Jupiter trine Neptune close at 1.6°
Faith and imagination together: he believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Venus quincunx North Node close at 1.7°
He keeps adjusting what he wants from people to fit the life he is growing into.
Saturn square Uranus close at 1.8°
Tradition and rebellion fight in him: he wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.
Jupiter trine Saturn close at 2.4°
Hope and caution in balance: he dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.
Jupiter sextile Pluto close at 2.8°
Ambition with depth: he knows how to build influence, and he uses it to make big changes.
Mars opposition North Node close at 2.9°
Old fights and the way forward disagree, and he grows by choosing which battles matter.
The Moon conjunction Mercury wide at 3.7°
He thinks with his feelings: memory, mood and wit come together, and his words give away what he feels.
The Sun sextile Jupiter wide at 4.2°
His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
Mercury opposition North Node wide at 5.1°
Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and he learns new ways of thinking to move on.
The Sun sextile Neptune wide at 5.9°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Mercury square Saturn wide at 6.0°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Mercury square Neptune wide at 6.7°
Facts and dreams blur together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.
The Sun conjunction Pluto wide at 7.1°
Intensity at the centre: he wants the whole truth about everything, himself first, and he remakes himself more than once to reach it.
Mercury conjunction Uranus wide at 7.8°
He thinks in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.
The Sun conjunction Mars wide at 9.4°
Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

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.

Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
