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 Libra
The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.
16°49′
Moon in Libra
The Moon moved from Virgo into Libra at 3:29 a.m. that day, local time: in Virgo for a birth before then, in Libra for one after.
5°08′
Mercury in Libra
The Mediator. Both sides of the question.
1°43′
Venus in Libra
The Sweetheart. Grace, romance and balance.

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.
28°22′
Chiron in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Chiron is a restless question about what it all means, and a gift for lending others a wider view.
17°41′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
0°15′
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.
The Sun conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.3°
She takes in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gives them back as something new.
Mars quincunx Uranus close at 1.0°
Effort and restlessness keep catching each other off guard, and her plans change at short notice.
Venus square Uranus close at 1.4°
Love comes in sudden starts and stops: she falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.
Jupiter quincunx Saturn close at 2.2°
When to expand and when to hold back takes constant rethinking.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.4°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus sextile Mars close at 2.4°
Charm and desire work together: she knows what she wants in love and how to win it.

The Sun sextile Pluto close at 2.6°
A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.
Saturn opposition North Node close at 2.7°
Duty and growth compete: what she owes others and where she needs to go call for hard choices.
The Moon conjunction Venus close at 2.9°
Tenderness through and through: she needs beauty and affection the way others need air.
Mercury opposition North Node wide at 3.4°
Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and she learns new ways of thinking to move on.
The Moon conjunction Mercury wide at 3.4°
She thinks with her feelings: memory, mood and wit come together, and her words give away what she feels.
Mercury conjunction Saturn wide at 6.0°
Serious thoughts: she says less than she knows, and what she says holds up.
The Sun sextile Mars wide at 6.3°
Her purpose and her drive work together: once she decides on something, she moves on it fast.
Mercury conjunction Venus wide at 6.3°
Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.
The Sun square Uranus wide at 7.3°
She needs room to be herself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.
The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 8.8°
Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to her core.
