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.
13°33′
Moon in Capricorn
The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 8:40 p.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.
24°53′
Mercury in Virgo
The Analyst. The editor’s eye.
26°00′
Venus in Virgo
The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.
6°19′
Mars in Gemini
The Multitasker. Quick with the comeback.

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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
14°06′
Chiron in Virgo
In Virgo, Chiron is the sense that no effort is ever quite enough, and a gift for patient, practical help.
9°45′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
15°08′
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 drive, his discipline and his independence (Mars, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws 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.
Uranus sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.1°
He can help change things at the root, and upheaval suits him.
The Sun sextile North Node almost exact at 0.6°
The direction his life takes suits him: being himself and growing go hand in hand.
Mercury square Saturn almost exact at 0.6°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
The Moon trine Mercury close at 1.1°
Feeling and thought speak the same language: he can put a mood into words, and his words carry feeling.
Mars sextile Jupiter close at 1.2°
Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.
Venus square Uranus close at 2.3°
Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Sun trine Uranus wide at 4.9°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
The Sun sextile Pluto wide at 5.0°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
Pluto conjunction North Node wide at 5.6°
A path of transformation: his direction in life asks him to change himself completely, more than once.
Saturn square Neptune wide at 5.6°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.
The Sun trine Mars wide at 5.9°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
Mercury conjunction Neptune wide at 6.2°
A poet’s mind: he hears what goes unsaid, and his best ideas come from somewhere hard to explain.
Uranus trine Neptune wide at 6.4°
Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Jupiter conjunction North Node wide at 6.5°
Generosity is part of his path: teaching, travel and big ideas move him forward.
Mercury square Mars wide at 6.6°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.
Mars conjunction Saturn wide at 7.2°
Controlled force: he works with patience and grit, and he finishes what he starts.
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.

Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
