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 Sagittarius, 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 Sagittarius

    The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.

    2°23′

  • Chiron in Gemini

    In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.

    25°36′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius

    In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.

    25°20′

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

PatternsStellium
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 identity, his mind, his heart and his optimism (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Jupiter) gather in Aquarius, and that part of life drew his attention first.

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.

  • The Moon opposition Mercury almost exact at 0.1°

    His head and his feelings argued: he knew what he thought before he knew what he felt, or the other way round.

  • Saturn trine North Node almost exact at 0.4°

    Discipline helped him grow: patience and hard work kept him on course.

  • Venus quincunx Pluto close at 2.1°

    Affection and the need for control kept getting in each other’s way, and trust took him time.

  • The Sun conjunction Venus close at 2.3°

    Charm came naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things were close to his core.

  • Mars sextile Jupiter close at 2.5°

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

  • Mercury square Uranus close at 2.5°

    His mind ran ahead of the conversation: he said the unexpected thing, and not everyone was ready to hear it.
