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 Aquarius
The Free Thinker. Original, free and humane.
28°21′
Moon in Gemini
The Moon moved from Taurus into Gemini at 4:02 a.m. that day, local time: in Taurus for a birth before then, in Gemini for one after.
4°40′
Mercury in Aquariusretrograde
The Inventor. The original thinker.
9°09′

The Chaser. Love at first sight.

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 Taurus
The direction her life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
25°35′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
5°58′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
19°35′
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.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In her chart, her optimism, her discipline and her imagination (Jupiter in Taurus, Saturn in Sagittarius and Neptune in Virgo) make the triangle, so these came to her naturally.
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 sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.1°
Purpose and patience worked as a team: she built slowly and got better with every year.
Saturn trine Neptune close at 1.6°
Practical dreams: she gave ideals a shape and worked to make them real.
The Sun opposition Neptune close at 1.7°
The self she knew and the image others saw drifted apart at times, and she worked to keep hold of the real one.
Venus square Pluto close at 1.8°
Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where she stood.
The Sun square North Node close at 2.8°
Being herself and growing asked for different things, and her biggest steps forward came when she stretched past her habits.
Saturn quincunx North Node close at 2.9°
Responsibility and growth needed steady balancing, and she learned which duties to keep.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mercury sextile Uranus wide at 3.9°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and she saw answers others missed.
Mercury square Jupiter wide at 4.2°
Big ideas and loose details: she thought on a large scale, and the small print was where things got away from her.
Neptune square North Node wide at 4.5°
Dreams and the way forward clashed, and growing meant trading some illusions for clear sight.
The Sun trine Mars wide at 4.9°
Her purpose and her drive worked together: once she decided on something, she moved on it fast.
Jupiter trine Neptune wide at 4.9°
Faith and imagination together: she believed in people and ideals, and that belief was catching.
Mars opposition Saturn wide at 4.9°
Drive with the brakes on: she wanted to move, something held her back, and the friction made her tough.
Jupiter trine Saturn wide at 6.5°
Hope and caution in balance: she dreamed big and planned carefully, and both helped.
Saturn square Uranus wide at 6.8°
Tradition and rebellion fought in her: she wanted security and freedom, and could rarely have both at once.
