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.
7°36′
Moon in Gemini
The Moon moved from Taurus into Gemini at 4:54 a.m. that day, local time: in Taurus for a birth before then, in Gemini for one after.

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 Aries
The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
2°00′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
29°53′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
24°56′
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.
Venus opposition Pluto almost exact at 0.3°
Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.
The Moon trine Uranus almost exact at 0.3°
His feelings like freedom: he needs space in close ties and gives it back just as easily.
The Sun trine Jupiter close at 1.6°
His confidence comes easily and spreads: he thinks big, and other people want to come along.
Uranus opposition North Node close at 1.8°
The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.
Jupiter conjunction Uranus close at 2.1°
An inventive optimism: he believes in the new, and he takes leaps others would not.
The Moon trine Jupiter close at 2.5°
Good-hearted and generous: he feels looked after by life, and he passes that on.

Jupiter opposition North Node wide at 4.0°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.

Mercury trine Jupiter wide at 5.3°
A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learns easily, tells a good story and sees the big picture.
The Sun sextile North Node wide at 5.6°

He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
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.
Elements
Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
Standing alone: Saturn. It makes no major aspect, so his discipline works alone: strict in one part of life, and missing from others.
