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 Aries

    The Pioneer. First in, first to try.

    19°23′

  • Moon in Cancer

    The Moon moved from Cancer into Leo at 8:24 p.m. that day, local time: in Cancer for a birth before then, in Leo for one after.

    25°03′

  • Mercury in Ariesretrograde

    The Spark. First to speak.

    17°48′

  • Venus in Aries

    The Chaser. Love at first sight.

    18°41′

  • Mars in Virgoretrograde

    The Craftsperson. The craftsman’s drive.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Gemini, 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 Gemini

    The direction her life grows in: Gemini, curious and quick-witted.

    15°27′

  • Chiron in Pisces

    In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.

    20°10′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn

    In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.

    20°05′

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

PatternsStellium, Stellium
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 her chart, her identity, her mind and her heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Stellium

Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.

In her chart, her drive, her independence and her intensity (Mars, Uranus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Aspects by strength21 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 Sun quincunx Neptune exact at 0.0°

    She keeps redrawing the line between the life she has and the life she imagines.

  • The Sun conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.7°

    Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to her core.

  • Venus quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.7°

    What she wants from love and what love gives her keep needing adjustment, and she learns to see people as they are.

  • Mercury conjunction Venus almost exact at 0.9°

    Words with charm in them: she has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to her.

  • Saturn opposition Uranus close at 1.1°

    Tradition and rebellion fight in her: she wants security and freedom, and can rarely have both at once.

  • Pluto square North Node close at 1.3°

    Old attachments hold her back from the way forward, and she grows by letting some things go.

    Duty and growth compete: what she owes others and where she needs to go call for hard choices.

    Drive with the brakes on: she wants to move, something holds her back, and the friction makes her tough.

    Her hopes run ahead of what is real, and she learns to check a beautiful idea against the facts.

Chart signatureMost in earth signs
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

Fire · instinct and enthusiasm3
Earth · the practical and the solid4
Air · ideas and people0
Water · feeling and intuition3

Modes

Cardinal · starting things4
Fixed · holding steady2
Mutable · adapting4

The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.

No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
