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 Virgo
The Fixer. Precise, useful and kind.
10°47′
Moon in Virgo
The Moon moved from Virgo into Libra at 1:55 p.m. that day, local time: in Virgo for a birth before then, in Libra for one after.
28°49′
Mercury in Virgo
The Analyst. The editor’s eye.
9°47′
Venus in Cancer
The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.
24°55′
Mars in Virgo
The Craftsperson. The craftsman’s drive.

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 Libra
The direction her life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.
11°14′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
27°52′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
9°21′
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 her chart, her optimism, her discipline and her independence (Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life drew her 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.
Venus sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
A romantic with an artist’s eye: she saw the beauty in people and made it visible to others.
Mercury conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.4°
She thought fast and spoke faster: her mind liked a contest, and her words had an edge.
Jupiter conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.9°
Optimism with a plan: her hopes were practical, and she built them slowly into something real.
The Sun conjunction Mercury close at 1.0°
Her mind and her identity were close together: she spoke as she thought, and her ideas were part of who she was.
Venus sextile Uranus close at 1.2°
She loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all her own.
The Sun conjunction Mars close at 1.4°
Purpose and drive in one place: she was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

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