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 Pisces, 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 Pisces

    The direction her life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.

    14°23′

  • Chiron in Taurus

    In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.

    26°17′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Taurus

    In Taurus, Lilith is an appetite for pleasure that sees no need to apologise.

    21°53′

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

PatternsStellium, Yod, T-square
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 drive, her optimism and her imagination (Mars, Jupiter and Neptune) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws her attention first.

Yod

Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.

In her chart, her identity (the Sun in Scorpio) and her optimism (Jupiter in Virgo) both point at her independence (Uranus in Aries), the part of her that keeps needing adjustment and gives her life its focus.

T-square

Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.

In her chart, her feelings (the Moon in Gemini) and her mind (Mercury in Sagittarius) face each other across the wheel, and her optimism (Jupiter in Virgo) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.

Aspects by strength22 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 trine Pluto almost exact at 0.4°

    A quiet strength: under pressure she grows more focused, and she knows how to start over.

  • Mercury sextile Venus almost exact at 0.6°

    A graceful mind: she speaks kindly and well, and she knows how to say a hard thing gently.

  • The Moon trine Venus almost exact at 0.8°

    She puts people at ease without trying: kindness and charm come from the same place.

  • Mercury square North Node close at 1.0°

    Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and she learns new ways of thinking to move on.

  • Mars quincunx Saturn close at 1.1°

    When to push and when to wait takes constant judging, and she learns timing the hard way.

  • Jupiter quincunx Uranus close at 1.1°

    Her hopes and her restlessness keep changing places, and she redraws her plans more than once.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • The Moon opposition Mercury close at 1.4°

    Her head and her feelings argue: she knows what she thinks before she knows what she feels, or the other way round.

  • Venus quincunx North Node close at 1.6°

    She keeps adjusting what she wants from people to fit the life she is growing into.

  • The Moon square Jupiter close at 2.3°

    Her feelings run large: she wants more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gives.

  • The Moon square North Node close at 2.4°

    Home comforts and the way forward ask for different things, and growing means leaving some familiar things behind.

  • The Sun quincunx Uranus close at 2.7°

    Her restlessness keeps testing her plans, so she changes course more than once to stay true to herself.

  • Uranus square Pluto wide at 3.2°

    Upheaval and the urge to break free run strong, and she pushes for change rather than waiting for it.

  • Mercury square Jupiter wide at 3.7°

    Big ideas and loose details: she thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from her.

  • The Sun sextile Jupiter wide at 3.9°

    Her confidence comes easily and spreads: she thinks big, and other people want to come along.

  • Venus opposition Uranus wide at 4.2°

    Love comes in sudden starts and stops: she falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.

  • Jupiter sextile Pluto wide at 4.3°

    Ambition with depth: she knows how to build influence, and she uses it to make big changes.

  • Neptune opposition North Node wide at 4.4°

    Dreams and the way forward clash, and growing means trading some illusions for clear sight.

  • Jupiter opposition North Node wide at 4.7°

    Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.

  • Mercury trine Uranus wide at 4.8°

    A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and she sees answers others miss.

  • Mercury square Neptune wide at 5.4°

    Facts and dreams blur together in her mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.

  • Saturn opposition Pluto wide at 6.3°

    Heavy demands and hard limits: she faces a great deal of pressure and comes out tougher for it.

  • The Sun square Mars wide at 7.8°

    She fights hard for what she wants, and her temper is part of her courage.
