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 Pisces
The Dreamer. Gentle, dreamy and deep.
5°34′
Moon in Capricorn
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 3:29 a.m. that day, local time: in Sagittarius for a birth before then, in Capricorn 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 Sagittarius
The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.
1°17′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
25°26′
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius
In Sagittarius, Lilith is a free mind that keeps only the beliefs it chose.
26°35′
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.
The Moon square Saturn almost exact at 0.2°
Feelings come second to duty: he holds himself to a high standard, even in private.
Venus sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.3°
He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.
The Sun sextile the Moon close at 1.4°
His purpose and his feelings are on the same side: the life he chooses and the comfort he needs go together.
Mars quincunx Neptune close at 1.4°
His drive and his imagination speak different languages: he goes after something before he can say what it is.
Saturn trine North Node close at 2.7°
Discipline helps him grow: patience and hard work keep him on course.
Pluto trine North Node close at 3.0°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
