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 Libra
The Diplomat. Grace, fairness and balance.
24°13′
Moon in Leo
The Moon moved from Leo into Virgo at 9:59 p.m. that day, local time: in Leo for a birth before then, in Virgo for one after.
24°36′
Mercury in Scorpio
The Investigator. Hears what was left out.
8°18′
Venus in Virgo
The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.

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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
25°16′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
3°50′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
29°47′
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.
Mercury sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.2°
A patient, exact mind: he chose every word, and his thinking got sharper with practice.
Saturn sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.3°
Endurance: he could work through hard times, and what he built survived pressure.
The Sun sextile the Moon almost exact at 0.4°
His purpose and his feelings were on the same side: the life he chose and the comfort he needed went together.
Mercury trine Pluto almost exact at 0.5°
A probing mind: he got to the bottom of things, and his words had power when he chose to use them.
The Moon square North Node almost exact at 0.7°
Home comforts and the way forward asked for different things, and growing meant leaving some familiar things behind.
Mars sextile Pluto close at 2.6°
Stamina and willpower: he kept going long after others stopped, and he did his best work under pressure.

The Moon opposition Uranus wide at 3.3°

A dreamer’s faith: he believed in something larger, and his compassion and his hopes went together.
The Sun trine Uranus wide at 3.7°
Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.
Venus conjunction Saturn wide at 6.7°
Serious about love: he gave affection slowly, and once given, it stayed given.
Mars opposition Uranus wide at 7.2°
Restless and quick to rebel: he pushed against limits, and sudden decisions came with the territory.
