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 Capricorn
The Sun moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 8:16 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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
0°03′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
6°45′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
16°40′
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 his chart, his feelings, his heart and his imagination (the Moon, Venus and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his 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.
The Moon square Saturn almost exact at 0.1°
Feelings come second to duty: he holds himself to a high standard, even in private.
The Sun quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.1°
The way forward asks him to bend habits that feel like part of who he is.
Mercury sextile Neptune almost exact at 0.2°
He thinks in pictures and music: his words carry a mood, and his imagination gives his ideas colour.
The Moon trine Jupiter close at 1.4°
Good-hearted and generous: he feels looked after by life, and he passes that on.
Jupiter opposition Uranus close at 2.2°
Restless hope: he wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.7°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mercury trine Pluto close at 2.9°
A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.
Mercury sextile Venus wide at 3.6°
A graceful mind: he speaks kindly and well, and he knows how to say a hard thing gently.
Venus conjunction Neptune wide at 3.8°
Romance without limits: he falls for ideals as much as people, and his taste runs to the dreamy and the beautiful.
Jupiter opposition Pluto wide at 4.7°
He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.
The Sun trine Uranus wide at 5.1°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.
The Sun trine Mars wide at 5.5°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
Saturn square Neptune wide at 5.9°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.
Venus square Mars wide at 6.1°
In love he wants tenderness and a chase at once, and his relationships are rarely calm.
Uranus conjunction Pluto wide at 6.9°
Born into a time of upheaval: he wants radical change, and wants it at once.
