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 Libra, 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 Libra

    The direction his life grows in: Libra, graceful and fair.

    29°16′

  • Chiron in Cancer

    In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.

    19°50′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Pisces

    In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.

    3°16′

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

PatternsStellium, 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 his chart, his feelings, his mind and his heart (the Moon, Mercury and Venus) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.

T-square

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

In his chart, his drive (Mars in Aquarius) and his intensity (Pluto in Leo) face each other across the wheel, and his mind (Mercury in Scorpio) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

Aspects by strength20 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 quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.7°

    His restlessness keeps testing his plans, so he changes course more than once to stay true to himself.

  • Venus quincunx Jupiter almost exact at 0.8°

    His taste and his appetite for more need adjusting: he keeps learning what is enough.

  • Saturn opposition North Node almost exact at 0.9°

    Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.

  • Jupiter trine Pluto close at 1.2°

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

  • Venus conjunction North Node close at 1.5°

    Following his heart is following his path: the people and pleasures he loves lead him forward.

  • Venus square Pluto close at 2.1°

    Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.

  • Jupiter quincunx North Node close at 2.3°

    Some hopes have to be let go to fit the way forward, and he chooses which ones.

  • Venus opposition Saturn close at 2.4°

    Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

  • Mercury square Pluto close at 2.5°

    His words have force: he speaks to persuade, and he keeps his own counsel until the right moment.

  • Uranus trine Neptune close at 3.0°

    Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.

  • Pluto square North Node wide at 3.5°

    Old attachments hold him back from the way forward, and he grows by letting some things go.

  • Mercury square Mars wide at 3.8°

    Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argues well, sometimes too well, and a debate is a kind of sport to him.

  • Saturn square Pluto wide at 4.4°

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

  • Mercury conjunction Venus wide at 4.6°

    Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

  • Mercury conjunction North Node wide at 6.1°

    Ideas and talk set his course: he finds his direction by learning and talking things through.

  • Mars opposition Pluto wide at 6.3°

    A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.

  • Mercury opposition Saturn wide at 7.0°

    He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.

  • Jupiter opposition Neptune wide at 7.5°

    His hopes run ahead of what is real, and he learns to check a beautiful idea against the facts.

  • The Sun opposition Saturn wide at 8.0°

    Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.

  • The Sun conjunction North Node wide at 8.8°

    His identity and his direction in life line up: the more fully he becomes himself, the further he goes.
