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 Scorpio
The Detective. Intense, private and loyal.
12°02′
Moon in Virgo
The Moon moved from Virgo into Libra at 1:43 p.m. that day, local time: in Virgo for a birth before then, in Libra for one after.
29°08′
Mercury in Libra
The Mediator. Both sides of the question.
23°41′
Venus in Libra
The Sweetheart. Grace, romance and balance.
21°51′
Mars in Scorpio
The Strategist. Will under a still surface.
23°27′

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.
24°04′
Chiron in Pisces
In Pisces, Chiron is a tenderness that feels everything a little too much, and a gift for quiet compassion.
1°55′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
0°43′
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 identity, his drive and his imagination (the Sun, Mars 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.
Jupiter quincunx Uranus exact at 0.0°
His hopes and his restlessness keep changing places, and he redraws his plans more than once.
Saturn quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.3°
Responsibility and growth need steady balancing, and he learns which duties to keep.
Mercury sextile North Node almost exact at 0.4°
His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.
Mars square North Node almost exact at 0.6°
Old fights and the way forward disagree, and he grows by choosing which battles matter.
Mercury square Saturn almost exact at 0.7°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
The Moon trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.9°
Good-hearted and generous: he feels looked after by life, and he passes that on.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Sun conjunction Neptune close at 1.0°
He takes in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gives them back as something new.
Mars sextile Saturn close at 1.0°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury conjunction Venus close at 1.8°
Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.
Venus sextile North Node close at 2.2°
Love and friendship move him forward: the people he cares for help him find his way.
The Sun sextile Pluto close at 2.3°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
Venus square Saturn close at 2.5°
Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.
Jupiter conjunction Saturn wide at 5.7°
Optimism with a plan: his hopes are practical, and he builds them slowly into something real.
Uranus conjunction North Node wide at 6.0°
An unusual path: his direction in life comes through sudden turns and fresh starts.
Mercury square Jupiter wide at 6.4°
Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.
Mars square Uranus wide at 6.7°
Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.
Chart signature
What’s this?Close
The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.
Elements
Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No fire at all, so the bold first move comes by choice rather than by instinct.
