The chart, fact by fact
Planets

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.

29°35′
Moon in Capricorn
The Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn at 2:47 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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
9°28′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
14°12′
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces
In Pisces, Lilith is a dreamer who wants no rescuing, with a private world all its own.
23°20′
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.
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 heart (Venus in Aquarius) and his independence (Uranus in Leo) face each other across the wheel, and his imagination (Neptune in Scorpio) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
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.
Venus opposition Uranus almost exact at 0.3°
Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.
Mercury sextile North Node almost exact at 0.6°
His way with words helps him find his direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.
Venus square North Node close at 1.4°
What feels comfortable in love and what helps him grow are different things, and he chooses between them more than once.
Uranus square North Node close at 1.7°
The way forward asks for steadiness, and the urge for change keeps breaking in.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.9°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury quincunx Uranus close at 2.2°
Ordinary logic and sudden insight need constant translating, and he spends time explaining how he gets there.

The Sun sextile Jupiter close at 2.4°

The Sun trine Pluto close at 2.7°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
Mars square Pluto wide at 3.2°
A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.
The Sun sextile Neptune wide at 4.6°
Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
Neptune conjunction North Node wide at 5.3°
A path lit by imagination: he follows a vision more than a plan.
Venus square Neptune wide at 6.6°
He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
Uranus square Neptune wide at 6.9°
The urge for change and the longing for ideals clash, and he lives with both.
Jupiter conjunction Neptune wide at 7.0°
A dreamer’s faith: he believes in something larger, and his compassion and his hopes go together.
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.
Standing alone: Saturn. It makes no major aspect, so his discipline works alone: strict in one part of life, and missing from others.
