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 Virgo
The Fixer. Precise, useful and kind.
1°29′
Moon in Aquarius
The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 4:38 a.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.
3°49′

19°10′

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 Aries
The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
5°49′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
23°38′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
2°05′
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 mind and his imagination (the Sun, Mercury and Neptune) gather in Virgo, and that part of life drew 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 Libra) and his independence (Uranus in Aries) face each other across the wheel, and his discipline (Saturn in Capricorn) took the strain: the part of him that worked hardest.
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 discipline (Saturn in Capricorn) and his intensity (Pluto in Cancer) face each other across the wheel, and his drive (Mars in Libra) took the strain: the part of him that worked hardest.
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 Libra) and his independence (Uranus in Aries) face each other across the wheel, and his intensity (Pluto in Cancer) took the strain: the part of him that worked hardest.
Grand cross
Four planets in a square, two pairs pulling against each other: strain on every side, and great staying power.
In his chart, his drive, his discipline, his independence and his intensity (Mars in Libra, Saturn in Capricorn, Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Cancer) make the cross, and he learned to hold all four at once.
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 quincunx Uranus almost exact at 0.1°
Ordinary logic and sudden insight needed constant translating, and he spent time explaining how he got there.
Neptune quincunx North Node almost exact at 0.4°
He grew by testing his ideals against real life, again and again.
Saturn square Uranus close at 1.8°
Tradition and rebellion fought in him: he wanted security and freedom, and could rarely have both at once.
Mercury trine Saturn close at 1.9°
A patient, exact mind: he chose every word, and his thinking got sharper with practice.
Mars square Saturn close at 2.1°
Drive with the brakes on: he wanted to move, something held him back, and the friction made him tough.
Mercury sextile Pluto close at 2.3°
A probing mind: he got to the bottom of things, and his words had power when he chose to use them.
