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 Leo
The Bright One. Warm, proud and generous.

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.
15°56′
Chiron in Virgo
In Virgo, Chiron is the sense that no effort is ever quite enough, and a gift for patient, practical help.
2°53′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
9°29′
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 optimism and his intensity (the Sun, Jupiter and Pluto) gather in Leo, 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 Sun sextile Saturn almost exact at 0.3°
Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.
The Moon opposition Venus almost exact at 0.6°
What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.
Uranus sextile Pluto close at 1.2°
He can help change things at the root, and upheaval suits him.
The Moon opposition Mercury close at 1.2°
His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.
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.
Jupiter sextile Uranus close at 2.0°
Sudden openings: he spots new chances early and jumps at them.

Generosity is part of his path: teaching, travel and big ideas move him forward.
Mercury square Saturn wide at 5.5°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Venus trine Mars wide at 5.9°
Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.
Saturn square Neptune wide at 6.2°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: his discipline and his imagination ask different things of him.
The Sun conjunction North Node wide at 7.9°
His identity and his direction in life line up: the more fully he becomes himself, the further he goes.
