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.
25°29′
Moon in Scorpio
The Vault. Deep water, kept private.
10°01′
Mercury in Scorpio
The Investigator. Hears what was left out.
8°06′

The Loyal Partner. Love built to last.
2°59′

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 Virgo
The direction his life grows in: Virgo, precise and helpful.
12°43′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
27°28′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
21°39′
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 feelings, his mind and his imagination (the Sun, the Moon, Mercury and Neptune) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.
Stellium

In his chart, his heart, his optimism and his discipline (Venus, Jupiter and Saturn) gather in Capricorn, 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.
Mercury sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.1°
A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.
The Sun square Uranus almost exact at 0.2°
He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.
The Moon conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
Feelings without edges: other people’s sorrow and joy reach him as if they are his own.
Venus conjunction Jupiter close at 1.3°
A generous heart: love and good company come to him easily, and he shares both.
Mercury conjunction Neptune close at 1.4°
A poet’s mind: he hears what goes unsaid, and his best ideas come from somewhere hard to explain.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.5°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
