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 Gemini
The Messenger. Curious and many-sided.
2°21′
Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon moved from Scorpio into Sagittarius at 9:57 a.m. that day, local time: in Scorpio for a birth before then, in Sagittarius for one after.
1°18′
Mercury in Gemini
The Quick Wit. The messenger at home.
3°15′
Venus in Cancer
The Nurturer. Love that makes a home.
2°40′
Mars in Capricorn
The Achiever. The disciplined climb.

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.
29°41′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
14°04′
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini
In Gemini, Lilith is the quick tongue that says out loud what the room only thinks.
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.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his imagination (Neptune in Capricorn) and his intensity (Pluto in Scorpio) both point at his identity (the Sun in Gemini), the part of him that keeps needing adjustment and gives his life its focus.
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.
Neptune sextile Pluto exact at 0.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
The Sun conjunction Mercury almost exact at 0.9°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
The Sun opposition the Moon close at 1.0°
The self he shows the world and the self he comes home to want different things, and he makes room for both.
The Moon opposition Mercury close at 1.9°
His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.
Jupiter square Uranus close at 2.0°
Restless hope: he wants more freedom than any situation gives, and big changes come suddenly.
Mars sextile Jupiter close at 2.5°
Big drive and big confidence: he goes after large goals, and his enthusiasm carries others along.

Venus trine Pluto close at 2.6°

Venus opposition Neptune close at 2.6°
He loves the dream of a person, and the real one has to compete with it.
The Sun quincunx Pluto close at 2.9°

The Sun quincunx Neptune close at 2.9°
He keeps redrawing the line between the life he has and the life he imagines.
Venus sextile North Node close at 3.0°
Love and friendship move him forward: the people he cares for help him find his way.
Mercury opposition Saturn wide at 3.5°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
The Sun opposition Saturn wide at 4.4°
Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.
Pluto opposition North Node wide at 5.5°
Old attachments hold him back from the way forward, and he grows by letting some things go.
Neptune trine North Node wide at 5.6°
Imagination helps him forward, through art, ideals and care for others.
