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 Virgo
The Fixer. Precise, useful and kind.

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.
24°57′
Chiron in Taurus
In Taurus, Chiron is a tender place around worth and having enough, and a gift for helping others feel secure.
18°55′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
21°28′
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 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 heart (Venus in Libra) and his independence (Uranus in Aries) face each other across the wheel, and his optimism (Jupiter in Cancer) took the strain: the part of him that worked hardest.

In his chart, his heart (Venus 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.
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 square Mars almost exact at 0.7°
Sharp words and a sharp mind: he argued well, sometimes too well, and a debate was a kind of sport to him.
The Sun conjunction Neptune close at 1.7°
He took in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gave them back as something new.
Venus opposition Uranus close at 1.9°
Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.
Saturn trine Neptune close at 2.2°
Practical dreams: he gave ideals a shape and worked to make them real.
Jupiter square Uranus close at 2.2°
Restless hope: he wanted more freedom than any situation gave, and big changes came suddenly.
Mars sextile North Node wide at 3.1°
Courage moved him forward, and each bold step took him further along his path.

The Sun trine Saturn wide at 3.9°

Venus square Jupiter wide at 4.1°
He loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.
Pluto square North Node wide at 4.7°
Old attachments held him back from the way forward, and he grew by letting some things go.
Uranus square Pluto wide at 5.3°

The direction his life took suited him: being himself and growing went hand in hand.
Jupiter opposition Saturn wide at 7.2°
Growth and caution kept checking each other: he moved forward in bursts, then paused to consolidate.
Mars opposition Saturn wide at 7.4°
Drive with the brakes on: he wanted to move, something held him back, and the friction made him tough.

Large ambitions and the will to see them through: he worked on a grand scale.
