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 Taurus
The Gardener. Steady, sensual and sure.
3°49′
Moon in Virgo
The Moon moved from Leo into Virgo at 2:20 a.m. that day, local time: in Leo for a birth before then, in Virgo for one after.
4°57′
Mercury in Aries
The Spark. First to speak.
15°09′
Venus in Pisces
The Tender Heart. Love without limits.
17°45′

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 Aquarius
The direction her life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
16°07′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
1°55′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
20°34′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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.
Jupiter trine North Node almost exact at 0.2°
Hope helps her grow: faith in what is possible keeps her moving forward.
Mercury sextile North Node close at 1.0°
Her way with words helps her find her direction, and the right ideas come at the right time.
The Sun trine the Moon close at 1.1°
Her purpose and her feelings are on the same side: the life she chooses and the comfort she needs go together.
Saturn sextile Uranus close at 1.2°
Old and new sit well together: she can change things without throwing out what works.
Mercury opposition Jupiter close at 1.2°
Big ideas and loose details: she thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from her.
Venus quincunx Jupiter close at 1.4°
Her taste and her appetite for more need adjusting: she keeps learning what is enough.

The Sun conjunction Mars close at 2.3°
Purpose and drive in one place: she is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
Mars conjunction Uranus wide at 3.8°
Electric: she acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.
Venus trine Pluto wide at 4.8°
She loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds she forms change both people.
Uranus square Pluto wide at 5.2°
Upheaval and the urge to break free run strong, and she pushes for change rather than waiting for it.
The Sun trine Neptune wide at 6.0°
Imagination and identity work together: she can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.
The Sun conjunction Uranus wide at 6.1°
Born original: her identity and her need for freedom are the same thing, and she surprises people, herself included.
Jupiter square Pluto wide at 6.3°
She wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes her life.
