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.
19°31′
Moon in Libra
The Moon moved from Virgo into Libra at 4:58 a.m. that day, local time: in Virgo for a birth before then, in Libra for one after.

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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
19°40′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
17°22′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
28°10′
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 mind and his heart (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life drew 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 quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.1°
Speaking freely and speaking carefully took constant balancing, and he weighed words before letting them go.
The Sun opposition North Node almost exact at 0.2°
Being himself and growing asked for different things, and his biggest steps forward came when he stretched past his habits.
The Moon square Mars almost exact at 0.5°
Quick feelings and a quick temper: he reacted first, and his courage came from the same place as his flashes of anger.
Venus square Pluto close at 1.6°
Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.
Jupiter sextile North Node close at 2.3°
Hope helped him grow: faith in what was possible kept him moving forward.
The Sun trine Jupiter close at 2.4°
His confidence came easily and spread: he thought big, and other people wanted to come along.
