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.
20°00′
Moon in Cancer
The Nest-Maker. Home is the heart.
10°40′
Mercury in Virgo
The Analyst. The editor’s eye.
2°10′
Venus in Virgo
The Quiet Romantic. Love in small attentions.
24°32′
Mars in Aquarius
The Rebel. Rebel with a cause.
11°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 Aquarius
The direction her life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
14°05′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
12°33′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
11°40′
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 her chart, her identity, her mind, her heart and her intensity (the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Pluto) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws her attention first.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In her chart, her optimism and her imagination (Jupiter and Neptune, together in Sagittarius) and her discipline (Saturn in Gemini) face each other across the wheel, and her mind (Mercury in Virgo) takes the strain: the part of her that works hardest.
Grand trine
Three planets in an easy triangle, each in flowing contact with the other two: a gift that comes without effort.
In her chart, her drive, her discipline and her independence (Mars in Aquarius, Saturn in Gemini and Uranus in Libra) make the triangle, so these come to her naturally.
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 conjunction Neptune almost exact at 0.3°
A dreamer’s faith: she believes in something larger, and her compassion and her hopes go together.
Mars trine Uranus almost exact at 0.5°
Quick and inventive in action: she moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
Jupiter sextile Pluto close at 1.1°
Ambition with depth: she knows how to build influence, and she uses it to make big changes.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.4°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury square Neptune close at 1.6°
Facts and dreams blur together in her mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.
Uranus trine North Node close at 1.6°
Change helps her forward: she grows by trying the new.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
The Moon square Uranus close at 1.8°
Her moods change without warning, and she wants closeness and room to breathe at the same time.
Mercury square Jupiter close at 1.9°
Big ideas and loose details: she thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from her.
Mars conjunction North Node close at 2.1°
Driven towards her path: she goes after the life she wants with real force.
Mercury square Saturn wide at 4.3°
She doubts her own ideas before anyone else can, and so she checks every one twice.
The Sun conjunction Venus wide at 4.5°
Charm comes naturally: taste, warmth and a love of beautiful things are close to her core.
Venus conjunction Pluto wide at 4.6°
A deep, private heart: she draws people in and keeps some feelings locked away.
Mars trine Saturn wide at 5.5°
Her drive and her discipline work together easily: she can push hard and keep going.
Saturn opposition Neptune wide at 5.9°
The dream and the hard work seldom agree on terms: her discipline and her imagination ask different things of her.
Saturn trine Uranus wide at 5.9°
Old and new sit well together: she can change things without throwing out what works.
Jupiter opposition Saturn wide at 6.3°
Growth and caution keep checking each other: she moves forward in bursts, then pauses to consolidate.
The Sun conjunction Pluto wide at 9.2°
Intensity at the centre: she wants the whole truth about everything, herself first, and she remakes herself more than once to reach it.
