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 Cancer
The Protector. Home, memory and care.

Moon in Taurus

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 his life grows in: Aquarius, independent and original.
21°52′
Chiron in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Chiron is the feeling of having grown up too soon, and a gift for showing others how to stand on their own.
8°35′
Black Moon Lilith in Leo
In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.
12°14′
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.
Mercury conjunction Pluto almost exact at 0.3°
He thinks like a detective: nothing is taken at face value, and he remembers everything.
The Sun sextile the Moon almost exact at 0.4°
His purpose and his feelings are on the same side: the life he chooses and the comfort he needs go together.
Mercury opposition North Node close at 1.2°
Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and he learns new ways of thinking to move on.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Pluto opposition North Node close at 1.5°
Old attachments hold him back from the way forward, and he grows by letting some things go.
Jupiter sextile Uranus close at 1.6°
Sudden openings: he spots new chances early and jumps at them.

Mercury sextile Neptune close at 1.7°

The Sun quincunx North Node close at 2.2°
The way forward asks him to bend habits that feel like part of who he is.
The Moon square North Node close at 2.5°

Uranus square Neptune wide at 4.2°
The urge for change and the longing for ideals clash, and he lives with both.
Mercury square Jupiter wide at 4.3°
Big ideas and loose details: he thinks on a large scale, and the small print is where things get away from him.
The Sun square Neptune wide at 5.0°
The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.
Jupiter square North Node wide at 5.5°
Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.

Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
