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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Leo, Chiron and Lilith
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 Leo

    The direction her life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.

    6°41′

  • Chiron in Virgo

    In Virgo, Chiron is the sense that no effort is ever quite enough, and a gift for patient, practical help.

    14°04′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Leo

    In Leo, Lilith is the wish to be seen whole, without shrinking to suit anyone.

    29°25′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

PatternsStellium, Grand trine, Yod
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 drive, her discipline and her independence (Mars, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Gemini, and that part of life draws her attention first.

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 mind, her independence and her imagination (Mercury in Aquarius, Uranus in Gemini and Neptune in Libra) make the triangle, so these come to her naturally.

Yod

Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.

In her chart, her optimism (Jupiter in Leo) and her discipline (Saturn in Gemini) both point at her heart (Venus in Capricorn), the part of her that keeps needing adjustment and gives her life its focus.

Aspects by strength19 between the planets, the closest first
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.

  • Venus quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.4°

    She keeps weighing pleasure against duty, and joy comes once the work is done.

  • Pluto conjunction North Node almost exact at 0.6°

    A path of transformation: her direction in life asks her to change herself completely, more than once.

  • The Moon trine Mars almost exact at 0.8°

    Her feelings turn straight into action: when something matters, she does something about it.

  • Uranus trine Neptune close at 1.0°

    Change and idealism go together: new ideas come wrapped in dreams of a better world.

  • Venus quincunx Jupiter close at 1.7°

    Her taste and her appetite for more need adjusting: she keeps learning what is enough.

  • Uranus sextile North Node close at 1.9°

    Change helps her forward: she grows by trying the new.

  • The Sun opposition Jupiter close at 2.0°

    She reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.

  • Jupiter sextile Saturn close at 2.1°

    Hope and caution in balance: she dreams big and plans carefully, and both help.

  • Neptune sextile North Node close at 2.8°

    Imagination helps her forward, through art, ideals and care for others.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.4°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

    Stamina and willpower: she keeps going long after others stop, and she does her best work under pressure.

  • The Sun trine Saturn wide at 4.1°

    Courage moves her forward, and each bold step takes her further along her path.

  • Mercury opposition North Node wide at 5.2°

    Old ideas and the way forward are at odds, and she learns new ways of thinking to move on.

  • Mercury opposition Pluto wide at 5.8°

    Her words have force: she speaks to persuade, and she keeps her own counsel until the right moment.

  • Mars conjunction Uranus wide at 6.4°

    Electric: she acts on impulse, loves a risk and refuses to be told what to do.
