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 Gemini
The Messenger. Curious and many-sided.
14°46′
Moon in Capricorn
The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 2:38 p.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.
28°35′
Mercury in Cancer
The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.
6°41′
Venus in Gemini
The Charmer. Love through conversation.
24°26′
Mars in Virgo
The Craftsperson. The craftsman’s drive.

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.
22°26′
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.
3°39′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
2°31′
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 heart, his imagination and his intensity (the Sun, Venus, Neptune and Pluto) gather in Gemini, and that part of life drew his attention first.
T-square
Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.
In his chart, his identity and his intensity (the Sun and Pluto, together in Gemini) and his independence (Uranus in Sagittarius) face each other across the wheel, and his drive (Mars in Virgo) took the strain: the part of him that worked hardest.
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.
The Sun opposition Uranus almost exact at 0.1°
He needed room to be himself, and any rule that fit too tightly got broken.
The Sun quincunx Saturn almost exact at 0.3°
The wish to shine and the wish to be careful needed steady adjusting: he moved forward a step, then checked it.
Mars trine Jupiter almost exact at 0.6°
Big drive and big confidence: he went after large goals, and his enthusiasm carried others along.
Saturn quincunx Pluto close at 2.0°
He kept adjusting between control and acceptance, and learned where each belonged.
Venus quincunx North Node close at 2.0°
He kept adjusting what he wanted from people to fit the life he was growing into.
Uranus opposition Pluto close at 2.2°
Upheaval and the urge to break free ran strong, and he pushed for change rather than waiting for it.

The Sun square Mars wide at 4.3°
He fought hard for what he wanted, and his temper was part of his courage.
Mercury opposition Jupiter wide at 4.4°
Big ideas and loose details: he thought on a large scale, and the small print was where things got away from him.
Mars square Uranus wide at 4.4°
Restless and quick to rebel: he pushed against limits, and sudden decisions came with the territory.
