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.
27°21′
Moon in Gemini
The Moon moved from Gemini into Cancer at 11:06 p.m. that day, local time: in Gemini for a birth before then, in Cancer for one after.

19°25′

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 Pisces
The direction his life grows in: Pisces, dreamy and compassionate.
20°39′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
26°55′
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo
In Virgo, Lilith is a set of private standards, kept for their own sake and not to please.
0°28′
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 discipline, his independence and his imagination (Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life draws 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.
The Sun square Mars almost exact at 0.1°
He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.
Venus opposition Uranus almost exact at 0.2°
Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.
Neptune sextile Pluto almost exact at 0.9°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Saturn conjunction Uranus close at 1.2°
Disciplined originality: he builds new things on solid foundations.
Mercury square 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.
Venus opposition Saturn close at 1.4°
Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

Venus trine Mars close at 2.8°

The Sun quincunx Uranus close at 3.0°
His restlessness keeps testing his plans, so he changes course more than once to stay true to himself.
Mars sextile Uranus close at 3.0°
Quick and inventive in action: he moves fast, breaks with habit and makes sudden changes work.
The Sun quincunx Saturn wide at 4.1°
The wish to shine and the wish to be careful need steady adjusting: he moves forward a step, then checks it.
Mars sextile Saturn wide at 4.2°
His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.
Jupiter sextile North Node wide at 4.4°
Hope helps him grow: faith in what is possible keeps him moving forward.

He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.
Jupiter trine Neptune wide at 6.4°
Faith and imagination together: he believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.
Chart signature
What’s this?Close
The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.
Elements
Modes
The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.
No fire at all, so the bold first move comes by choice rather than by instinct.
