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 Taurus, 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 Taurus

    The direction his life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.

    22°32′

  • Chiron in Scorpio

    In Scorpio, Chiron is a wariness about trust that runs deep, and the strength to stay close when others are at their lowest.

    20°38′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.

    7°07′

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

Aspects by strength12 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.

  • Jupiter trine Pluto almost exact at 0.1°

    Ambition with depth: he knows how to build influence, and he uses it to make big changes.

  • The Sun trine Mars almost exact at 0.2°

    His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.

  • Saturn square North Node almost exact at 0.5°

    Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.

  • Venus quincunx Mars almost exact at 0.8°

    What he finds beautiful and what he desires keep parting ways, and love takes some working out.

  • The Moon opposition Venus close at 1.0°

    What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.

  • Saturn sextile Uranus close at 1.5°

    Old and new sit well together: he can change things without throwing out what works.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.6°

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

  • Jupiter sextile Neptune close at 1.8°

    Faith and imagination together: he believes in people and ideals, and that belief is catching.

  • Mercury trine Mars close at 2.5°

    A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.

  • The Sun conjunction Mercury close at 2.7°

    His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

  • The Sun square Neptune wide at 5.7°

    The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.

  • Saturn conjunction Pluto wide at 7.5°

    Iron will and great patience: he builds slowly and for keeps.

Water · feeling and intuition0

The Moon changed sign that day; it is counted where it stood at noon.

No water at all, so feelings come out in actions more than in words.
