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 Sagittarius
The Explorer. Honest, free and far-seeing.
24°43′
Moon in Libra
The Moon moved from Virgo into Libra at 1:52 a.m. that day, local time: in Virgo for a birth before then, in Libra for one after.
5°59′
Mercury in Sagittariusretrograde
The Philosopher. The big picture.
20°13′
Venus in Aquarius
The Kindred Spirit. Friend first, lover too.
8°37′
Mars in Aquarius
The Rebel. Rebel with a cause.

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 Taurus
The direction his life grows in: Taurus, steady and sensual.
27°10′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
4°53′
Black Moon Lilith in Aries
In Aries, Lilith is a temper and an independence that ask nobody’s permission.
11°25′
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 mind and his independence (the Sun, Mercury and Uranus) gather in Sagittarius, 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.
Mars square Saturn almost exact at 0.1°
Drive with the brakes on: he wants to move, something holds him back, and the friction makes him tough.
The Sun sextile Mars close at 1.4°
His purpose and his drive work together: once he decides on something, he moves on it fast.
The Sun quincunx North Node close at 2.4°
The way forward asks him to bend habits that feel like part of who he is.
Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 3.1°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Mercury sextile Mars wide at 3.1°
A quick, direct mind: he makes decisions fast and says what he means.
Mars square North Node wide at 3.9°
Old fights and the way forward disagree, and he grows by choosing which battles matter.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Saturn opposition North Node wide at 4.0°
Duty and growth compete: what he owes others and where he needs to go call for hard choices.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 4.5°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
Venus square Pluto wide at 4.6°
Love comes with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stands.
Mercury conjunction Uranus wide at 5.8°
He thinks in leaps: brilliant, contrary and quick to get bored with the obvious.
The Sun conjunction Neptune wide at 6.2°
He takes in moods, music and other people’s hopes, and gives them back as something new.
