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.
12°32′
Moon in Libra
The Moon moved from Libra into Scorpio at 2:22 p.m. that day, local time: in Libra for a birth before then, in Scorpio for one after.
28°38′
Mercury in Taurus
The Careful Thinker. Slow to decide, sure once decided.
24°34′
Venus in Gemini
The Charmer. Love through conversation.
23°21′
Mars in Cancer
The Defender. Fierce for its own.

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 Leo
The direction his life grows in: Leo, warm and dramatic.
6°08′
Chiron in Aries
In Aries, Chiron is a doubt about the right to go first, and with it a talent for giving others their nerve.
26°55′
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer
In Cancer, Lilith is a fierce need to belong, and no wish to look after anyone on command.
18°48′
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.
Yod
Two planets in easy contact both point awkwardly at a third, which becomes the focus: a talent that takes constant adjusting.
In his chart, his heart (Venus in Gemini) and his imagination (Neptune in Leo) both point at his optimism (Jupiter in Capricorn), the part of him that kept needing adjustment and gave his life its focus.
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.
Mercury sextile Uranus almost exact at 0.6°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and he saw answers others missed.
Jupiter quincunx Neptune close at 1.5°
His ideals and his beliefs needed constant matching up, and he kept asking what he really believed.
Venus quincunx Jupiter close at 1.7°
His taste and his appetite for more needed adjusting: he kept learning what was enough.
Venus square Uranus close at 1.8°
Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.
Saturn square North Node close at 2.6°
Duty and growth competed: what he owed others and where he needed to go called for hard choices.
Mercury trine Jupiter close at 2.9°
A generous, wide-ranging mind: he learned easily, told a good story and saw the big picture.
