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 Cancer
The Protector. Home, memory and care.
15°46′
Moon in Taurus
The Moon moved from Taurus into Gemini at 2:42 p.m. that day, local time: in Taurus for a birth before then, in Gemini for one after.
28°22′
Mercury in Leo
The Storyteller. A voice that carries.
7°01′
Venus in Leo
The Romantic. Grand, generous love.
28°12′

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 Capricorn
The direction his life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.
18°57′
Chiron in Cancer
In Cancer, Chiron is an early longing to belong somewhere, and a knack for making strangers feel at home.
28°29′
Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn
In Capricorn, Lilith is an ambition that has stopped waiting its turn.
8°09′
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 mind, his heart, his drive and his optimism (Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter) gather in Leo, 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 Moon square Venus almost exact at 0.2°
What comforts him and what he loves are different things, so his heart and his moods keep negotiating.
The Sun opposition Neptune almost exact at 0.4°
The self he knows and the image others see drift apart at times, and he works to keep hold of the real one.
Jupiter quincunx Neptune almost exact at 0.5°
His ideals and his beliefs need constant matching up, and he keeps asking what he really believes.
Pluto sextile North Node close at 1.3°
Deep change helps him forward: each time he starts over, he goes further.
Jupiter square Pluto close at 1.8°
He wants more power than comes easily, and the struggle for it shapes his life.
The Sun trine Pluto close at 1.9°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grows more focused, and he knows how to start over.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mercury opposition Saturn close at 2.2°
He doubts his own ideas before anyone else can, and so he checks every one twice.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 2.3°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus conjunction Mars close at 2.5°
Magnetic: affection and desire come together in him, and people notice.
The Sun opposition North Node wide at 3.2°
Being himself and growing ask for different things, and his biggest steps forward come when he stretches past his habits.
Neptune conjunction North Node wide at 3.6°
A path lit by imagination: he follows a vision more than a plan.
Uranus conjunction Neptune wide at 3.7°
Visionary: the new and the ideal meet in his imagination.
The Sun opposition Uranus wide at 4.1°
He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.
Uranus conjunction North Node wide at 7.3°
An unusual path: his direction in life comes through sudden turns and fresh starts.
