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.

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 Scorpio
The direction his life grows in: Scorpio, intense and private.
29°02′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
7°30′
Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.
9°49′
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 discipline (the Sun, Mercury and Saturn) 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.
The Sun conjunction Saturn almost exact at 0.1°
Serious from early on: purpose and duty are one thing to him, and he treats his own life as work to be done well.
Jupiter sextile North Node almost exact at 0.9°
Hope helps him grow: faith in what is possible keeps him moving forward.
Neptune sextile Pluto close at 1.0°
A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.
Venus conjunction Neptune close at 1.2°
Romance without limits: he falls for ideals as much as people, and his taste runs to the dreamy and the beautiful.
Pluto square North Node close at 1.4°
Old attachments hold him back from the way forward, and he grows by letting some things go.
The Sun trine Uranus close at 1.4°
Independence comes easily: he does things his own way, and people find it refreshing rather than rude.

Saturn trine Uranus close at 1.5°
Old and new sit well together: he can change things without throwing out what works.
Venus sextile Pluto close at 2.2°
He loves with depth and loyalty, and the bonds he forms change both people.
Mars opposition Jupiter close at 2.3°
He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.
Mars trine North Node wide at 3.2°
Courage moves him forward, and each bold step takes him further along his path.
Venus square Uranus wide at 4.2°
Love comes in sudden starts and stops: he falls for people quickly and needs room just as quickly.
Saturn square Pluto wide at 4.9°
Heavy demands and hard limits: he faces a great deal of pressure and comes out tougher for it.
The Sun square Pluto wide at 5.0°
Nothing about him is halfway: he insists on running his own life, and the struggle makes him formidable.
Uranus square Neptune wide at 5.5°
The urge for change and the longing for ideals clash, and he lives with both.
Saturn conjunction North Node wide at 6.3°
A serious path: growing asks for patience, and he gives it.
The Sun conjunction North Node wide at 6.4°
His identity and his direction in life line up: the more fully he becomes himself, the further he goes.
The Sun conjunction Mercury wide at 8.3°
His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.
