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 Capricorn
The Architect. Ambitious, patient and dry.
7°14′
Moon in Capricorn
The Moon moved from Capricorn into Aquarius at 11:44 p.m. that day, local time: in Capricorn for a birth before then, in Aquarius for one after.
23°29′
Mercury in Capricorn
The Planner. Foundations first.
17°54′
Venus in Aquarius
The Kindred Spirit. Friend first, lover too.

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 Aries
The direction his life grows in: Aries, bold and direct.
11°04′
Chiron in Aquarius
In Aquarius, Chiron is the ache of not quite fitting in, and a gift for making room for every outsider.
3°49′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
24°22′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
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 Neptune exact at 0.0°
He thought in pictures and music: his words carried a mood, and his imagination gave his ideas colour.
Saturn square North Node exact at 0.0°
Duty and growth competed: what he owed others and where he needed to go called for hard choices.
Venus conjunction Mars almost exact at 0.2°
Magnetic: affection and desire came together in him, and people noticed.
The Moon trine Uranus close at 2.1°
His feelings liked freedom: he needed space in close ties and gave it back just as easily.
The Sun trine Pluto wide at 3.5°
A quiet strength: under pressure he grew more focused, and he knew how to start over.
Uranus sextile Neptune wide at 3.5°
Change and idealism went together: new ideas came wrapped in dreams of a better world.
Show more aspectsShow fewer
Mercury trine Uranus wide at 3.5°
A quick, original mind: ideas arrived in flashes, and he saw answers others missed.
The Sun opposition Saturn wide at 3.8°
Self-belief came slowly and had to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counted.
The Sun square North Node wide at 3.8°
Being himself and growing asked for different things, and his biggest steps forward came when he stretched past his habits.
Mars square Uranus wide at 4.8°
Restless and quick to rebel: he pushed against limits, and sudden decisions came with the territory.
Venus square Uranus wide at 5.0°
Love came in sudden starts and stops: he fell for people quickly and needed room just as quickly.
The Sun square Jupiter wide at 6.0°
He reached for more than one life could hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
Mercury opposition Saturn wide at 6.8°
He doubted his own ideas before anyone else could, and so he checked every one twice.
Saturn trine Neptune wide at 6.9°
Practical dreams: he gave ideals a shape and worked to make them real.
