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.

Beyond the planetsNorth Node in Sagittarius, Chiron and Lilith
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 Sagittarius

    The direction his life grows in: Sagittarius, free and far-ranging.

    24°49′

  • Chiron in Leo

    In Leo, Chiron is a quiet doubt about deserving the light, and a gift for helping others shine without apology.

    19°45′

  • Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius

    In Aquarius, Lilith is the outsider’s streak, at its best when it does not fit in.

    28°00′

The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.

PatternsStellium, T-square
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 feelings, his heart and his intensity (the Moon, Venus and Pluto) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life draws his attention first.

T-square

Two planets pull against each other, and a third stands at right angles to both, where the strain gathers.

In his chart, his drive (Mars in Cancer) and his independence (Uranus in Capricorn) face each other across the wheel, and his identity (the Sun in Libra) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.

Aspects by strength14 between the planets, the closest first
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 square Neptune almost exact at 0.8°

    Facts and dreams blur together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details matter.

  • The Moon square Saturn close at 1.1°

    Feelings come second to duty: he holds himself to a high standard, even in private.

  • Uranus conjunction Neptune close at 2.1°

    Visionary: the new and the ideal meet in his imagination.

  • Jupiter square North Node close at 2.7°

    Easy hopes and the harder way forward go different ways, and real growth comes from the harder one.

  • The Sun square Mars close at 2.9°

    He fights hard for what he wants, and his temper is part of his courage.

  • Mercury square Uranus close at 2.9°

    His mind runs ahead of the conversation: he says the unexpected thing, and not everyone is ready to hear it.

Show more aspectsShow fewer
  • Venus trine Mars wide at 4.2°

    Charm and desire work together: he knows what he wants in love and how to win it.

  • Mars opposition Uranus wide at 4.9°

    Restless and quick to rebel: he pushes against limits, and sudden decisions come with the territory.

  • Mercury trine Saturn wide at 4.9°

    A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

  • Neptune sextile Pluto wide at 5.0°

    A quiet hunger for meaning under everyday life, and a tolerance for great change.

  • The Sun trine Saturn wide at 5.8°

    Purpose and patience work as a team: he builds slowly and gets better with every year.

  • Mars opposition Neptune wide at 7.0°

    Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to him, and the way to it harder to see.

  • The Sun square Uranus wide at 7.8°

    He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

  • The Sun conjunction Jupiter wide at 8.7°

    Optimism at the centre of him: he expects things to go well, and that confidence wins people over.

The chart’s balance at a glance: which of the four elements and three modes it leans on, which body is most connected, and any body standing alone.

Fire · instinct and enthusiasm0
Earth · the practical and the solid3

Water · feeling and intuition4

Modes

No fire at all, so the bold first move comes by choice rather than by instinct.
