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.
2°04′
Moon in Scorpio
The Moon moved from Scorpio into Sagittarius at 10:15 p.m. that day, local time: in Scorpio for a birth before then, in Sagittarius for one after.
24°54′
Mercury in Cancer
The Remembering Mind. A memory for tone.
21°38′
Venus in Geminiretrograde
The Charmer. Love through conversation.
22°58′
Mars in Cancer
The Defender. Fierce for its own.
26°42′

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.
26°12′
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.
17°03′
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio
In Scorpio, Lilith is an intensity and a private power that stay unexplained.
13°28′
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 drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Cancer, 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 identity (the Sun in Cancer) and his optimism (Jupiter in Capricorn) face each other across the wheel, and his intensity (Pluto in Virgo) takes the strain: the part of him that works hardest.
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.
Mars opposition North Node almost exact at 0.5°
Old fights and the way forward disagree, and he grows by choosing which battles matter.
The Sun quincunx Neptune close at 1.1°
He keeps redrawing the line between the life he has and the life he imagines.
Saturn trine Uranus close at 1.3°
Old and new sit well together: he can change things without throwing out what works.
The Sun opposition Jupiter close at 1.6°
He reaches for more than one life can hold: big plans, big promises, and a habit of saying yes before counting the hours.
The Moon trine Mars close at 1.8°
His feelings turn straight into action: when something matters, he does something about it.
Mars sextile Pluto close at 2.7°
Stamina and willpower: he keeps going long after others stop, and he does his best work under pressure.
