Section I · The core
The two luminaries
Two lights set the tone of the whole chart: the Sun, the identity; the Moon, the emotional world.
Barack Obama's Sun, in Leo
Your essence asks to shine from the heart, with authenticity: to create, express and give warmth to those you love. You are contagiously vital. You need to inhabit your own centre with pride and give your creativity an outlet.
Barack Obama's Moon, in Taurus
Your emotional calm needs solid ground: routines, stability, physical comfort, body, nature and bonds that don't wobble. You nourish and are nourished through simple sensory pleasure, patience and the certainty of what is firm.
Without an exact birth time, the Moon could fall in the neighbouring sign: it changed sign that day.
Section II · The map
Their natal wheel
The sky on the day they were born. The outer ring is the twelve signs; the lines across the centre, the aspects between planets. Without a birth time, houses and the Ascendant aren't drawn.
Section III · The detail
Planets and aspects
The exact numbers behind the drawing. Each table expands one layer of the wheel.

Barack Obama's aspects
Each aspect is an angle between two planets; it defines how they speak to each other. Aspects to the Moon are approximate: they depend on the exact birth time.
Elements and modalities
How their energy is split across the four elements and the three modalities.
Section IV · The signature
The signature of their sky
The whole at a glance: how the planets are spread, and the accents that set the overall tone of the chart.
Seesaw
Your planets gather in two opposite groups: you live in the push and pull between them.
Their energy concentrates in the element of Earth and the Fixed modality.
Moon is the most connected planet in their chart: 7 aspects tie it to the rest.
Three or more planets together in Leo: a strongly marked focus of energy in that area.
Three planets in trine forming a triangle: a talent that flows almost effortlessly.
