The sky
on 30 June 1922.
The sign of each planet that day, calculated from astronomical ephemerides (Paris time). When a planet changes sign during the day, the exact time is given: that’s where the birth time decides.
If this is your birth date
What you are trying to become
Before you know what you think, you know who is there. You protect before you explain, and you remember everything: what you were told, and what no one remembered to tell you.
Cancer begins at the June solstice, the day the Sun stops and turns back. The Moon rules this sign.
What you are trying to become runs through the people you keep close. It remains to count yourself among them.
Why?
What you are trying to become, and what you need to be recognised for. In Cancer, it goes through who is present first. You protect before you explain, and you remember everything.
What settles you
You settle by putting things in order. A list, a cupboard, a problem cut into small pieces. Until it is sorted, you keep going back to it.
Mercury rules this sign and is exalted in it, a case unique in the zodiac. The brightest star is Spica, the ear of wheat.
What puts you on alert often comes down to a detail only you have seen.
Why?
What settles you and what puts you on alert, before any conscious decision. In Virgo, it gets settled in the details. You spot what is off before looking for it, and you say so.
What people see first
It takes your birth time and city.
Why?
The first thing people register about you, before they know you.
What draws you
What draws you has style. You like to give, to stage things, to make an occasion out of a Tuesday.
The Sun rules this sign: the only body in the chart that makes its own light. The brightest star of the constellation is Regulus, “the little king”.
You give a lot, and you want to see it in the other person’s eyes.
Why?
What draws you in and what you offer — in love as in taste. In Leo, it is done large or not at all. You need it to be seen, and lukewarm stings more than a flat no.
What gets you moving
You move toward a distant goal, in long strides. You fight for an idea, a conviction, and you lose patience with what seems small to you.
The centre of our galaxy lies in the direction of Sagittarius: look toward the archer, and you are looking at the heart of the Milky Way. Jupiter, the largest planet, rules this sign.
You set off strong, and the road interests you more than the last mile.
Why?
What you go after, and how you fight when you meet resistance. In Sagittarius, it needs a horizon. You take badly to having your ground narrowed, and you leave rather than negotiate. Retrograde at your birth: seen from Earth, the planet was moving backwards. What it governs turns inward first, and shows later than it does in other people.
How you think
You think fast, on several tracks. You learn in an evening what takes others a month, and you move on.
Gemini is Castor and Pollux: one mortal, the other not, inseparable all the same. Mercury, the fastest planet around the Sun, rules this sign.
Mercury rules this sign. You know a little of everything, and you know how to say it very well.
Why?
How you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself. In Gemini, it runs through words and several threads at once. You get bored before other people do, and it shows. At home. What it governs runs without resistance — the ground where you do not have to force anything.
Where you think big
You grow with someone. A partnership, a meeting, a well-found agreement open more doors than solitary effort.
Libra is the only sign of the zodiac that isn’t a living thing: it is an instrument. It weighs, and it stops only when both pans are level.
You help the people around you grow, and they often return it.
Why?
What you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach. In Libra, it is measured against the other person. You adjust to whoever is across from you, until your own position blurs.
Where you hold firm
You take bonds seriously. A commitment, for you, gets kept, and you want it to be fair.
Saturn is in exaltation in this sign: you know what an agreement is worth.
Why?
What you take seriously, and where you hold yourself to a line. In Libra, it is measured against the other person. You adjust to whoever is across from you, until your own position blurs. Received as a guest of honour: amplified, sometimes past reason. A strength to dose, not to prove.
