The sky
on 31 July 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
You do things large or not at all. You need it to be seen, and lukewarm stings more than a flat no.
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 in front of everyone. What you want back is to be truly looked at.
Why?
What you are trying to become, and what you need to be recognised for. In Leo, it is done large or not at all. You need it to be seen, and lukewarm stings more than a flat no. At home. What it governs runs without resistance — the ground where you do not have to force anything.
What settles you
You feel everything, and you show almost nothing. What touched you stays deep down, long after others have forgotten.
The brightest star of the constellation is Antares: the rival of Mars. Mars rules this sign in the old astrology, Pluto in the new.
The Moon is in its fall in this sign. What settles you is knowing the truth, even a bad one.
Why?
What settles you and what puts you on alert, before any conscious decision. In Scorpio, it plays out fully and in private. You watch for a long time before committing, then you do not let go. Opposite its exaltation: weakened ground. Not a sentence — a place where you learn what others take for granted.
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
You love through details. You remember how the other person takes their coffee, you fix what creaks, and you rarely say what it means.
Mercury rules this sign and is exalted in it, a case unique in the zodiac. The brightest star is Spica, the ear of wheat.
Venus is in its fall in this sign: your affection reads in what you do, and not everyone can read it.
Why?
What draws you in and what you offer — in love as in taste. In Virgo, it gets settled in the details. You spot what is off before looking for it, and you say so. Opposite its exaltation: weakened ground. Not a sentence — a place where you learn what others take for granted.
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.
How you think
Your birth time settles it.
Why?
How you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself.
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.
