The sky
on 20 November 1929.
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 watch for a long time before committing. You already know a lot about people while they think they are still finding you out. Then you do not let go.
The brightest star of the constellation is Antares: the rival of Mars. Mars rules this sign in the old astrology, Pluto in the new.
Everything plays out fully and in private. What you forgive, you do not forget.
Why?
What you are trying to become, and what you need to be recognised for. In Scorpio, it plays out fully and in private. You watch for a long time before committing, then you do not let go.
What settles you
You settle when everyone is home. You remember every word, every birthday, what was forgotten. Your mood follows that of your people.
Cancer begins at the June solstice, the day the Sun stops and turns back. The Moon rules this sign.
The Moon is at home in this sign. It changes shape every night, and so do you.
Why?
What settles you and what puts you on alert, before any conscious decision. In Cancer, it goes through who is present first. You protect before you explain, and you remember everything. At home. What it governs runs without resistance — the ground where you do not have to force anything.
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 a secret. Lightness bores you fast: you need someone who holds your gaze and does not lie.
Venus is in detriment in this sign. You give all or nothing, and you do not forget who betrayed you.
Why?
What draws you in and what you offer — in love as in taste. 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 home: adverse ground. What it governs takes deliberate effort — and is worth working for exactly that reason.
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
You think by digging. You hear what people do not say, and you ask the awkward question.
You say little, and you aim true.
Why?
How you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself. In Scorpio, it plays out fully and in private. You watch for a long time before committing, then you do not let go.
Where you think big
You grow by learning. A book, a meeting, one more subject: your best doors open through talking.
Gemini is Castor and Pollux: one mortal, the other not, inseparable all the same. Mercury, the fastest planet around the Sun, rules this sign.
Jupiter is in detriment in this sign: you know many things, less often where they lead.
Why?
What you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach. In Gemini, it runs through words and several threads at once. You get bored before other people do, and it shows. Opposite its home: adverse ground. What it governs takes deliberate effort — and is worth working for exactly that reason. 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.
Where you hold firm
You want convictions that hold. You doubt for a long time, you check, you build your own view.
What you believe, you have paid for, and you hold to it.
Why?
What you take seriously, and where you hold yourself to a line. In Sagittarius, it needs a horizon. You take badly to having your ground narrowed, and you leave rather than negotiate.
What dominates
You feel before you understand, and your memory files moments by what they did to you, not by their dates. Water's known flip side: absorbing moods that are not yours.
Why?
We count the ten planets and the rising sign, as in the app.
