The sky
on 5 September 1970.
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 spot what is off before looking for it, and you say so. A wrong word, a wrong number, a detail nobody re-read: it jumps out at you.
Mercury rules this sign and is exalted in it, a case unique in the zodiac. The brightest star is Spica, the ear of wheat.
You ask a lot of others, and far more of yourself. What is finished, you rarely see.
Why?
What you are trying to become, and what you need to be recognised for. In Virgo, it gets settled in the details. You spot what is off before looking for it, and you say so.
What settles you
Your birth time settles it.
Why?
What settles you and what puts you on alert, before any conscious decision.
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 is beautiful and composed: a steady voice, a well-arranged room, someone who knows how to talk to people. Rudeness cools you in a second.
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.
Venus is at home in this sign. You are looking for a real face-to-face, with someone at your level.
Why?
What draws you in and what you offer — in love as in taste. In Libra, it is measured against the other person. You adjust to whoever is across from you, until your own position blurs. At home. What it governs runs without resistance — the ground where you do not have to force anything.
What gets you moving
You act in steps. You spot what does not work, you correct it, you start again until it is right.
Your anger takes the form of a precise remark, and it lands.
Why?
What you go after, and how you fight when you meet resistance. In Virgo, it gets settled in the details. You spot what is off before looking for it, and you say so.
How you think
You think by sorting. You see the typo in the text, the error in the sum, the extra word in the sentence.
Mercury rules this sign and is also in exaltation here. Your mind does not rest while one detail is still wrong.
Why?
How you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself. In Virgo, it gets settled in the details. You spot what is off before looking for it, and you say so. At home. What it governs runs without resistance — the ground where you do not have to force anything. 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 think big
You grow in crises. What frightens others interests you, and you gain strength there.
The brightest star of the constellation is Antares: the rival of Mars. Mars rules this sign in the old astrology, Pluto in the new.
Your appetite goes to the bottom of things: other people’s money, secrets, what goes unsaid.
Why?
What you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach. 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 hold firm
You build so as to lack nothing. You count, you set aside, you prefer little and solid.
Venus rules this sign. In its constellation shine the Pleiades, seven sisters to the Greeks, visible to the naked eye on winter nights.
The fear of going without gives you your patience.
Why?
What you take seriously, and where you hold yourself to a line. In Taurus, it takes the time it takes and it is not replayed. You commit late, then you do not revisit it. 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.
What isn’t there
There is no fire in your chart. Not one point, out of the 9 we count.
Momentum rarely ignites on its own, it comes through a decision rather than a rush.
Why?
We count the ten planets and the rising sign, as in the app.

What’s missing without the time
The rising sign, the houses and the exact degree of each planet depend on the time and place: the rising sign changes about every two hours. Add them in the calculator, or find your full chart in the app.
