The sky
on 1 July 1977.
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 working. A feeling, you file away, to open later. Maybe. People see you holding on, and no one thinks to ask how you are.
Capricorn begins at the December solstice, the day the Sun turns back. Its symbol is a sea goat: half mountain, half ocean. Saturn rules it.
The Moon is in exile in this sign: what you feel goes first through what you do.
Why?
What settles you and what puts you on alert, before any conscious decision. In Capricorn, it gets built and proven. You aim far, demand a lot of yourself, and give yourself credit late. Opposite its home: adverse ground. What it governs takes deliberate effort — and is worth working for exactly that reason.
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 can be touched and tasted: skin, a fabric, a well-laid table. You love slowly, and you keep.
Venus rules this sign. In its constellation shine the Pleiades, seven sisters to the Greeks, visible to the naked eye on winter nights.
Venus is at home in this sign. Your loyalty shows in gestures, rarely in sentences.
Why?
What draws you in and what you offer — in love as in taste. In Taurus, it takes the time it takes and it is not replayed. You commit late, then you do not revisit it. At home. What it governs runs without resistance — the ground where you do not have to force anything.
What gets you moving
You do not start fast, and you do not stop either. People can push you for a long time and get nowhere. Your anger takes months to come, and as long to leave.
Mars is in detriment in this sign. Your strength is holding on.
Why?
What you go after, and how you fight when you meet resistance. In Taurus, it takes the time it takes and it is not replayed. You commit late, then you do not revisit it. Opposite its home: adverse ground. What it governs takes deliberate effort — and is worth working for exactly that reason.
How you think
You think with your memory. A smell, a sentence from ten years ago, and it all comes back. You listen to the tone as much as the words.
You retain what you were told, and above all how you were told it.
Why?
How you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself. In Cancer, it goes through who is present first. You protect before you explain, and you remember everything.
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.
Where you hold firm
Showing yourself has cost you. You want what you do to be recognised, and you find it hard to ask.
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”.
Saturn is in detriment in this sign: your pride works in silence.
Why?
What you take seriously, and where you hold yourself to a line. In Leo, it is done large or not at all. You need it to be seen, and lukewarm stings more than a flat no. Opposite its home: adverse ground. What it governs takes deliberate effort — and is worth working for exactly that reason.
