The sky
on 6 September 2010.
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
You settle once you have been seen. A real thank you, a look that stays, and the day mends.
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”.
Indifference hits you harder than blame.
Why?
What settles you and what puts you on alert, before any conscious decision. 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 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 hesitate to strike first. You weigh, you consult, you look for the way out that upsets nobody. But faced with an injustice, you stand up.
Mars is in detriment in this sign. You fight your battles better for other people.
Why?
What you go after, and how you fight when you meet resistance. In Libra, it is measured against the other person. You adjust to whoever is across from you, until your own position blurs. Opposite its home: adverse ground. What it governs takes deliberate effort — and is worth working for exactly that reason.
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 by starting. An opening appeals when nobody has dared yet, and you go before you have the plan.
The zodiac starts here, at the March equinox. Mars rules this sign, and the Sun is exalted in it.
Your luck is your momentum. Your risk is not finishing.
Why?
What you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach. In Aries, it starts before it is ready. You decide fast, correct on the move, and waiting costs you more than being wrong. 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 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.
What dominates
You need to understand before you feel, and talking about a problem is already part of solving it. Air's known flip side: staying above things instead of deciding.
Why?
We count the ten planets and the rising sign, as in the app.
