The sky
on 11 January 2011.
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 aim far, and you demand a lot of yourself. What you make, you want still standing in ten years. Credit, you give yourself late.
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.
People think you feel nothing. You have simply already planned next year.
Why?
What you are trying to become, and what you need to be recognised for. In Capricorn, it gets built and proven. You aim far, demand a lot of yourself, and give yourself credit late.
What settles you
Your mood goes up like a match. An annoyance, and it is already said. Ten minutes later it is over for you, and you are surprised it lasts for others.
The zodiac starts here, at the March equinox. Mars rules this sign, and the Sun is exalted in it.
What settles you is acting: walking, doing, sorting it out right now.
Why?
What settles you and what puts you on alert, before any conscious decision. In Aries, it starts before it is ready. You decide fast, correct on the move, and waiting costs you more than being wrong.
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 comes from elsewhere. Another language, another accent, a way of seeing you did not know. You like the door left open.
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.
People keep you by leaving with you, never by holding you back.
Why?
What draws you in and what you offer — in love as in taste. In Sagittarius, it needs a horizon. You take badly to having your ground narrowed, and you leave rather than negotiate.
What gets you moving
You know how to wait for your moment. You aim far, you hold an effort with no witness, and your patience frightens people more than an outburst.
Mars is in exaltation in this sign: your strength is discipline.
Why?
What you go after, and how you fight when you meet resistance. In Capricorn, it gets built and proven. You aim far, demand a lot of yourself, and give yourself credit late. Received as a guest of honour: amplified, sometimes past reason. A strength to dose, not to prove.
How you think
You think wide. You see the general meaning before the details, and you prefer a big idea to a small proof.
Mercury is in detriment in this sign: you say what you believe before you have checked.
Why?
How you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself. In Sagittarius, it needs a horizon. You take badly to having your ground narrowed, and you leave rather than negotiate. Opposite its home: adverse ground. What it governs takes deliberate effort — and is worth working for exactly that reason.
Where you think big
You grow by letting go. An intuition, an uncalculated gesture, help given without counting come back by paths you did not plan.
Pisces closes the zodiac. Two fish swim in opposite directions, tied by a cord. The star that makes the knot is called Alrescha: “the cord”, in Arabic.
Jupiter rules this sign in the tradition. Your trust needs limits so it does not dissolve.
Why?
What you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach. In Pisces, it happens by absorption. You take on the mood of a room without choosing to, and sometimes mistake it for your own. At home. What it governs runs without resistance — the ground where you do not have to force anything.
Where you hold firm
You take bonds seriously. A commitment, for you, gets kept, and you want it to be fair.
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.
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.
