The sky
on 6 November 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 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
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 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 move when it is worth it, and it shows. You like to lead, to defend, to stand in front. What wounds your pride gets you going.
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”.
You work better when somebody is watching.
Why?
What you go after, and how you fight when you meet resistance. In Leo, it is done large or not at all. You need it to be seen, and lukewarm stings more than a flat no.
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 accumulating. A good meal, a fine object, an account rising slowly: your confidence needs proof you can touch.
Venus rules this sign. In its constellation shine the Pleiades, seven sisters to the Greeks, visible to the naked eye on winter nights.
Too much is rarely enough for you, and that is where it costs.
Why?
What you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach. 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.
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.
What dominates
You start faster than most people, and waiting costs you more than doing. Fire's known flip side: starting comes more naturally than finishing.
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.
