The sky
on 24 March 2019.
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 have already started. While others weigh it up, you move on the first idea and correct as you go.
The zodiac starts here, at the March equinox. Mars rules this sign, and the Sun is exalted in it.
Waiting costs you more than being wrong. The real question is what you finish.
Why?
What you are trying to become, and what you need to be recognised for. In Aries, it starts before it is ready. You decide fast, correct on the move, and waiting costs you more than being wrong. Received as a guest of honour: amplified, sometimes past reason. A strength to dose, not to prove.
What settles you
You feel everything, and you show almost nothing. What touched you stays deep down, long after others have forgotten.
The brightest star of the constellation is Antares: the rival of Mars. Mars rules this sign in the old astrology, Pluto in the new.
The Moon is in its fall in this sign. What settles you is knowing the truth, even a bad one.
Why?
What settles you and what puts you on alert, before any conscious decision. In Scorpio, it plays out fully and in private. You watch for a long time before committing, then you do not let go. Opposite its exaltation: weakened ground. Not a sentence — a place where you learn what others take for granted.
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 resembles nobody else. You often begin with friendship, and you keep your freedom in the middle of the relationship.
Aquarius carries water in every drawing, yet it is an air sign: what it pours is ideas. Saturn rules it in the old astrology, Uranus in the new.
What a couple is supposed to be, you would rather decide for yourself.
Why?
What draws you in and what you offer — in love as in taste. In Aquarius, it happens off the rulebook. You step back where others lean in, and it reads as coldness.
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.
Venus rules this sign. In its constellation shine the Pleiades, seven sisters to the Greeks, visible to the naked eye on winter nights.
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 in images. You understand without knowing how, and you struggle to retrace the path and explain it.
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.
Mercury is in detriment and in its fall in this sign: your intuition does not fit easily into a sentence.
Why?
How you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself. In Pisces, it happens by absorption. You take on the mood of a room without choosing to, and sometimes mistake it for your own. Opposite its home: adverse ground. What it governs takes deliberate effort — and is worth working for exactly that reason. 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 leaving. A country, a language, a big idea: you need air and meaning.
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.
Jupiter rules this sign. Your faith carries you far, and sometimes excuses you from checking.
Why?
What you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach. In Sagittarius, it needs a horizon. You take badly to having your ground narrowed, and you leave rather than negotiate. At home. What it governs runs without resistance — the ground where you do not have to force anything.
Where you hold firm
You know what lasting means. You aim high, you move slowly, and you carry more than your share.
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.
Saturn rules this sign. Rest, for you, has to be learned too.
Why?
What you take seriously, and where you hold yourself to a line. In Capricorn, it gets built and proven. You aim far, demand a lot of yourself, and give yourself credit late. At home. What it governs runs without resistance — the ground where you do not have to force anything.
What dominates
You trust what can be verified — a plan, a number, a proof. Earth's known flip side: change requires a serious reason, never a passing urge.
Why?
We count the ten planets and the rising sign, as in the app.
