Your chart

The sky of your birth.

Thursday, 17 April 1980. The Sun is crossing Aries. That day, the Moon is at: waxing crescent. Without the time, we stop at the day: no rising, no rising sign.

Change my birth details

The time and city are optional: without them, no rising sign, and we tell you what stays uncertain.

Hamal (α Ari)Sheratan (β Ari)Mesarthim (γ Ari)41 AriI

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?
Your Sun in Aries · exalted

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.

II

What settles you

Your birth time settles it.

Why?
Your Moon: Taurus or Gemini

What settles you and what puts you on alert, before any conscious decision.

III

What people see first

It takes your birth time and city.

Why?
Your rising sign

The first thing people register about you, before they know you.

Castor (α Gem)Pollux (β Gem)Alhena (γ Gem)Mebsuta (ε Gem)μ Gemη GemWasat (δ Gem)κ Gemλ Gemξ GemIV

What draws you

What draws you is a mind. Someone who makes you laugh, answers fast, surprises you by the third sentence.

Gemini is Castor and Pollux: one mortal, the other not, inseparable all the same. Mercury, the fastest planet around the Sun, rules this sign.

You fall under someone’s spell in writing as much as face to face. When the exchange dies, the rest follows.

Why?
Your Venus in Gemini

What draws you in and what you offer — in love as in taste. In Gemini, it runs through words and several threads at once. You get bored before other people do, and it shows.

Régulus (α Leo)Dénébola (β Leo)Algieba (γ Leo)Zosma (δ Leo)Chertan (θ Leo)Ras Elased (ε Leo)μ LeoAdhafera (ζ Leo)η LeoV

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?
Your Mars in Leo

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.

VI

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?
Fire 4 · Earth 2 · Air 2 · Water 1

We count the ten planets and the rising sign, as in the app.

What the sky is about to touch in you

The next exact passes on your chart.

  1. What you want runs into something. The friction shows what really matters to you.

    Why?
    The Sun square your Mars

    It grinds, and that grinding is what moves you.

  2. What you love and what you want pull in different directions. A purchase or a choice of the heart is up for debate.

    Why?
    Venus opposite your Sun

    The two pull against each other, you arbitrate constantly.

  3. What you take on meets less resistance, and it shows.

    Why?
    The Sun trine your Sun

    It flows so easily you do not notice it.

Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn: the rest of your story
Hamal (α Ari)Sheratan (β Ari)Mesarthim (γ Ari)41 AriVII

How you think

You think by talking, and you talk before you have finished. Your ideas arrive in one block, and you decide fast.

You are often right too early, and you let people know.

Why?
Your Mercury in Aries

How you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself. In Aries, it starts before it is ready. You decide fast, correct on the move, and waiting costs you more than being wrong.

Spica (α Vir)Porrima (γ Vir)Vindemiatrix (ε Vir)δ VirZavijava (β Vir)Zaniah (η Vir)θ Virζ VirVIII

Where you think big

You grow through detail. A trade learned thoroughly, a tool mastered, a method that works.

Mercury rules this sign and is exalted in it, a case unique in the zodiac. The brightest star is Spica, the ear of wheat.

Jupiter is in detriment in this sign: better sometimes stops you seeing good.

Why?
Your Jupiter in Virgo · in detriment

What you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach. In Virgo, it gets settled in the details. You spot what is off before looking for it, and you say so. 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.

Spica (α Vir)Porrima (γ Vir)Vindemiatrix (ε Vir)δ VirZavijava (β Vir)Zaniah (η Vir)θ Virζ VirIX

Where you hold firm

You let nothing pass, especially in yourself. Work done well reassures you, and a flaw can keep you awake.

Your rigour is your strength, as long as you know when to stop.

Why?
Your Saturn in Virgo

What you take seriously, and where you hold yourself to a line. In Virgo, it gets settled in the details. You spot what is off before looking for it, and you say so. 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.

The rest of your chart
The direction you grow in

You need it to be seen, and lukewarm stings more than a flat no.

Why?
Your North Node in Leo · The compass

The direction you grow in — what does not come naturally, and for that very reason moves you forward. Opposite it, the south node: what you already know too well. In Leo, it is done large or not at all. You need it to be seen, and lukewarm stings more than a flat no.

Where you refuse to bend

You adjust to whoever is across from you, until your own position blurs.

Why?
Your Lilith in Libra · The untamed

Where you refuse to bend — what you will not negotiate, even at a cost. Not a body: an empty point, the farthest the Moon swings away. In Libra, it is measured against the other person. You adjust to whoever is across from you, until your own position blurs.

The place dented early, still tender

You commit late, then you do not revisit it.

Why?
Your Chiron in Taurus · The wounded teacher

The place dented early, still tender — the one you avoid exposing, and exactly what you end up best at offering others. In Taurus, it takes the time it takes and it is not replayed. You commit late, then you do not revisit it.

Your dates

Calculated on your birth: they hold for no one else.

Your next solar return

17 April 2027

The start of a full lap. Nothing magical: a marker, and the only one in the year that is yours alone.

Your Saturn return

at 28: 7 December 2008 25 January 2009 17 August 2009

The classic reading: the end of an apprenticeship, and a bill coming due. What was built for real holds; what was avoided comes back on the table. Neither punishment nor promise — a threshold generations have found worth naming.

Your second Saturn return

at 58: 25 September 2038

Saturn takes about 29 and a half years to circle the zodiac. Your Saturn return is when it crosses back over its exact position at your birth — and because of retrogrades, it can cross up to three times.

Your next Jupiter return

28 July 2027

The classic reading: a cycle opening — the ground where you allow yourself to think bigger for the year that follows. Again: a marker, not a guarantee.
