Only in this chart

By sign alone Joe Cocker has look-alikes, so degrees do the splitting: Saturn at 26° Gemini and Mars at 28° Cancer, and no other chart here sits within a degree or so on both. Ashe misses by one planet.

  • Sun in Taurus with Jupiter in Leo. That pair shows up in 1 chart in 197 here, George Lucas and Rabindranath Tagore among them.
  • One planet retrograde: Neptune. Pete Townshend and Bob Dylan have the same set, 1 chart in 57 here.
  • Fixed at 74%. That puts this chart in the top 4% here for fixed weight.

What the chart says

In astrology, a Taurus Sun reads as steady and patient, with the Moon in Aries or Taurus depending on birth hour. By the book, Venus in Taurus + Mercury in Taurus + Jupiter in Leo reads as someone who enjoys good things slowly, decides slowly and won't budge and grows by taking the stage. Elements run earth 65%, air 13%, water 13%, fire 10%, fixed first at 74%, the nearest mix to Idris Elba.

Tightest aspects

  • Venus square Jupiter (0.1°). Taste keeps colliding with appetite for more, and only Mykhailo Mudryk has it tighter at noon.
  • Sun sextile Mars (0.5°). The ego gets an easy opening from drive, as tight as Michael Palin’s.
  • Mercury square Pluto (1.0°). The mind keeps colliding with the need for control, as tight as Criss Angel’s.
