Only in this chart

Lou Reed is the only chart in NEBO's celebrity base with Moon in Virgo, Mars in Taurus and Jupiter in Gemini at once. Tamer Hosny comes closest: same Moon and Jupiter, but Mars in Gemini.

  • Venus in Aquarius with Mars in Taurus. That pair shows up in 1 chart in 229 here, Terry Jones and Eusébio among them.
  • Eclipse birthday. A total lunar eclipse peaked on this date somewhere on Earth, true for 1 chart in 153 here. Rodrygo and Catherine, Princess of Wales share the same kind.
  • Venus and Saturn swap signs. Venus in Aquarius and Saturn in Taurus each sit in the other's sign, called mutual reception, also in Aretha Franklin's chart, 1 chart in 41 here.

What the chart says

In astrology, a Pisces Sun reads as intuitive and dreamy, a Virgo Moon as precise and self-critical: opposite signs, the full-Moon setup where public and private pull apart, the same pair Corbin Bleu carries. By the book, Mars in Taurus + Venus in Aquarius + Saturn in Taurus reads as someone who pushes slowly and never stops, wants a friend first and learns what's enough. Elements run earth 47%, water 28%, air 23%, fire 2%, mutable first at 63%, the nearest mix to Issa Rae.

Planets

Gold line: Mercury trine Jupiter (2.0°). Red dash: Sun square Jupiter (1.0°).

Tightest aspects

  • Mars conjunct Uranus (0.6°). Drive and the rule-breaking streak act as one, as tight as Omar Gooding’s.
  • Sun square Jupiter (1.0°). The ego keeps colliding with appetite for more, as tight as Enrico Fermi’s.
  • Mars trine Neptune (1.7°). Drive and the dreamer side run downhill together, as tight as Dylan Minnette’s.
