Only in this chart

Luther Vandross is the only chart in NEBO's celebrity base with Moon in Libra, Venus in Gemini and Mars in Taurus at once. Pete Seeger comes closest: same Venus and Mars, and only Moon stays unclear.

  • Sun on a sign change. The Sun moved from Aries to Taurus on this date, and the birth hour is unknown, so the Aries label here is the noon reading.
  • Four planets retrograde: Mercury, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto. Dario Fo and Pierre-Simon Laplace have the same set, 1 chart in 344 here.
  • Mars in Taurus with Saturn in Virgo. That pair shows up in 1 chart in 306 here, B. R. Ambedkar and Satyajit Ray among them.

What the chart says

In astrology, this date sits on the line between two Suns, and without a birth hour the Libra Moon stays open too. By the book, Mars in Taurus + Mercury in Taurus + Saturn in Virgo reads as someone who pushes slowly and never stops, decides slowly and won't budge and learns to stop correcting. Elements run air 40%, fire 30%, earth 23%, water 7%, cardinal first at 60%, the nearest mix to Steven Gerrard.

Planets

Gold line: Mercury conjunct Mars (1.0°). Red dash: Jupiter opposite Saturn (3.0°).
