Only in this chart

William Faulkner is the only chart in NEBO's celebrity base with Sun in Libra, Moon in Virgo and Venus in Leo at once. Virgil Abloh comes closest: same Sun and Venus, and only Moon stays unclear.

  • Jupiter in Virgo with Saturn in Scorpio. That pair shows up in 1 chart in 197 here, Ilya Ilf and Irène Joliot-Curie among them.
  • Sun and Venus swap signs. Sun in Libra and Venus in Leo each sit in the other's sign, called mutual reception, also in Virgil Abloh's chart, 1 chart in 145 here.
  • Three planets retrograde: Mercury, Neptune and Pluto. Mykhailo Kotsiubynsky and Alexandre Dumas have the same set, 1 chart in 120 here.

What the chart says

In astrology, a Libra Sun reads as charming and fair, a Virgo Moon as precise and self-critical: neighboring signs with little in common, which astrologers read as a low itch, the same pair Christina Milian carries. By the book, Mercury in Virgo + Venus in Leo + Saturn in Scorpio reads as someone who catches every typo, wants grand gestures and learns to let go. Elements run earth 42%, air 42%, fire 9%, water 7%, mutable first at 47%, the nearest mix to Jesse Owens.

  • Mercury sextile Saturn (0.4°). The mind gets an easy opening from self-control, as tight as Anthony Edwards’.
  • Saturn conjunct Uranus (0.6°). Self-control and the rule-breaking streak act as one, as tight as Kevin Durant’s.
