The data behind this chart. Born January 15, 1929 at 12:00, Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Source: Astrodatabank, Rodden rating A (personal report). This atlas publishes only charts whose birth data carries an Astrodatabank Rodden rating of AA or A — birth records and personal reports, never fan-wiki estimates. Everything below is computed from those inputs by the observatory engine; nothing is copied from another reading.

The Big Three

This is a Capricorn Sun, Pisces Moon, Aries Rising chart — a day-sect chart, so the Sun leads and Jupiter is the benefic of sect.

All ten placements

Condition and emphasis

  • On the angles: Sun, Uranus, Pluto — planets in angular houses carry the loudest voice in a chart.
  • Venus is essentially dignified (net +6: exaltation, bound).
  • Saturn is essentially dignified (net +5: triplicity (cooperating), bound, decan).
  • Near-exact aspects: Jupiter trine Neptune (0.3°); Moon trine Pluto (0.9°).
  • Chart shape: Three or four loose clusters of planets, no dominant group. The native has multiple independent life themes — range over depth.

The Vedic view

Sidereal (Lahiri ayanamsa, 22.86° subtracted from the tropical longitudes): Sun in Makara (Capricorn), Moon in Kumbha (Aquarius), Mesha (Aries) rising. The Moon occupies Purva Bhadra nakshatra, pada 2, ruled by Jupiter — the lunar mansion that opens the Vimshottari dasha sequence.

The BaZi view

Four Pillars: year 戊辰, month 乙丑, day 庚申, hour 壬午. The Day Master is (金金), year of the ; Earth leads the five-element tally.
