Birth date sourced. No time in this profile’s Wikidata source.Within this date-only profile, the Moon sign is left open. The Moon crossed from Taurus into Gemini during that civil day. Everything below uses only what the complete civil day settles. A separate published-time record is documented in the source panel.
The Sun and Mars sit 0.2° from an exact opposition — near enough that the tradition reads identity and drive as a single working part. Across the wheel, each body sees the other in full. The old reading is not conflict so much as permanent mutual visibility.
Positions at 12:00 civil time in Coyoacán—a reference instant, not a birth time. No houses, rising sign, angles, or sect were computed.
Where the Sun actually stood
At noon on that date the Sun stood at 13.5° Cancer, inside the second decan (10°–20°), whose traditional sub-ruler is Mars. The decan is the older, finer division — it is what the sign looks like once you stop rounding it to thirty degrees.
The angles that hold
Closest first: the Sun to Mars, an opposition with 0.2° of slack. Across the wheel, each body sees the other in full. The old reading is not conflict so much as permanent mutual visibility. Behind it, Venus conjunction Pluto at 0.8°, and Mars opposition Neptune at 0.9° — both still well inside the orbs this site uses. These angles were checked through every hour of that civil day and survive throughout, which is why an unrecorded hour does not disturb them.
The classical map
The oldest layer of the scheme — seven planets, four conditions — flags two placements in this chart. Mars in Capricorn at 13.3° is in exaltation — the tradition’s honoured-guest placement, working at its best; Jupiter in Cancer at 20.5° is in exaltation. Dignity is a statement about conditions, not about worth.
The shape of the whole
Counting only the 9 placements whose signs hold for the whole day, the chart runs 4 water, 2 air, 2 earth, 1 fire by element and 5 cardinal, 3 mutable, 1 fixed by modality. A water emphasis reads as porousness: the room is registered whole, long before it is analysed in parts. Mars and Uranus were retrograde — the backward drift a body appears to make as the Earth overtakes it, read in the scheme as a function that reviews before it releases.
The Moon is genuinely open
The Moon crossed from Taurus into Gemini during that civil day. This profile leaves it open because its frozen Wikidata source contains a date but no time. A separate Astro-Databank record publishes 8:30 a.m. and is disclosed below; the calculator sample uses that record, while this page keeps its independently reproducible date-only computation instead of silently merging sources.
