Scorpio 1.6° · born October 25, 1838
Birth time unknown

Birth date sourced. Birth time unknown.The Moon remained in Capricorn throughout that civil day. Everything below uses only what the complete civil day settles.

The day, read honestly

The chart's headline is a sextile: Mercury and Mars within 0.7°, thinking wired to drive. A sextile pays out only on effort; the scheme calls it opportunity rather than gift.

Positions at 12:00 civil time in Rue Louise-Émilie-de-La-Tour-d'Auvergne—a reference instant, not a birth time. No houses, rising sign, angles, or sect were computed.

Where the Sun actually stood

The Sun sits at 1.6° Scorpio — the first decan, 0°–10°, which the tradition sub-rules by Mars. Degrees matter more than the sign label here: two people born a fortnight apart share Scorpio and share almost nothing else about where the Sun actually stood.

The fast planets

Closer in, Mercury stands at 25.1° Libra; Venus stands at 18.3° Libra; Mars stands at 24.4° Leo. The tradition reads a mind at home in argument and pattern from Mercury, taste led by wit and proportion from Venus, drive that ignites on contact from Mars.

The angles that hold

The tightest geometry in the chart puts Mercury a sixth of the circle apart from Mars, 0.7° off exact. A sextile pays out only on effort; the scheme calls it opportunity rather than gift. Behind it, Jupiter trine Neptune at 1.5°, and Venus opposition Pluto at 1.7° — both still well inside the orbs this site uses. Each angle here was measured at every hour of the civil day and held; whatever the missing clock said, this geometry was in it.

What the angles build

The Moon stands apart from every major angle the day held — the tradition reads an unaspected planet as a voice that speaks on its own schedule, unmodulated by the rest of the chart.

The classical map

Two planets here sit in a sign the classical scheme scores. The Moon in Capricorn at 20.7° is in detriment — the planet opposite its home, working against the grain; Venus in Libra at 18.3° is in domicile — the planet in its own sign, running on home rules. Condition, not character: that is all the dignity table ever measured.

The shape of the whole

Balance, counted honestly across the 10 placements whose signs hold for the whole day: elements air 4, water 3, fire 2, earth 1; modalities cardinal 5, fixed 4, mutable 1. Uranus and Pluto 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, and how far it can move

The Moon stayed in Capricorn for the whole of that day at the birthplace, covering 13.3° between midnight and midnight. That is quick enough to make the exact degree a neighbourhood rather than an address, and slow enough to leave the sign settled. At the noon reference it stands at 20.7°.
