Virgo 19.3° · born September 12, 1956
Birth time unknown

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

The day, read honestly

Mutable signs carry four of the ten placements whose signs are settled — the broadest certain weighting in the chart. The mutable signs sit where one season is already becoming the next — the scheme’s translators.

Positions at 12:00 civil time in British Hong Kong—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 19.3° Virgo — the second decan, 10°–20°, which the tradition sub-rules by Saturn. Degrees matter more than the sign label here: two people born a fortnight apart share Virgo and share almost nothing else about where the Sun actually stood.

The personal registers

For the fast movers, Mercury was at 12.1° Libra, Venus was at 3.8° Leo, Mars was at 17.8° Pisces. Read together: a mind at home in argument and pattern; taste that runs toward the vivid and the immediate; drive that moves on certainty and current.

The angles that hold

Neptune and Pluto hold the closest angle here — a sextile, 0.3° wide. The scheme reads a sextile as a door left unlocked. Useful, and entirely dependent on someone walking through it. Behind it, Saturn square Pluto at 1.4°, and the Sun opposition Mars at 1.5° — 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.

Figures in the geometry

Mercury 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

The classical table has one entry for this chart. Jupiter in Virgo at 13.7° is in detriment — the planet opposite its home, working against the grain. The old table grades terrain, not talent — a placement in fall works uphill, nothing more.

The shape of the whole

Tallied where the signs are certain — 10 placements whose signs hold for the whole day — the chart gives fire 4, earth 2, air 2, water 2, and mutable 4, fixed 4, cardinal 2 across the modes. Fire weights a chart toward initiative — starting, asserting, spending energy to find out what happens. Mars was retrograde — apparent backward motion from where the Earth sits, which the tradition reads as a function turned inward before it is turned out.

The Moon, and how far it can move

The Moon stayed in Sagittarius for the whole of that day at the birthplace, covering 12.1° between midnight and midnight. The sign survives the missing hour; the degree does not, and is given as a reference rather than a fact. At the noon reference it stands at 20.6°.
