Capricorn 13.9° · born January 3, 1793
Birth time unknown

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

The day, read honestly

Six of the ten placements whose signs are settled fall in fixed signs, the widest weighting the unknown hour leaves certain. The fixed signs hold what the cardinal signs start; a chart weighted there finishes its sentences.

Positions at 12:00 civil time in Nantucket—a reference instant, not a birth time. No houses, rising sign, angles, or sect were computed.

Where the Sun actually stood

13.9° of Capricorn is the Sun's exact seat — second decan, 10°–20°, sub-ruled by Venus in the old triplicity scheme. The degree is the address; the sign is only the street.

The personal registers

For the fast movers, Mercury was at 8.8° Capricorn, Venus was at 20.5° Aquarius, Mars was at 14.2° Aquarius. Read together: thought with its feet on the ground; attraction that begins as conversation; effort aimed through strategy and words.

The angles that hold

The day's firmest angle joins Uranus and Pluto — a opposition holding at 1.1°. An opposition is the tradition’s tug of war. Both ends are real, and the work is holding them at once rather than picking a winner. Behind it, Jupiter square Uranus at 1.4°, and Venus conjunction Pluto at 1.5° — both still well inside the orbs this site uses. The unknown hour cannot unmake any of this: every aspect named survived all twenty-five samples of the day.

Figures in the geometry

Venus opposes Uranus while both square Jupiter. A t-square aims the whole axis at its apex planet; the tradition reads it as the chart’s standing assignment. The Moon makes no major aspect that survives the day; the old reading gives such a planet autonomy — it acts alone, sometimes loudly.

The classical map

Read against the old dignities, one placement stands out. Saturn in Aries at 25.4° is in fall — the tradition’s uphill placement, strength earned rather than given. None of this ranks anyone; dignity describes footing, and footing can be worked with.

The shape of the whole

The honest balance sheet uses the 10 placements whose signs hold for the whole day: earth 3, air 3, water 2, fire 2 across the elements, and fixed 6, cardinal 3, mutable 1 across the modalities. An earth emphasis reads as trust in the tangible: the plan matters less than whether the thing stands up. Mercury 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, and how far it can move

The Moon stayed in Virgo for the whole of that day at the birthplace, covering 12.1° 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 23.0°.
