Birth date sourced. Birth time unknown.The Moon remained in Taurus throughout that civil day. Everything below uses only what the complete civil day settles.
The day, read honestly
The Moon stands at 14.1° Taurus, in exaltation — the tradition’s honoured-guest placement, working at its best. Of everything the chart can be read for without a birth time, that is the loudest single fact in it.
Positions at 12:00 civil time in Sakai—a reference instant, not a birth time. No houses, rising sign, angles, or sect were computed.
Where the Sun actually stood
The Sun's exact place is 14.9° Sagittarius. That falls in the second decan, 10°–20°, sub-ruled by Mars in the classical scheme — a fire sign read through a mutable season.
The personal registers
Day to day the chart speaks through Mercury in Capricorn (5.6°), Venus in Sagittarius (15.2°), Mars in Scorpio (18.1°): a mind that trusts the measured and the checked, taste that runs toward the vivid and the immediate, drive that moves on certainty and current.
The angles that hold
The Sun to Venus is the closest call of the day, a conjunction within 0.3°. The tradition stops reading a conjunction as two things. It is one appetite with two names, and it moves together or not at all. Behind it, Saturn sextile Pluto at 1.1°, and Mercury trine Uranus at 1.3° — 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
Mercury, Uranus, Neptune close a triangle of trines. A grand trine is read as self-sufficiency in one element: the current circulates whether or not anything is asked of it.
The classical map
The classical table has two entries for this chart. The Moon in Taurus at 14.1° is in exaltation — the tradition’s honoured-guest placement, working at its best; Mars in Scorpio at 18.1° is in domicile — the planet in its own sign, running on home rules. 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 earth 5, fire 2, water 2, air 1, and fixed 5, mutable 4, cardinal 1 across the modes. An earth emphasis reads as trust in the tangible: the plan matters less than whether the thing stands up. Neptune 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 Taurus 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 14.1°.
