What her chart says about her
Who she is
Sun in Taurus, the Gardener
Calm, patient and loyal. Grows good things slowly and keeps them for years. Purpose and patience work as a team: she builds slowly and gets better with every year.
The Sun sextile Saturn (close at 1.9°)
What she needs
Moon in Aries, the Quick Flame
Feels things fast and hot, and gets over them fast too. Needs action, honesty and room to move. Tenderness through and through: she needs beauty and affection the way others need air.
The Moon conjunction Venus (almost exact at 0.8°)
How she loves
Venus in Aries, the Chaser
Loves boldly and makes the first move. Wants excitement, honesty and a partner with spirit.
How she thinks
Mercury in Taurus, the Careful Thinker
Thinks things through at her own pace. Practical, patient and very hard to talk out of a view. A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and she sees answers others miss.
Mercury trine Uranus (close at 2.3°)
What drives her
Mars in Taurus, the Stayer
Slow to start and impossible to stop. She works steadily, builds things to last and does not give up under pressure. Drive and dreams mix uneasily: the goal is clear to her, and the way to it harder to see.
Mars opposition Neptune (almost exact at 0.5°)
The shape of her chart
In her chart, her identity, her mind and her drive (the Sun, Mercury and Mars) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws her attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
The sky the day she was born
The Moon
Janet Jackson was born four days before a new Moon. At noon that day the Moon was 14% lit, in Aries. Tonight’s Moon
The day
It was a Monday, 36 days before the June solstice.
