Born on February 23, 1968?

Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto were all in Virgo, so everyone born that day carries a strong Virgo streak alongside their Pisces Sun.

Planet signs are only part of the picture. Your rising sign changes about every two hours and the Moon moves half a degree an hour, so your exact birth time and place decide your houses, angles and Moon degree.
