Born on February 26, 1983?

Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune were all in Sagittarius, so everyone born that day carries a strong Sagittarius streak alongside their Pisces Sun. Jupiter and Uranus sat less than a degree apart in Sagittarius, a close conjunction shared by every chart from that day.

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.
