Born on December 24, 2000?

Venus, Uranus and Neptune were all in Aquarius, so everyone born that day carries a strong Aquarius streak alongside their Capricorn Sun. Venus and Uranus sat less than a degree apart in Aquarius, 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.
