Born on March 4, 2012?

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