Amedeo Modigliani's Birth Chart
Sun in Cancer · Moon in Pisces
Amedeo Clemente Modigliani was an Italian painter and sculptor of the École de Paris who worked mainly in France. He is known for portraits and nudes in a modern style characterised by a surreal elongation of faces, necks, and figures — works that were not received well during his lifetime, but later became much sought after. Modigliani was born and spent his youth in Italy, where he studied the art of antiquity and the Renaissance. In 1906, he moved to Paris, where he came into contact with such artists as Pablo Picasso and Constantin Brâncuși. By 1912, Modigliani was exhibiting highly stylised sculptures with Cubists of the Section d'Or group at the Salon d'Automne. Wikipedia
Sun in Cancer
20°28′Your core is care and protection: memory, shelter and the ability to make a home anywhere. Your life purpose is nourished by belonging, care and emotional memory. Your strength lies in welcoming, protecting and creating spaces where sensitivity is valued.
Moon in Pisces
8°06′Your emotional world is porous and vast: you absorb other people's weather like a sponge and give it back turned into art or consolation. Your inner security needs places to retreat, imagination, rest and creative outlets to channel your immense sensitivity.
Birth time not documented
The Ascendant changes sign every two hours, and no verified birth time is recorded for Amedeo Modigliani, so this chart doesn't set it. Their planets by sign, however, remain reliable.
Section II · The map
Their natal wheel
The sky on the day they were born. The outer ring is the twelve signs; the lines across the centre, the aspects between planets. Without a birth time, houses and the Ascendant aren't drawn.

Beyond the planets
Three keys beyond the ten classical planets, which astrology reads as axes of the chart. All four angles need your birth time.
The wounded healer: a small icy body between Saturn and Uranus. It marks the wound that, once moved through, teaches.
Not a body but a point of the Moon's orbit. It marks the direction of your growth.
The Black Moon: a mathematical point tied to the untamed and what refuses to submit.
Amedeo Modigliani's aspects
Each aspect is an angle between two planets; it defines how they speak to each other. Aspects to the Moon are approximate: they depend on the exact birth time.
Elements and modalities
How their energy is split across the four elements and the three modalities.
Section IV · The signature
The signature of their sky
The whole at a glance: how the planets are spread, and the accents that set the overall tone of the chart.
Bucket
A group of planets with a single one opposite: that 'handle' planet becomes the channel of the whole chart.
Their energy concentrates in the element of Water and the Mutable modality.
Lilith is the most connected planet in their chart: 8 aspects tie it to the rest.
Three or more planets together in Cancer: a strongly marked focus of energy in that area.
