Jimi Hendrix's Birth Chart

Sun in Sagittarius · Moon in Cancer

James Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix was an American guitarist, singer, and songwriter. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most influential guitarists of all time. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992 as a part of his band, the Jimi Hendrix Experience; the institution describes him as "arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history of rock music".

Section I · The core

The two luminaries

Two lights set the tone of the whole chart: the Sun, the identity; the Moon, the emotional world.

Jimi Hendrix's Sun, in Sagittarius

Your identity is an arrow: meaning, horizon, the faith that there's always wider ground. It expands through the search for meaning, adventure and trust in life. You need wide horizons, philosophy and constant learning in order to make sense of existence.

Jimi Hendrix's Moon, in Cancer

You have deep intuition and a very rich emotional world, a profound sensitivity that registers everything and needs a den to process it: your natural refuge is home, intimacy and the bonds that make you feel safe and among family.

Without an exact birth time, the Moon could fall in the neighbouring sign: it changed sign that day.

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.

Jimi Hendrix'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.

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.

Dominants

Their energy concentrates in the element of Fire and the Mutable modality.

Traits

Mercury is the most connected planet in their chart: 9 aspects tie it to the rest.

Patterns
