Le Corbusier's Birth Chart
Sun in Libra · Moon in Gemini ≈
Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, known as Le Corbusier, was a French-Swiss architectural designer, painter, urban planner and writer who was one of the pioneers of what is now regarded as modern architecture. He was born in Switzerland to French-speaking Swiss parents and acquired French nationality in 1930. He designed buildings in Europe, Japan, India, and the Americas during a five-decade career. He considered that "the roots of modern architecture are to be found in Viollet-le-Duc." Wikipedia
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.
Le Corbusier's Sun, in Libra
Your identity seeks balance: beauty, fair agreement and the art of being in relationship.
Le Corbusier's Moon, in Gemini
Your emotions ask for words: to name them, tell them, understand them in conversation.
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.
Section III · The detail
Planets and aspects
The exact numbers behind the drawing. Each table expands one layer of the wheel.
Le Corbusier's placements
We compute the placements for the day of birth. Without the exact time the Ascendant and houses can't be fixed, but each planet's sign is reliable.
| Planet | Sign | Degree |
|---|---|---|
| Sun | Libra | 12°55′ |
| Moon | Gemini | 0°23′ |
| Mercury | Scorpio | 0°35′ |
| Venus | Virgo ℞ | 21°03′ |
| Mars | Leo | 25°11′ |
| Jupiter | Scorpio | 9°08′ |
| Saturn | Leo | 4°55′ |
| Uranus | Libra | 12°53′ |
| Neptune | Taurus ℞ | 29°47′ |
| Pluto | Gemini ℞ | 4°51′ |
Le Corbusier'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.
Bowl
Your planets fill half the chart: one half full, one empty, like something you seek to complete.
Their energy concentrates in the element of Air and the Fixed modality.
Sun is the most connected planet in their chart: 4 aspects tie it to the rest.
Venus forms no aspects: it expresses its energy with total independence.
Their chart forms no major pattern (grand trine, T-square, grand cross or stellium).
