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.
Martin Luther's Sun, in Scorpio
Your core is intensity: living fully, transforming yourself and looking where others turn away. Your essence grows stronger in depth, transformation and naked truth. You need to cross the shadows, let go of what is obsolete and be reborn with greater inner solidity.
Martin Luther's Moon, in Aries
You feel in flares: fast, honest, direct emotions that ask for an immediate response and forgive quickly. Your refuge is autonomy and your ability to heal conflict fast.
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.
Martin Luther'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 | Scorpio | 26°54′ |
| Moon | Aries | 5°16′ |

| Pluto | Libra | 13°00′ |
Martin Luther'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 Fire and the Fixed modality.
Moon is the most connected planet in their chart: 4 aspects tie it to the rest.
Three or more planets together in Scorpio: a strongly marked focus of energy in that area.
Three or more planets together in Sagittarius: a strongly marked focus of energy in that area.
