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.

Wangari Muta Maathai's Sun, in Aries

Your identity ignites when you begin and open the way: you need causes, challenges and the freedom to go first in order to discover who you are through action.

Wangari Muta Maathai's Moon, in Aquarius

You feel with a certain panoramic distance: you need freedom even inside affection. You process emotions with objective detachment and a need for personal space. Your comfort lies in mental freedom, authenticity without labels and the complicity of groups.

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.
