Adding up the elements and modalities of the signs holding the ten planets, the Ascendant and the Midheaven, this chart leans most to earth (33%) and cardinal (47%): the chart archetype The Builder. Builds brick by brick: sets goals, carries responsibility, and needs to learn to rest. Read about The Builder →

An archetype only says which kind of energy carries the most weight in the chart. It is a starting point for reading it, not a judgment of the person.

The tightest aspects in Salvador Dalí's chart

An aspect is the angle between two planets; the smaller the orb, the more closely their themes are read as bound together. The tightest in this chart:

• Sun square Saturn, orb 0.4°. Sun symbolizes core self, will and vitality; Saturn, structure, responsibility, limits and maturity. A square is usually described as friction that also drives.
• Venus sextile Neptune, orb 0.6°. Venus symbolizes love, beauty, values and pleasure; Neptune, dreams, imagination, compassion and blurred boundaries. A sextile is usually described as an easy cooperation that rewards a little effort.
• Saturn trine Pluto, orb 1.2°. Saturn symbolizes structure, responsibility, limits and maturity; Pluto, depth, power, transformation and renewal. A trine is usually described as a natural, easy flow of support.
• Moon square Neptune, orb 1.6°. Moon symbolizes emotions, comfort and the need to feel safe; Neptune, dreams, imagination, compassion and blurred boundaries. A square is usually described as friction that also drives.

Stelliums and patterns

• Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars in Taurus: three or more planets in one sign make a stellium, and that sign's themes stand out in the chart.
• Sun, Mercury and Mars in the 11th house: the part of life this house covers carries a lot of weight.
• T-square: Uranus, Neptune and Moon.

A birth chart describes the sky at the moment of birth. We use astrology's language as a cultural reference here: it says nothing about the person's character, private life or future.
