Gillian Anderson’s birth chart
The aspects
9 August 1968, 06:00, Chicago, IL, USA
A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Gillian as “you”.
Important elements of every horoscope are also the aspects – they are angles which the planets and other important points form with each other.
Here, we consider six most important aspects: Conjunction (0 degrees), Sextile (60 degrees), Square (90 degrees), Trine (120 degrees), Inconjunction (150 degrees), Opposition (180 degrees).
The more accurate the angle between two planets is, the more important and influential is their relationship in your horoscope. When calculating the aspects, we also consider a certain deviation, which depends on the importance of the aspect and the planets involved (deviation can be anywhere from 5 to 10 degrees of the exact angle).
There are also many smaller aspects, which are only important, if they are very accurate (up to 1 degree) and they, of course, have smaller power or influence. They can be of help with a more detailed and deeper analysis or description of personal horoscope, but for now, we do not take them into consideration.
Continue reading the analysis for all your aspects.
Sun conjunction Mercury
Conjunction is actually the only aspect which the Sun and Mercury can form, because the maximum distance between them is less than 30 degrees (and so less than one astrological sign). You are usually a dynamic, moveable and persuasive person and usually have good ability of speech and communication. You quickly make conclusions and connections (unless Mercury is in another bad aspect or goes retrograde) and you often also have a good nose for business, you also master the art of bluffing. You have a sharp and quick mind, sense of detail and you are cunning, although you are also often talented in languages, writing, music and art. You are very sociable, also easy going and adaptable, that is why you have many acquaintances and friends and people, as a rule, like you and often invite you places. You have an audacious, curious and youthful nature and often also looks.
Sun square Neptune
You often have difficulties harmonizing your desires, expectations and dreams with reality and actual abilities or possibilities. On the other hand, these desires and dreams lead to fulfillment of your numerous goals, because you have many abilities in different areas. Unfortunately, you sometimes take advantage of these abilities merely as a good bluff or you can use them positively in numerous artistic areas, such as acting, and also many others, in which you need imagination besides getting in touch with other people's feelings and testing and shaping different roles and situations.
Sun conjunction Ascendant

Being too enthusiastic, you sometimes experience just the opposite of what you want, so with excessive display of love, which is actually an eager desire for it, you drive away some people instead of attracting them.
