Paulo Coelho’s birth chart
The aspects
24 August 1947, 12:05, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Paulo 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 conjunction Venus
Because of such an aspect, you are kind and good-natured and you usually also have a pleasant look, you are often even a very attractive person and in general, you radiate warmness and heartiness. You love life and all pleasures – good food (that is why you often have to fight obesity) and drink, music, art and all other good things in life, including friendships, love and sex. Sometimes you tend to be lazy and take the line of least resistance. You appreciate simple values, are friendly and usually hospitable and people mostly like you because of these characteristics. You often have a talent for artistic professions and can be very successful in them. Because in astrology Venus is attributed a happy and good meaning, your life is mostly accompanied by happiness and good health (unless other strong aspects don't indicate differently). Often, this aspect also promises fertility.
Sun conjunction MC
The Sun which appears ˝highest˝ in the sky and which is also in conjunction with the axis of the 10th house (MC), actually has a similar influence as when it appears in Ascendant, but it influences you once your personality is already shaped and not so much the characteristics given to you at birth (which is the case with the Ascendant). Its influence is perhaps also not so visible in a physical sense (as in conjunctions with the Ascendant), so it perhaps doesn't influence your looks so much, but more what you radiate and your entire personality, which you build in life, which is tightly connected to the profession you do or the area in which you create. However, the Sun in this position often also influences your looks. You are well-natured and hearty, both in your feats and in leader position, which is not rare, because you often have leadership abilities and are also ambitious and people like and appreciate you because of your positive orientation and energy. You are successful in many professions and you act in manifold areas, most often in such which are in some way or another connected to the public.
