Thomas Jefferson's Birth Chart

Thomas Jefferson's Big Three

Here is how Astrologer's interpretation library describes each of these placements, for anyone born with them.

Sun in Aries: First Through the Door

You come alive at the start of things. Your sense of who you are is built from the moments you acted first, said the thing nobody else would say, or walked into a room already decided. Energy arrives in bursts and others feel it as heat. You are at your best when something needs a push and nobody is giving it, and restless when a plan asks you to wait. Follow-through is where the light thins out, and people learn to catch you early rather than late.

Moon in Sagittarius: Room to Roam

You feel best when there is somewhere to go. Confinement, a small room, a small plan, a conversation that keeps circling, makes you restless in the body before the mind catches up. Comfort is open space, a long drive, people who laugh easily. Your moods are warm and quick to lift, and you tend to trust that things will work out, which steadies others and sometimes skips past what hurts. Being needed too closely feels like a leash, and you love most freely with the door left open.

Capricorn rising: Older Than Your Years

You arrive older than you are. Strangers meet a composed face, a dry manner, a body held carefully, and they assume competence before you have shown any. People give you responsibility early and keep giving it, because you look like someone who carries things to the end. Warmth is there but arrives late, and many people decide you are cold before they reach it. Youth sits awkwardly on you, and age suits you better.

Planet positions in Thomas Jefferson's chart

Element and modality balance

Counting ten planets from the Sun to Pluto: Fire 4, Earth 3, Air 0, Water 3. By modality: Cardinal 3, Fixed 4, Mutable 3. No planet falls in a Air sign.

A fire emphasis

A fire emphasis makes you energetic, expressive, and action-oriented: you lead with enthusiasm, inspiration, and a need to act and create.

A fixed emphasis

A fixed emphasis makes you steady and determined: you sustain, persist, and hold your ground, sometimes to the point of stubbornness.

The tightest aspects in Thomas Jefferson's chart

• Mars square North Node, orb 0°15′
• Mercury sextile Uranus, orb 0°20′
• Venus opposite Pluto, orb 2°01′
• Mars square Pluto, orb 2°54′
• Pluto opposite North Node, orb 3°09′
• Sun square Uranus, orb 4°02′
• Sun trine Mars, orb 4°11′
• Venus sextile Neptune, orb 4°22′

The three tightest, as the library describes them for anyone born with the same contact:

Mars square North Node: Drive Against Direction

You move fast, and half the time you move in the direction you already know rather than the one you're growing toward. Mars square the North Node makes your instinct and your growth path pull at different angles, so action feels urgent but slightly off-course. The friction shows up as restarts: launching hard, stalling, launching again somewhere new, each attempt sharpening what your effort is actually for.

Mercury sextile Uranus: Curiosity Meets Circuitry

Two separate talents that shake hands when you make them. One side asks questions, takes notes, learns the mechanics. The other side wants the unproven version, the tech nobody's using yet, the friend group with the weird project. Nothing happens automatically here, but when you deliberately point your learning at experiments, you pick up new systems faster than people who've studied them longer.

Venus opposite Pluto: Pleasure Against Intensity

On one side, grace, ease, and the wish for things to be pleasant. On the other, the part of you that wants to go all the way in, no matter how ugly it gets. Neither side shrinks. Living with both intact makes you unusually good at intimacy; leaning entirely into one makes you either shallow or consuming.

How this chart was calculated

Every position on this page is calculated with the Swiss Ephemeris for Thomas Jefferson's recorded date, time and place of birth. The rising sign, the Midheaven and the houses depend on the birth time, so they are only as reliable as the time on record. The interpretations come from the same library Astrologer uses in its own chart readings.
