Singer

Jay McGuiness

Earth takes five of his ten planets, water three, fire two and not one of them air. Earth builds and keeps at it; the element that would talk a thing over is missing from the chart entirely. McGuiness sang in the Wanted, and the record says he went on to win Strictly Come Dancing.

The Sun sits on the first degree of Leo and his Moon on the first degree of Virgo at noon, though it may still have been in Leo, so both lights sit at the very opening of a sign. Leo has an unusually solid sense of itself and a dependence on an audience it will rarely admit to; Virgo settles a feeling by finding a task. Saturn, Uranus and Neptune spread across fifteen degrees of Capricorn. For a singer who then won a competition he had to be judged in, either Moon would do a job, and the chart will not say which.

Uranus is tied to three planets at once. Mercury sits in hard contact with it at three quarters of a degree, thought jumping the rails; Mars sits in easy contact with it at just over a degree, which reads as quick reflexes and an instinct for the unconventional move; and Venus sits directly opposite it at just under a degree and a half. Mercury also sits at an awkward angle to Saturn at just over a degree. For a performer who had to learn a new physical discipline in public, drive on easy terms with the planet that refuses the expected arrangement is the contact that explains it.

Jupiter closed a full circuit on its Cancer birth degree on 3 June 2026, at thirty five, and two laps precede it. Cancer counts what is still being held, which for a record that names a band and then a dance floor is a question with two different answers. Five planets in earth with none in air describes somebody who learns a thing by doing it rather than by discussing it, and four of the ten facing backwards, every one of them from Saturn outwards, is where the patience for that came from.

Cast your own birth chart

Jay McGuiness is alive, so there is one chart here rather than two. The death chart is cast for a documented moment of death and there is nothing to cast one for, which is the point: this site does not estimate either end.
