Joe Jackson

Fire has four of his ten planets, water three, air two and a single one earth, and five of the ten sit in cardinal signs with nothing retrograde anywhere. Fire moves and cardinal starts. The record gives Jackson Is She Really Going Out with Him?, and then jazz, classical and everything else.

The Sun sits at eighteen degrees of Leo with Mercury at seven and Pluto at twenty four, three planets in the sign the Sun itself rules, which gives identity an unusually solid footing along with a dependence on an audience the person rarely admits to. The Moon answers from Capricorn at eleven, managing a feeling rather than expressing it. For a musician who moved from one song into three other kinds of music, a Leo group over a Capricorn Moon is the division that matters: the appetite is public and the discipline is not.

Four of the six closest contacts in this chart are between the slow planets and belong to a generation rather than to him, which makes this a loose birth and worth saying plainly. What is personal is mild: the Sun sits in quiet contact with Jupiter at just under two thirds of a degree, growth arriving without much friction, and in mild friction with Venus at just under three fifths. Venus sits in quiet contact with Saturn at just over a degree, steady affection and a preference for the durable.

Jupiter came the whole way round to its Cancer starting point on 20 April 2026, at seventy one, and five circuits precede it. Cancer counts what is still being held, which for a record that names one song and then three genres is the measure that reaches all of it. Nothing retrograde anywhere, with a Leo group and one planet in earth, describes somebody who kept moving outward without ever having to argue with himself about whether to.
