Singer

Sonu Nigam

Fire and air take four of his ten planets each, which leaves one apiece in earth and water. Fire moves and air arranges; the elements that would hold a position or register what it cost are down to a planet each. The record calls Nigam an Indian playback singer and one of the most recorded of his generation.

The Sun sits on the seventh degree of Leo with the Moon at fourteen of the same sign, so both lights sit in the sign the Sun itself rules. That gives identity an unusually solid and unusually visible footing, and a Leo Moon needs to be appreciated before it will settle. Saturn sits on the last eighteen minutes of Gemini and Mercury at twenty three degrees of Cancer and retrograde. For a playback singer, whose voice carries a film while somebody else is seen doing it, two lights in the performing sign is an arrangement worth sitting with.

The Sun is in three of the six closest contacts here. It sits directly opposite Jupiter at under three tenths of a degree, belief in its own scale meeting a limit; a fifth of the circle from Uranus at just under half, independence without a fight; and in quiet contact with Venus at seven tenths. Mercury sits square Mars at just under three quarters and a T-square closes on Mercury, Mars and Uranus with no outlet. Mercury, Jupiter and Neptune were the three retrograde planets.

Jupiter closed a full circuit on its Aquarius birth degree on 20 January 2021, at forty seven, in reverse as it was at his birth, and three laps precede it. Aquarius takes its reading from whatever did not follow the usual pattern, which for a singer the record measures by volume of work rather than by any one song is a pointed question. Both lights in Leo with the Sun opposite Jupiter, in somebody heard far more often than he is seen, is the fact to keep.

Cast your own birth chart

Sonu Nigam 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.

Cast for noon, as the birth time is unknown, so the longitudes are approximate.
