Your sexual astrology chart

How sexual a person is cannot be scored from a birth chart: it has no such scale. What it describes is what draws you in (Venus), your temperament (Mars), what you need to trust someone (the Moon) and the desire you keep hidden (Lilith). The calculator on this page gathers all four points from your birth date, free and with no sign-up.

Your sexual temperament is read from Mars in your birth chart: its sign shows how fast desire flares up and how you make the first move. The element of Mars together with the element of Venus gives your element of desire, one of sixteen pairings. The sign of Mars is almost always known from the birth date alone, since it moves less than a degree a day.

Which partner suits you is read from three points. The Descendant, the start of the 7th house, describes the person you stay with, Venus the one you want, and the Moon the one you feel calm with. The Descendant needs an exact birth time: a 15-minute shift changes its sign for about 25 people in 100. The calculator gathers all three in the "Who suits you" block.

You can calculate most of it from the birth date alone. The signs of Venus, Mars and mean Lilith are almost always known from the date, since each moves less than one and a half degrees a day. The Moon changes sign within a day on 44% of days, and the calculator flags those cases. Without a birth time there is no 8th house and no Descendant.

Your result differs from your zodiac sign horoscope because horoscopes are written by Sun sign, while tradition reads desire from Venus and Mars. Venus shares the Sun's sign for 24 people in 100, Mars for 14, and both at once for three. So for 97 people in 100 at least one of the planets of desire sits in another sign.

The element of desire is the pairing of the elements of your Venus and your Mars: what draws you in and how you act. There are sixteen pairings. When the elements match or are allies, as fire with air and earth with water, taste and action pull the same way; that is the case for 52 people in 100. For the other 48 they argue, and the result explains how.

The calculation uses mean Lilith, and the text of the result is written for it. True Lilith follows the Moon's real orbit at the minute of birth and sits in another sign for 36 people in 100. If that applies to you, the result says so, and the Lilith calculator shows both versions with their degrees.

This calculation differs from sexual compatibility in the number of charts: here there is one, yours, and it describes your desire on its own. Compatibility compares two charts: both people's Venus, Mars and Moon and how they meet. A button in the result carries your details over to the sexual compatibility calculator, and you only add your partner's.

A written reading of your whole chart, and it includes the Sexuality & Desire theme. After sign-in the chart reading is free, covered by the starter bonus, and the opening of the theme is visible right away. One exception: with an unknown birth time on a day when Venus or Mars changed sign, the theme may be left out, and the calculator tells you so. The detailed reading of the theme in eight parts — temperament, hidden fantasies, your type, when desire runs strongest — opens with Plus or Pro.
