Sigmund Freud: birth chart

Neurologist, founder of psychoanalysis

There is no documented birth time, so this page has no rising sign and no houses, and the Moon is given as a range for the day. The Sun and the planets are placed for noon, local time; Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars can differ by up to about a degree from the true moment.

This region had not yet adopted a standard time zone on this date; the offset used is local mean time (LMT) derived from the birthplace's own longitude.

Timezone records for this place before 1970 are uncertain, so any clock time on this page may be off. The rising sign and the time a body changes sign depend on it.

What these placements mean in general

These are the general texts for each placement, built from the traditional meanings of the body and the sign. They are the same on every chart that has the placement and do not describe the person on this page.

Sun in Taurus

Sun is associated with identity, vitality, purpose, will, recognition. Taurus is traditionally associated with building slowly toward something that can be kept, and with resisting being hurried.

Moon in Gemini

Moon is associated with feeling, need, habit, memory, care. Gemini is traditionally associated with taking in more information than can be acted on and sorting it out loud.

A chart describes positions in the sky at one moment and place. It does not describe a person's character or life, and nothing on this page says it does.
