Bessie Coleman — birth chart across three traditions
Born: 1892-01-26 (time unknown) · Atlanta, United States
Data source: Rodden X (no recorded time). The Wikipedia biography states the date and town of birth and mentions no hour anywhere on the page.
American aviator, the first Black woman and the first Native American woman to hold a pilot licence, which she earned in France in 1921 after United States flying schools refused to train her. Her birthplace is Atlanta in Cass County, Texas, not the city in Georgia. No time of birth is recorded.
Reading the chart
Aquarius Sun — exact Moon sign unavailable because the birth time is unknown.
Jupiter carries unusual weight here — strong essential dignity (domicile); in its own domicile.
Air is the leading element (33% weighted), while fire is least emphasized — a texture worth noticing, not a verdict.
Mutable modality leads: the chart's default rhythm is adapting — adjusting and redistributing energy.
Sun at 6°18′ Aquarius: core identity, vitality and sense of purpose operates independently, systemically, at an observing distance — the keynote is perspective. In detriment: it works away from home, which often produces adaptive, hard-won skill rather than weakness.
Moon: exact longitude and sign unavailable because the birth time is unknown. Daily interval 262.1047° → 275.3133° (Sagittarius → Capricorn).
Sun square Uranus (orb 0°19′, separating): Sun and Uranus grind productively — friction between these functions builds real capacity when worked.
Sun trine Neptune (orb 0°04′, applying): Sun and Neptune flow — support arrives so easily it can be taken for granted.
Sun trine Pluto (orb 0°41′, applying): Sun and Pluto flow — support arrives so easily it can be taken for granted.
