Sachin Tendulkar's Birth Chart

Lower in the ranking, Venus keeps coming back: combust (about one chart in 8), Lord of the Geniture (about one chart in 7) and domiciled in Taurus (about one chart in 7). The Moon's detriment in Capricorn (about one chart in 12) and air holding five planets, a share of five or more found in about one chart in 7, close the list.

Astrotheme also rates the hour A, but cites a blog reprint of the same DNA article, adding no second witness. Bombay kept Indian Standard Time, UTC+5:30, and no daylight saving time in 1973.

No other time traces to a record. A 2025 Free Press Journal column nudges the hour to 1:01 PM without explanation, moving no house. AstroSage's 2:25 PM, from an astrology book of untraced basis, lands 3 minutes after Leo stopped rising, turning the chart Virgo rising. Grahaguru prints 4:00 PM, GaneshaSpeaks 4:20 PM and Indastro 4:28 PM, none with a source; 6:01 PM comes from a 2014 blog comment citing a 2005 astrology journal this page could not reach. All of them keep the Capricorn Moon.

Mars holds 20°11′ Aquarius, Saturn 17°44′ Gemini and Uranus, retrograde, 20°28′ Libra: one planet per air sign, every pair in trine, Mars and Uranus within 0°16′. Writers on configurations read a grand trine as easy fluency, sometimes left untested.

Venus, on 7°44′ Taurus, has just passed the Midheaven (9°56′ Taurus) into the 9th house; set the birth 9 minutes earlier and the 10th house claims it. Jupiter, on 10°04′ Aquarius, has likewise dipped below the Descendant into the 6th house; a delivery 6 minutes sooner would lift it into the 7th house, the slimmest margin here. Mercury, in the 9th house, would slide to the 8th house with 10 minutes more on the clock.

No pairing is tighter than Mercury's sextile to Jupiter, 0°07′ off exact; Jupiter square the Midheaven (0°08′) follows, and Venus squares Jupiter by 2°20′. Saturn and the Moon form a quincunx of 0°20′ and mirror each other in declination, the Moon 21°29′ south against Saturn's 21°41′ north, a contraparallel off by 0°11′. No planet is out of bounds.

Out of twelve points, angles included, air claims five, earth four, fire three, water none; fixed signs lead the modes with six. The splash pattern's emptiest stretch, 104°30′ wide, lies between Saturn and Pluto and swallows Cancer, Leo and Virgo, leaving the rising sign untenanted. Element-minded astrologers tie heavy air and missing water to quick reasoning and guarded feeling.

With the Sun 81°40′ high, no plausible error in the hour makes this a night chart; as Leo's ruler the Sun also rules the chart, from the 9th house. In a day chart Jupiter is the benefic in sect, Venus the one out of it; Mars, Jupiter and Saturn all run swiftly.

Venus, 3°45′ from the Sun, is combust in traditional terms, yet Taurus gives it domicile, triplicity and term; it shares the chart's top strength score, 88 of 100, with Jupiter. The Moon trails every planet at 27: in detriment, out of sect and cadent.

David Beckham's chart sits closest in the databank, then those of David Attenborough, Marilyn Monroe and Mark Zuckerberg. Monroe's shares the Leo Ascendant; the others share only the Taurus Sun. No one else in the databank was born on April 24, 1973.

Subtract the Lahiri ayanamsa used in Jyotish, 23°29′, and Tendulkar's Sun sits at 10°29′ Aries, his Moon at 24°35′ Sagittarius, his Ascendant at 17°46′ Cancer. AstroSage's 2:25 PM, Virgo rising in the tropical chart, gives a sidereal Leo rising.

Saturn regained 17°44′ Gemini on June 4, 2002, in a single pass. Jupiter's first homecoming took three passes across a retrograde loop, the first on March 27, 1985; its 4th and latest came on February 1, 2021.

Longitudes are precise astronomical calculations for 7:30 AM Universal Time at 19°01′ N, 72°50′ E, the clinic's mapped position, with Placidus houses. Each rate is the fraction of a simulated 1970s sample, born at random times and places, sharing the feature (method).
