Virat Kohli's Birth Chart

The Moon began the date at 18°53′ Virgo and entered Libra at 10:33:51 PM, so a birth in the first 22 hours 33 minutes gives Kohli a Virgo Moon and only one in the last 1 hour 26 minutes a Libra one. A change of sign on the birth date occurs in about 44% of charts born in the 1980s; this one came late in the evening, leaving Virgo with 94% of the clock.

Leo was rising at midnight and again from 10:42 PM, with the other eleven signs in between, so no planet can be placed in a house. Scorpio and Leo held the horizon longest, 2 hours 20 minutes each; Pisces and Aries passed in 1 hour 25 minutes. The Sun came up at 6:36 AM with Scorpio rising and went down at 5:33 PM with Taurus rising; only a birth between those moments gives a day chart. AstroSage's unadopted 10:28 AM lands 10 minutes into the Capricorn window that opened at 10:17 AM, with Sagittarius on the horizon from 8:00 AM until then.

None of the eight ranked features needs the hour. Their shares of simulated 1980s births, in rank order: Mars near a station (about one chart in 13); Venus in either sign it rules (about one chart in 7); a Moon changing sign during the birth date (about 44%); Jupiter in either sign of its detriment (about one chart in 6); Mars in either of its own signs (about one chart in 5); any planet from the Sun to Saturn in a sign's last degree, here Saturn (about one chart in 5), or in its first degree, here Mars (about one chart in 4); and Jupiter retrograde (about 31%). No other planet fills as many places as Mars.

Mars stayed between 0°14′ Aries and 0°21′ Aries, gathering speed after its station; traditional astrology gives it Aries as a home. Venus, moving from 7°00′ Libra to 8°13′, was likewise in a sign it rules, and the pair stood in a wide opposition. Jupiter, retrograde from 3°27′ Gemini back to 3°19′, sat opposite its own Sagittarius, a placement the essential dignities calculator scores as detriment.

Saturn, at 29°21′ Sagittarius by the close, was about seven days from Capricorn at that day's pace, with Uranus 0°45′ behind it and out of bounds at a declination of 23°38′ south. Mercury, moving swiftly, slipped under the Sun's beams in the evening. Pluto, in Scorpio, a sign modern astrologers give it, lay 0°02′ from the Sun as the date opened.

All day, ten major aspects held. Venus square Neptune and Mercury sextile Uranus each went exact within the date, and the Sun–Pluto conjunction, exact shortly before it, widened to 1°00′; modern practice links that pairing with intensity and control. Mars squares Saturn and Uranus by degree, though Aries and Sagittarius are a trine apart by sign. Another seven aspects, five of them the Moon's, depend on the missing hour.

The nearest charts among the databank's pages are those of Pablo Picasso, Shah Rukh Khan, Marie Curie and Bill Gates, and the link is thin: all four share only the Sun in Scorpio with Kohli, and Curie's chart adds one more listed match, Sun within 2° of each other. Nobody in the roster shares his birth date.

With the Lahiri ayanamsa of 23°42′, the sidereal reckoning used in Jyotish drops the Sun, Venus, Mars and Jupiter back one sign each, to Libra, Virgo, Pisces and Taurus. Jyotish treats two of those placements, Libra for the Sun and Virgo for Venus, as debilitated, the reverse of Venus's standing in the tropical chart. The sidereal Moon is Leo for about the first 9 hours 46 minutes of the date, then Virgo.

Saturn returned to its birth degree once, on December 14, 2017. The first Jupiter homecoming came in three crossings, forward on July 17, 2000, backward on December 19, 2000 and forward again on March 3, 2001; the second and third, on June 26, 2012 and June 9, 2024, took a single crossing apiece.

Figures come from precise astronomical calculations for Delhi's two midnights around the date, at Wikidata's city coordinates, 28°40′ N, 77°13′ E, since no hospital is recorded. Aspects were sampled every 10 minutes of the local date. Rates compare simulated 1980s births worldwide.
