Roberta Flack’s birth chart

Roberta Flack's full reading

Each planet by sign. First-draft readings in the StarMap voice, reviewed by our consulting astrologer before launch.

1. ☉Sun in Aquarius

   ♒ 21° Aquarius 34'

   purpose and vitality

   Their purpose is tied to being useful to a group or an idea bigger than themselves, and their vitality rises around causes and communities. The tension is detaching from their own needs while championing everyone else's. It shows up as being the reliable one at meetings and the hardest person to reach one on one.

2. ☽Moon in Aquarius

   ♒ 13° Aquarius 54'

   needs and habits

   They proces daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and they need a degree of independence built into any close relationship. The tension is intellectualising a feeling instead of simply having it. It shows up as needing time alone to recover even after a good day with people.

3. ☿Mercury in Capricorn

   ♑ 26° Capricorn 04'

   mind and voice

   They think methodically and communicate in a measured, practical way that people tend to trust. The tension is being so focused on the useful conclusion that they dismis ideas that have not yet proven their worth. It shows up as getting straight to the point in a conversation that other people expected to be casual.

4. ♀Venus in Aries

   ♈ 8° Aries 17'

   love and values

   They love with immediacy and pursue what they want without much hesitation, and they value a partner who can keep up. The tension is losing interest once the chase is over. It shows up as falling for someone fast and needing the relationship to keep feeling like a choice, not a routine.

5. ♂Mars in Scorpio

   ♏ 18° Scorpio 05'

   drive and anger

   They act with focus and intensity, and their anger, when it surfaces, is controlled, cutting and hard to forget. The tension is holding onto a grievance well past its useful life. It shows up as a calm exterior that gives little warning before a genuinely sharp response.

6. ♃Jupiter in Capricorn

   ♑ 15° Capricorn 49'

   growth and excess

   They grow through long-term discipline, and their gains tend to arrive later than they would like but tend to hold once they do. The overreach is taking on more responsibility than any one person should reasonably carry. It shows up as a slow, earned authority that people trust more the longer they know they.

7. ♄Saturn in Pisces

   ♓ 21° Pisces 11'

   discipline and doubt

   They build discipline around boundaries, often after an early habit of taking on more feeling than was ever theirs to carry. The doubt shows up as guilt for protecting their own time and energy. It shows up as a quiet, mature compassion that arrives once they learn that a boundary and a closed heart are not the same thing.

8. ♅Uranus in Taurus

   ♉ 5° Taurus 57'

   freedom, generational

   Shared by everyone born across this generation, this placement marks people who reinvent ideas of money, land and security, often through technology that unsettles older systems of ownership. Personally, it can show up as a discomfort with financial norms their parents took for granted.

9. ♆Neptune in Virgo

   ♍ 18° Virgo 17' ℞

   imagination, generational

   Shared across this generational span, this placement marks people whose collective imagination turns toward healing, service and idealised routines of self-improvement. Personally, it can show up as chasing an impossibly perfect daily practice.

10. ♇Pluto in Cancer

    ♋ 27° Cancer 08' ℞

    power, generational

    Shared across this generation, this placement marks people who live through deep transformation of family, home and nationhood. Personally, it can show up as intensity around questions of belonging and who counts as family.

Aspects

How the planets in Roberta Flack's chart talk to each other, tightest first.

1. Mars sextile Neptune

   0.2° applying

   Their drive and their imagination cooperate gently, giving they easy access to inspired action without needing everything to be fully mapped out first. This is soft, workable motivation that keeps a creative or compassionate project moving without forcing it.

2. Mercury opposition Pluto

   1.1° applying

   They feel a pull between their own conclusions and other people's attempts to control the narrative, which can turn a disagreement into a deeper power struggle. Staying with the actual argument, rather than the fight for control, resolves more.

3. Mars sextile Jupiter

   2.3° separating

   Their drive and their optimism cooperate easily, giving they confident, well-aimed energy without much wasted effort. Taking initiative tends to pay off for they, especially when they commit to one goal instead of scattering their energy across several.

4. Jupiter trine Neptune

   2.5° applying

   Their optimism and their imagination flow together with real ease, giving they an inspired, generous vision of what is possible. Faith and creativity tend to serve they well without much friction, especially when they let both guide a project rather than second-guessing either one.
