Birth chart of Jim Mertz

Jim Mertz birth chart is shown with zodiac signs, planetary houses, and aspects so it can be read as a complete astrological structure rather than a single Sun sign.

Jim Mertz's chart is framed by Sun in Leo, Moon in Capricorn, and Cancer Rising. These three factors give identity and ego, personal dream, play, childhood image, and first impression before the details.

Chart detail:

Moon opposite Pluto (orb 1.2°) gives a central dynamic in this reading. The orb is very tight; this describes a stable character pattern more than a passing reaction.

In plain terms, this aspect sets the Moon opposite Pluto: personal dream, mother image, or the need to protect can conflict with pressure, control, crisis, sexuality, or invisible power.

Because the birth time is available, houses and angular dominants can be used, with each conclusion tied to a precise chart combination.

How to read this chart

This section gives a concrete reading thread. It highlights the most visible signatures, then the tabs keep each placement separate instead of mixing everything together.

Reading map

Start here: a short reading that shows what hooks, what helps, what pushes back, and where it becomes concrete.

1. Big Three, Personal Essence

Sun in Leo · Moon in Capricorn · Cancer Rising

First hook: this is where the chart often becomes recognizable in real life. Sun in Leo: identity and direction move through presence, pride, creation, and the wish to be seen; Moon in Capricorn: emotional safety looks for structure, ambition, responsibility, and long construction; Cancer Rising: the first way into situations uses memory, protection, belonging, and family sensitivity. Then read the supports, tensions, and houses to see where this base becomes easy, charged, or visible.

2. Dominants (visible planets)

Visible planets: Venus, Pluto, and Moon

Dominants are planets close to the Rising sign, Midheaven, Descendant, or IC. They describe what becomes visible quickly: presence, public role, direct relationship style, or private climate. Every angular dominant found within the orb is listed below.

  • Visible Venus near the Rising sign (orb 0.3°) Venus is close to an angle: its signature shows more easily through first impression, body language, reflexes, and entry style. Here, that highlights desire, taste, relationship, and attraction. It matters most when it repeats in choices, relationships, or visible role.
  • Visible Pluto near the Rising sign (orb 4°) Pluto is close to an angle: its signature shows more easily through first impression, body language, reflexes, and entry style. Here, that highlights crisis, power, survival, and regeneration. It matters most when it repeats in choices, relationships, or visible role.
  • Visible Moon near the Descendant (orb 5.2°) The Moon is close to an angle: its signature shows more easily through direct relationships, partners, opponents, and the way others are met. Here, that highlights personal dream, play, inner child, childhood imprint, mother figure, mother image, optimism, and inner rhythm. It matters most when it repeats in choices, relationships, or visible role.
3. Important harmonious aspects

Harmonious triangle: Moon, Mercury, and Jupiter

This is the easiest door into the chart: it shows what tends to cooperate naturally.

This pattern describes what comes more easily. It shows up mainly through House 6 (work, routines, health, and daily organization), House 3 (speech, learning, and close surroundings), and House 11 (friends, groups, audience, ideologies, political beliefs, and future projects). It connects Moon (emotional needs, instinct, and inner safety), Mercury (thinking, speech, and decisions), and Jupiter (growth, faith, luck, and confidence in the future).

This is the clearest cooperation pattern in the chart: Moon trine Mercury (orb 2.4°), Moon trine Jupiter (orb 2.4°), and Mercury trine Jupiter (orb 4.8°). It shows where functions support each other, recover, or come naturally when used together. Because several planets are connected, the full pattern matters more than one isolated aspect.

  • Harmony Moon trine Mercury (orb 2.4°) Trine: Moon in Capricorn in House 6 can support Mercury in Virgo in House 3 naturally and positively. For this pair, the aspect gives natural support between memory, personal dream, and intellect: words can give clear form to the inner child. Mother-image layer: childhood, mother image, and inner child are supported by Mercury.
  • Harmony Moon trine Jupiter (orb 2.4°) Trine: Moon in Capricorn in House 6 can support Jupiter in Taurus in House 11 naturally and positively. For this pair, the aspect gives natural support between personal dream, optimism, and fulfillment: confidence feeds the inner child instead of crushing it. Mother-image layer: childhood, mother image, and inner child are supported by Jupiter.
  • Harmony Mercury trine Jupiter (orb 4.8°) Trine: Mercury in Virgo in House 3 can support Jupiter in Taurus in House 11 naturally and positively. For this pair, the aspect gives structural ease linking intellectual precision with a larger vision: teaching, storytelling, or making an idea feel bigger can come naturally.
4. Important tensions

Tension circuit: Moon, Venus, Pluto, and Mars

This is the pressure line to read first: it shows where tension repeats in concrete situations.

This pattern shows where pressure builds fastest. It shows up mainly through House 12 (private time, solitude, retreat, and hidden pressure), House 6 (work, routines, health, and daily organization), and House 4 (home, family, and private life). It connects Moon (emotional needs, instinct, and inner safety), Venus (attraction, pleasure, taste, and relationships), Pluto (power, crisis, intensity, and deep transformation), and Mars (action, anger, desire, and courage).

This is the clearest friction pattern in the chart: Moon opposite Pluto (orb 1.2°), Moon opposite Venus (orb 4.8°), and Venus square Mars (orb 3.5°). It shows where pressure, contradiction, or repeated effort concentrates. Because several planets are connected, the full pattern matters more than one isolated aspect.

  • Tension Moon opposite Pluto (orb 1.2°) Opposition in real life: The house conflict is between House 6 (daily work, technique, and bodily discipline) and House 12 (retreat, contemplation, long time, and possible confinement); pressure in one field tends to reactivate the other. For this pair, the aspect sets the Moon opposite Pluto: personal dream, mother image, or the need to protect can conflict with pressure, control, crisis, sexuality, or invisible power.
  • Tension Moon opposite Venus (orb 4.8°) Opposition in real life: The house conflict is between House 6 (daily work, technique, and bodily discipline) and House 12 (retreat, contemplation, long time, and possible confinement); pressure in one field tends to reactivate the other. For this pair, the aspect sets personal dream, childhood imprint, or mother image against desire, love, pleasure, or the image of attraction.
  • Tension Venus square Mars (orb 3.5°) Square in real life: House 12 (retreat, contemplation, long time, and possible confinement) is in friction with House 4 (roots, privacy, and inner foundation); this can create blockage, inhibition, overreaction, or repeated conflict between the two fields. For this pair, the aspect creates tension between attraction, pleasure, empathy, and direct action: the person may alternate between seducing, appreciating the other, attacking, desiring, or turning relationship into a power struggle.
5. Important houses

These houses answer the concrete question: where in life does the chart become visible? Look here for the repeated choices, relationships, work, or crises that make the rest of the chart real.

  • House 2: Sun and Neptune resources, values, and security.
  • House 6: Moon daily work, technique, and bodily discipline.
  • House 12: Venus and Pluto retreat, contemplation, long time, and possible confinement.

The three foundations

Start from the three base placements below: the Sun gives identity, ego, and father image; the Moon gives personal dream, play, childhood imprint, mother image, and the inner child; the Rising sign gives first impression, body language, and entry style. Then dominant planets and exact aspects show what carries the most weight.

Dominant layer: Venus near the Rising sign (orb 0.3°) is close enough to an angle to color what other people perceive. Venus (desire, taste, relationship, and attraction) is most visible through first impression, body language, reflexes, and entry style.

Jim Mertz has Sun in Leo, in the House 2

How to read this placement

Sun in Leo in House 2 is one concrete combination: the Sun gives identity, ego, father figure, visibility, and direction, the Leo style gives presence, pride, creation, and the wish to be seen, and House 2 gives the life field: resources, values, and security.

More about this placement

Concretely, this placement brings identity, ego, father figure, recognition, and personal direction into personal money, possessions, security needs, and value choices. House 2 (resources, values, and security) gives the field; exact aspects show whether the planet is supported, blocked, fused, or contradicted.

Aspect connected to this placement: Sun opposite Uranus (orb 0.4°). Aspect effect: opposes identity to the need for rupture or immediate freedom.

With the Sun in Leo, identity forms through creative presence, pride, generosity, and the wish to radiate something personal. The person often needs to feel seen for what they create, lead, love, or perform. This placement can give warmth, loyalty, courage, dramatic instinct, and a natural sense of style. It is not only vanity; it is the need to put the heart into visible form. When unbalanced, the person may depend too much on applause or turn vulnerability into performance.
Other charts with Sun in Leo

Ryan Garcia , Patrick Swayze , Jason Statham , Jennifer Lopez , Kristen Wiig

In the 2nd house, the Sun puts identity into value, money, possessions, skills, voice, and tangible security. The person often needs to build something concrete to feel solid: a craft, a resource, a body of work, savings, or a stable way of living. Self-confidence grows when they can trust their own means and define what is truly worth keeping. At best, this gives patience, productive pride, and a strong sense of personal value. Under stress, the ego can become too tied to income, comfort, appearance, or the fear of not having enough.

    Sun opposite Uranus      95.23% · orb 0.4° (dissonant/powerful)

    Sun opposite Uranus (orb 0.4°) puts the two planets face to face, with visible back-and-forth or tension. The orb is extremely tight; this aspect is one of the chart's strongest signals.

    Here, Sun in Leo in House 2 brings identity, ego, father figure, visibility, and direction into House 2 (resources, values, and security), with Leo style (presence, pride, creation, and the wish to be seen); Uranus in Aquarius in House 8 brings disruption, independence, and change into House 8 (sexuality, shared power, crisis, and invisible bonds), with Aquarius style (independence, networks, distance, and collective change).

    Concrete conflict: this aspect opposes identity to the need for rupture or immediate freedom. The house conflict is between House 2 (resources, values, and security) and House 8 (sexuality, shared power, crisis, and invisible bonds); pressure in one field tends to reactivate the other.



Jim Mertz has Moon in Capricorn, in the House 6

How to read this placement

Moon in Capricorn in House 6 is one concrete combination: the Moon gives personal dream, play, inner child, childhood imprint, mother figure, mother image, optimism, and inner rhythm, the Capricorn style gives structure, ambition, responsibility, and long construction, and House 6 gives the life field: daily work, technique, and bodily discipline.

More about this placement

Concretely, this placement brings personal dream, play instinct, inner child, childhood imprint, mother figure, mother image, optimism, and inner rhythm into daily work, technical gestures, habits, and bodily discipline. House 6 (daily work, technique, and bodily discipline) gives the field; exact aspects show whether the planet is supported, blocked, fused, or contradicted.

Aspect connected to this placement: Moon opposite Pluto (orb 1.2°). Aspect effect: sets the Moon opposite Pluto: personal dream, mother image, or the need to protect can conflict with pressure, control, crisis, sexuality, or invisible power.

Visible angle: Moon near the Descendant (orb 5.2°) touches an angle; this placement is easier to notice through direct relationships, partners, opponents, and the way others are met.

With the Moon in Capricorn, the inner child learns confidence through structure, competence, duty, and the ability to hold steady under pressure. The personal dream often has to become real: work, mastery, status, responsibility, and long construction matter more than vague wishing. This Moon can give endurance, loyalty, patience, and a strong instinct to build something safe over time. The mother image or childhood imprint may be linked to seriousness, distance, responsibility, or growing up early. When burdened, it can become guarded, overly hard on itself, or afraid to depend on others.
Other charts with Moon in Capricorn

Sydney Sweeney , Dwayne Johnson , Ryan Gosling , JoJo Siwa , Adolf Hitler

In the 6th house, the Moon brings personal dream, inner child, and childhood imprint into work, routine, service, health, care, and daily usefulness. The person's mood is often linked to the state of their body, schedule, tools, and immediate responsibilities. The inner child feels safer when life is organized and when small acts of care repeat reliably. At best, this gives practical kindness, sensitivity to needs, and an ability to make the dream function useful in daily life. Under stress, it can become worry, emotional overwork, bodily tension, or the feeling that one must be useful to deserve care.

Other charts with Venus in Cancer

O. J. Simpson , Nicole Brown Simpson , Donald Trump , Ryan Garcia , Ron Goldman

In the 12th house, Venus puts attraction and pleasure into solitude, retreat, contemplation, hidden love, private imagination, and long background processes. Love may be quiet, secret, sacrificial, spiritual, artistic, or difficult to explain directly. The person may need beauty away from noise and may be moved by compassion, music, silence, or private longing. At best, this gives subtle affection, artistic depth, tenderness toward suffering, and love that does not need constant display. Under stress, it can become hidden relationships, impossible longing, self-sacrifice, avoidance of real desire, or confinement inside a private fantasy.

The person may defend family fiercely, need control over their private space, or carry conflict from the early environment into adult reactions. Action is not always public here; it often comes out when safety, territory, or belonging is touched. At best, this gives protective courage, private strength, and the energy to build or defend a home. Under stress, it can become domestic conflict, anger stored inside, impatience with vulnerability, or fighting old family battles in the present.
