02 / Calculated

Seven Placements at a Glance

The values below come from the displayed birth inputs. They are calculations, not biographical evidence.

Opening Layer / Sun

Pisces The individual

Repeated Sign

Pisces 4 of 7 placements

Leading Element

Water 6 of 7 placements

Deepest Layer / Saturn

Pisces Maternal 4th great-grandmother

CALCULATION NOTE

This Is a Date-Level Reading

No birth time is used. Horospire calculates the day-level positions and does not claim an Ascendant. The Moon is the time-sensitive layer, especially when its label spans a sign boundary.

03 / Interpreted

Seven Symbolic Layers

Each line combines a calculated placement with Horospire's modern maternal-line vocabulary. It does not describe verified family history and does not explain Kurt Cobain's life.

1st / 01

Sun / The individual

Sun in Pisces

Water Mutable

This layer pairs the individual with Pisces. In Horospire's symbolic vocabulary, Pisces points to imagination, empathy, and porous boundaries.

2nd / 02

Moon / Mother

Moon in Gemini/Cancer

Air Mutable

This layer pairs mother with Gemini/Cancer. In Horospire's symbolic vocabulary, Gemini points to curiosity, exchange, and adaptability.

Time note: the Moon moves quickly, so a missing hour reduces precision. A split sign label keeps that uncertainty visible.

3rd / 03

Mercury / Maternal grandmother

Mercury in Pisces

Water Mutable

This layer pairs maternal grandmother with Pisces. In Horospire's symbolic vocabulary, Pisces points to imagination, empathy, and porous boundaries.

4th / 04

Venus / Maternal great-grandmother

Venus in Pisces

Water Mutable

This layer pairs maternal great-grandmother with Pisces. In Horospire's symbolic vocabulary, Pisces points to imagination, empathy, and porous boundaries.

5th / 05

Mars / Maternal great-great-grandmother

Mars in Scorpio

Water Fixed

This layer pairs maternal great-great-grandmother with Scorpio. In Horospire's symbolic vocabulary, Scorpio points to depth, privacy, and renewal.

6th / 06

Jupiter / Maternal 3rd great-grandmother

Jupiter in Cancer

Water Cardinal

This layer pairs maternal 3rd great-grandmother with Cancer. In Horospire's symbolic vocabulary, Cancer points to memory, protection, and belonging.

7th / 07

Saturn / Maternal 4th great-grandmother

Saturn in Pisces

Water Mutable

This layer pairs maternal 4th great-grandmother with Pisces. In Horospire's symbolic vocabulary, Pisces points to imagination, empathy, and porous boundaries.

Questions

About This Profile

How precise is Kurt Cobain's birth data on this page?
The linked biography reports the birth date and place. This dataset leaves the time blank, so Horospire treats the Moon as date-level data.
What is calculated and what is interpreted?
The seven planet-to-sign placements are calculated from the displayed birth inputs. Horospire then applies its own modern maternal-line framework as a symbolic interpretation. The interpretation is not a verified fact about Kurt Cobain's family or life.
Does this reading explain Kurt Cobain's achievements or experiences?
No. The biography establishes public context, while the chart is a separate symbolic reading. It does not explain ability, personality, health, suffering, relationships, or historical events.
Where can I read more about Kurt Cobain?
Use the visible Wikipedia and Wikidata links in the Sources and Limits section. When this dataset includes a timed source, that record is linked there as well.
