Noon, quoted by Frederick Davies
The Astro-Databank note reads: "Frederick Davies quotes him in "Signs of the Stars."" The hour is his own, passed on by an astrologer, and the database files it under A, its mark for a time recalled from memory.
Astro-Databank lists the clock as British Summer Time, an hour ahead of Greenwich. Beside noon the table lists the hour before and the hour after, for comparison only; neither comes from a source.

Sun at the end of Aries, square Mars
The Sun at 28°47′ of Aries sits in the last degrees of the sign and leaves for Taurus 1.25 days after the birth. The tradition reads such a Sun as an Aries drive already looking toward what comes next. Placidus puts it in the 10th house and Whole Sign in the 9th, while Mercury at 1°57′ of Aries falls in the 9th either way.
Mars at 28°33′ of Cancer squares the Sun, 0°14′ off, tied for the nearest to exact. A square between cardinal signs suggests friction that keeps pushing toward action.

A Sagittarius Moon, trine Mercury
The Moon entered Sagittarius at 8:30 a.m., 3.5 hours before the recorded noon, and at 1°43′ it occupies the 5th house, the same in Placidus and Whole Sign. Sagittarius, the fire sign of range, sits in the 5th, the traditional house of play and creative display.
The Moon trines Mercury, 0°14′ from exact, level with the Sun and Mars for nearest to exact. Fire meets fire here, which suggests mood and speech running smoothly together.

Leo in the east, Pluto in the 1st house
Leo held the Cheshire horizon from 11:34 a.m. until 2:27 p.m., and the birth falls 26 minutes after it arrived. Leo rising suggests a bright, noticeable first impression, and its ruler, the Sun, stands in fire sign Aries.
Pluto, retrograde at 9°26′ of Leo, lies 4°43′ beyond the ascendant and fills the 1st house under either system. The tradition ties a planet there to a presence that is hard to miss.

Venus in its own sign, high in the chart
Venus at 17°45′ of Taurus rules the sign it occupies and is placed in the 10th house by both systems, the area the tradition gives to public standing. Saturn sextiles it, 1°01′ off.
The midheaven is 10°16′ Aries, with Aries there from 11:23 a.m. to 1:13 p.m. Placidus seats the Sun beside Venus in the 10th, while Whole Sign shifts the Sun back to the 9th.

Six cardinal planets, Mars and Saturn in the 12th
Six of the ten planets sit in cardinal signs: Sun and Mercury in Aries, Mars and Saturn in Cancer, Jupiter and Neptune in Libra. Cardinal signs begin things, so a weighting this heavy suggests initiative.
Mars at 28°33′ and Saturn at 18°46′ of Cancer both sit in the 12th house, which the tradition links with hidden effort. Neptune at 6°40′ of Libra lies 3°36′ short of the IC.
