You’ll need to map your birth chart online to see whether you have a stellium (the AstroTwins offer a helpful birth chart generator on their website!) to see if you have one. You’ll need the date, time (to the minute), and location of your birth to do so.
When you’ve gathered all of the information you’ll need, plug it into the generator, and you’ll have your birth chart in no time. Determine which of the houses your planets belong to. A stellium is defined as three or more planets snuggled in one home. Then check to see if you have three or more planets in one of the zodiac signs. That, too, is a stellium!

In astrology, what is stellium?
Have you ever felt overly attached to the characteristics of a certain zodiac sign? Were you three times the words on the screen? If this is the case, you may have a stellium in your horoscope. A stellium is a group of planets in astrology that are all in the same zodiac sign or astrological house. Given the uneven speed and pacing of each planet’s revolution in the sky, Stellia aren’t very common. A stellium, on the other hand, isn’t something to be afraid of; rather, knowing what it means can help you better grasp how to deal with its energy throughout your life.
A stellium is made up of how many signs?
A stellium, also known as a satellitium in older types of astrology, is simply a grouping of three (or four, if the moon or sun are included) or more planets in a single sign or house.
Is a stellium placement 3 or 4?
The stellium definition is simple: When your birth chart contains a cluster of the same type of energy, you’ve got some serious stellium astrology going on. This occurs when three or more planets are located in the same zodiac sign or astrological house. Some astrologers believe that a stellium requires at least four planets in the same sign or house, but I believe that three planets will produce the same effect. That’s three planets in total. If the inner planets are involved, the stellium will definitely become more intense (the sun, moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars).
What is the definition of a real stellium?
In the birth chart, a stellium is a grouping of three or more planets. They come together to produce a sort of super planet that acts as a single force. The planets are all in the same zodiac sign in this pattern. It’s commonly believed that we are born with all 12 zodiac signs, but a strong stellium is the most powerful.
Is a stellium an uncommon mineral?
If you’ve ever encountered someone with a powerful personality who appears to have all of the qualities of one sign, they may have been born with a stellium. It may seem terrible, but it is truly unique and quite unusual.
Does stellium count if it’s rising?
A stellium is a grouping of three or more planets that appears in a person’s birth chart. These three planets, plus one, must all be in the same house and sign. These planets may or may not be in conjunction, however this is not usually the case.
Some astrologers disagree with this description, but it is one of the more frequently accepted ideas, and I have found enough evidence in my experience to support the theory that stellium energy is created by three or more planets.
In the example above, you can see that this person has a three-planet stellium in Pisces’ 9th house (Chiron, Mercury, and Neptune) and a four-planet stellium in Pisces’ 10th house (Mars, Moon, Sun, and Venus). Uranus, despite being in the 10th house, is not a member of the stellium because it is in the sign of Aries. Because it is neither a planet nor a luminary, the Midheaven is not included in this stellium.
The Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and Chiron are the only luminaries/planets that make up a stellium. Stelliums do not contain things like the North Node, South Node, Ascendant, Descendant, Midheaven, and so on because they are not physical bodies.
Stelliums reflect the native’s seat of power, as well as a concentrated attention on that house’s location over the native’s lifespan. Whatever sign the stellium is in will be an important component of that person’s personality, representing reasons and themes within the house’s greater lesson.
The absence of stelliums in a chart does not indicate anything undesirable or harmful. It’s fine if many people don’t have them. It simply indicates that there will be greater balance in life themes, rather than a single focus or preoccupation throughout one’s existence.
Stelliums are frequently employed in the study of cultural or mass events. When a stellium appears in the chart during a historical or present event, it indicates that the event is imbued with the energy of that house and sign. We’ll go over that in greater detail in a later piece.
You must look at the house the stellium is in and what that house represents in order to understand how the stellium’s energy will manifest. Houses frequently depict external events in our life, while the sign of the planets in this house depicts how we respond to these events. The 9th and 10th house stelliums of Pisces, for example, imply an emphasis on broad thought, philosophy, and travel (9th house) and economics and stability (10th house), which are handled in a sensitive, dreamy, almost unconscious manner in the sample chart above (Pisces). It will be natural for the native to devote a significant amount of mental energy to speculating on possibilities, and they may even make a career out of it. The stellium of the 10th house shows a propensity for leadership, but as Pisces is the sign of “martyrdom,” the native may take on leadership duties in order to aid others to the point of stress.
Also, keep an eye on which planets are present in the stellium. The presence of some planets, such as Pluto, could imply that the stellium’s energy has a compulsive nature. Neptune could indicate an unconscious aspect, implying that the native is unaware of the stellium’s energy. Uranus will give the stellium’s essence a new twist (i.e. Uranus in a 2nd house stellium will encourage the native to earn money through a unique career). Saturn will teach you lesson after lesson about the theme of the house.
