Sabian Symbols are a set of 360 symbolic images, one for every degree of the zodiac. That means every planet and important point in your birth chart has its own symbol attached to the exact degree where it falls. Your Sun has one. Your Moon has one. Your Ascendant, Venus, Mars, Midheaven, nodes, and the rest of your chart do too.
These symbols add another layer to astrology. Instead of only telling you *where* something is in your chart, they give you an image to sit with—a scene, an idea, a metaphor, or sometimes something that feels oddly specific.
You don’t have to take them literally. Think of them as symbolic prompts. Read the image, notice what stands out to you, and then consider it alongside the planet or point it belongs to. A symbol connected to Venus may speak through love, values, and relationships, while the same kind of symbolism connected to Saturn may show up through responsibility, limits, or growth.
Some symbols will make immediate sense. Others may not click until much later. That’s part of the fun. Choose any placement below to explore its Sabian Symbol and see what that image adds to the story of your chart.

These people deliberately go down where it's dark, cold and under enormous pressure.
You don't do that casually.
This is one of the most Scorpio symbols imaginable. It wants to know what's underneath. Secrets, psychology, motives, trauma, sex, death, mysteries—whatever everybody else is politely avoiding, this degree may be thinking, okay, but what's actually down there?
Going deep is a gift. Living permanently at the bottom of the ocean isn't. Sometimes there really isn't a darker hidden meaning. Occasionally somebody said something weird because they were tired.
Pluto here can be extraordinarily penetrating. Mercury may be a relentless researcher. The Moon can go very deep emotionally. Neptune may be fascinated by mystery and the unconscious. On the MC, psychology, investigation, medicine, research or anything involving material other people don't want to look at could fit beautifully.
Here is what yours can look like.
