Okay, so I’ve been digging into this whole “height in astrology” thing, and let me tell you, it’s a rabbit hole. I started off thinking, “Surely there’s gotta be something in the birth chart that shows if you’re gonna be a giant or, well, not.”
My first move? I grabbed my own chart. I’m, like, average height, nothing special. I pored over it, looking at, you know, the usual suspects. Sun sign? Nope. Moon sign? Still nothing. I even checked my rising sign, thinking maybe that had some hidden height secrets. Nada.
Then I thought, “Okay, maybe it’s the houses.” I started checking out the 1st house, since that’s all about the physical body, right? I looked at the ruler of my 1st house, checked its aspects… still drawing blanks. Honestly, I was starting to feel like I was chasing a ghost.

- Checked Sun sign – nothing.
- Checked Moon sign – nothing.
- Checked Rising sign – zip.
- Examined 1st house and its ruler – still no clear answers.
Next, I broadened my search. I started looking at charts of people I know – my super tall friend, my petite cousin, and a bunch of others with varying heights. I was comparing their charts, desperately trying to find some common thread. A specific planet in a certain house? A particular aspect pattern? Anything?
I spent hours, seriously, hours, doing this. Cross-referencing, making notes, the whole nine yards. I even dusted off some old astrology books my grandma gave me, hoping they’d have some ancient wisdom on the subject. They had some interesting stuff, but nothing that definitively screamed, “This is the height indicator!”
My Current (Frustrating) Conclusion
So, after all this, where am I at? Honestly? Still a bit stumped. I haven’t found one single, magical “height” placement in the birth chart. It seems like it’s way more complicated than that. It’s probably a combination of factors, maybe some subtle aspects I’m missing, or maybe even something outside the traditional stuff I was looking at.
It’s more about the overall picture, and maybe, just maybe, genetics play a bigger role than I initially thought!
I’m not giving up, though. This is just the beginning of my investigation. I might try other methods, maybe.
