Sabian Symbols — All 360 Degrees
Browse or search all 360 Sabian symbols — the one evocative image traditionally assigned to each zodiac degree, originally recorded by clairvoyant Elsie Wheeler in 1925 — no chart required, useful as a standalone reference or alongside any chart's own planetary degrees.
Each of the 360 symbols is traditionally read as the specific flavor or lesson of that exact degree, distinct from the sign's general 30° meaning — useful on its own for browsing, or cross-referenced against any planet's exact degree in your own chart for a more granular read.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who created the Sabian symbols and when?
They were channeled by clairvoyant Elsie Wheeler in 1925 for astrologer Marc Edmund Jones — one image for each of the 360 degrees of the tropical zodiac.
How do you know which Sabian symbol applies to a planet's exact degree?
By the whole-degree number just above the planet's exact position, not below it — a planet at 4°12' Aries falls under the 5th Aries symbol, not the 4th.
What's the difference between a Sabian symbol and a planet's sign or house meaning?
A sign or house meaning describes a broad 30° slice of the zodiac or a whole area of life; a Sabian symbol is far more specific — tied to the one exact degree a planet occupies.
Do Sabian symbols apply to the Ascendant or house cusps, or only to planets?
Traditionally they apply to any zodiacal degree — angles like the Ascendant and Midheaven, and house cusps, work the same way as a planet's degree.
Are Sabian symbols the same thing as decans?
No — decans split each sign into three fixed 10° bands with a planetary sub-ruler; Sabian symbols give a unique image to every one of the 360 individual degrees, a much finer resolution.
