Kickoff time: Sunday, December 21 • 1:00 PM ET • UTC −5
East Rutherford, NJ (MetLife Stadium)

this one sets up like a Capricorn, “businesslike grind” game where execution and discipline matter more than flash — but with a real chance of one surreal momentum swing that doesn’t feel “earned” in the moment. The Moon in Capricorn riding the MC screams public pressure / coaching narrative / situational football. Meanwhile Sun □ Neptune (tight) and Venus □ Saturn (tight) can manifest as stalled red-zone trips, weird timing, drops, or “why did they call that?” sequences. If it breaks open, it’s more likely late (Moon pulling against Jupiter in the 4th) than early.


Dominants

  • Moon (Angular, 10th, near MC): emotional tempo + momentum narrative is the loudest signal.
  • Saturn (MC ruler): governs the “shape” of the game; here it’s tied into Neptune → fog/oddness.
  • Jupiter (4th house, near the IC zone): late-game expansion, backdoor swings, “suddenly points happen.”
  • Mars (ASC ruler): chart engine / physical will; in Capricorn it’s disciplined, forceful, and strategic.

Dominant vibe: structured intensity + one cloudy/strange sequence + late leverage.


Element + modality (traditional planets)

  • Elements: Earth 3 (Sun/Moon/Mars in Cap) · Fire 2 (Mercury/Venus in Sag) · Water 2 (Jupiter Cancer, Saturn Pisces) · Air 0
    Read:
    low “Air” often correlates with fewer clean-flow finesse moments. More run-game, trenches, clock, field position, and “do your job” football.
  • Modalities: Cardinal 4 · Mutable 3 · Fixed 0
    Read:
    lots of initiations and resets (Cardinal), but not much steady lock-in (Fixed) → momentum can flip if someone lands a punch.

Moon: sign + house

  • Moon in Capricorn, 10th house (orb ~3°36 from MC)
    This is serious, controlled, reputation-driven energy. It favors teams that:
    • win on down-to-down assignment soundness
    • manage clock + field position
    • stay calm when the game tightens

It also spotlights coaching decisions (4th downs, challenges, end-of-half management) as headline makers.


Angular hits (ASC/MC/DSC/IC)

  • Moon near the MC (Cap 18°47 / MC Cap 15°11) → biggest “angular” trigger in the chart.
  • Jupiter in the 4th (Cancer 22°37 / IC Cancer 15°11) → not exact, but still loudly placed: late-game looseness / score-shift potential.
  • Uranus in the 1st (Taurus 28°15) → volatility sitting in the identity/tempo house: a sudden break, odd bounce, surprise conversion, or “how did that happen?”

ASC & DSC rulers

  • ASC Aries 27°53 → Mars rules the ASC.
    Mars in Capricorn (9th)
    : controlled aggression, “play the long game,” win with structure.
    Mars is also tied into the solar engine:
    • Sun ☌ Mars (listed applying) → sharper physical edge, intensity rises as game progresses.
    • Mars □ Neptune (separating) → the “misfire” signature: a busted assignment, miscommunication, slippery timing.
  • DSC Libra 27°53 → Venus rules the DSC.
    Venus in Sagittarius (9th)
    squares both:
    • Venus □ Saturn (0°39) → suppression, containment, “hard yards,” finishing difficulties.
    • Venus □ Neptune (3°06 applying) → variance + illusion: a coverage bust or a wasted opportunity.

Translation: one side can look like it’s about to break it open… then stall. Or vice versa.


MC ruler storyline (how the game “lands”)

  • MC in Capricorn → Saturn rules the MC.
  • Saturn in Pisces (12th) ☌ Neptune (applying)
    This is the core weirdness: fog + friction + hidden factors. In games, it often shows up as:
    • penalties at pivotal times
    • confusion on a key snap
    • injuries/availability vibes
    • “what are we watching?” sequences that swing leverage

But it’s not purely chaos because:

  • Jupiter △ Saturn (separating) → structure can still win; the team that stays composed usually benefits.

Key aspect triggers for “game script”

  • Venus □ Saturn (0°39): finishing suppressed, drives end in FGs/punts, conservative choices.
  • Sun □ Neptune (0°43): uncertainty, misreads, strange bounces, narrative fog.
  • Moon ☍ Jupiter (3°50 applying): push-pull between control (Cap Moon) and emotional/spread expansion (Jupiter). This is a classic “tight… then swings” signature.
  • Saturn ☌ Neptune (3°45 applying): the “mystery meat” moment(s).

House-based notes (old-school predictive feel)

  • 1st house emphasis (Uranus there): an early surprise or an identity-shaping play (turnover, gadget, busted contain).
  • 9th house pile-up (Sun/Venus/Mars): coaching philosophy, “bigger plan,” and special-teams/travel energy. Expect a strategic feel.
  • 4th house Jupiter: late-game scoring elasticity, backdoor cover danger, final-quarter emotional spikes.
  • 12th house Saturn/Neptune: invisible hands — mistakes, officiating influence, or a “nobody saw that coming” disruption.

“Other aspects” (tight minors)

  • Sun ⚻ Uranus (1°52) + Venus ⚻ Uranus (1°57)
    Awkward adjustments: the game may require midstream improvisation — and the team that adapts faster gets rewarded.

Bottom line

This chart leans grindy + disciplined with suppressed flow, but it’s not guaranteed “boring” — it’s more like:
tight structure → one weird swing → late leverage battle.
