Astro-twin

Astro-twin

In astrology, an astro-twin is a pair of people that were born on the same day and whose natal chart/horoscope is consequently very similar, even though they may have been born in different places and at different times. The British journalist Tony Barrell is a compiler of astro-twins, and contributed a column to The Sunday Times (UK) from 2005 to 2006 called "Born On The Same Day", which compared and contrasted the lives of famous people with exactly the same birth date – such as Michael Jackson and Lenny Henry, Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln, Margaret Thatcher and Lenny Bruce, and Laura Bush and Robert Mapplethorpe.

Another definition of "astro-twin" posits that an individual is the astro-twin of another person when they share that person's sun, moon, and ascendant, even if they weren't born on the same day.
