Hi dear friends,

I'd like to know what could possibly point to an average / short height, especially in a man's chart. I mean under 170 cm (that's like 5'6" or 5'7", I think).

My guess would be something related to Saturn and/or Neptune, but I'm not sure.

Would like some input, please!

Supposedly lots of mercury influence (probably in regards to the first house or ascendant) can cause this.

Where did you read that?
It's the other way around.. Mercury adds to the height. Gemini ascendants are usually quite tall (I am), same for Mercury on the ASC.

Gem guys usually are above average. Im a gemini asc with mercury conjunct asc. Im taller than my entire family (6'2)
I noticed Saturn usually gives awkwardly tall height or shortness.
I noticed aries risings or mars rising are kinda short.

It's just that I know someone who is heavily Gemini/Sag and they are short.. so I'm wondering what in their chart could possibly counter-balance all that Gem/Sag polarity which is usually present in people who are taller than average.

I'm 5'1 1/2 and done growing according to my pediatrician who estimated that I'd only grow to be my mom's height when I was younger. At 17 and almost 6 months I think it's safe to say he was right since I'm only a measly half inch taller than my mom lol


Not sure what would indicate this in my chart though, I have a cancer ascendant that squares my mercury at 4 degrees - my mercury is in my 4th house. I also have my leo moon in the 1st. Nothing really sag/gem dominate however, the only planet I have in either sign is my sag jupiter.

I'm five feet, eight inches and I am mars rising like someone mentioned. I am Pisces rising which is said to be average to below average height.

I read it in a Vedic astrology book a while back, but it didn't really get into detail about it.

Remember Cancer risings would often become gemini risings! Anything less than 23 degrees will change signs according to the Vedic method.
My vedic asc becomes taurus

I think Cancer and Mars on the Asc makes people short.

I think I've read that Taurus ASC people have a tendency to be on the shorter side.

I have Taurus ASC and I'm only 4' 11".

Thanks for the replies so far, guys!

Yeah I agree with most of you.

Cancer & Taurus ASC are more "prone" to shortness..

Not sure about Aries / Mars though? Could be!


Sun opposite Pluto?! Haha never heard about that one. Hm.. I think Saturn & Neptune.. really. But yeah there are many factors. Like Moon on ASC could make someone short even in Sag, for example (speculating, here).

And Uranus on ASC would add height, I'm pretty sure about that..
