Hayao Miyazaki’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he is

   ☉Sun in Capricorn, the Architect

   Patient and determined. Plays the long game, earns respect slowly, and grows warmer and more playful with the years. His mind and his identity are close together: he speaks as he thinks, and his ideas are part of who he is.

   The Sun conjunction Mercury (wide at 3.8°)

2. What he needs

   ☽Moon in Aries, the Quick Flame

   Feels in bursts, honestly and all at once. Hates sitting still with a mood, and needs a way to act on it. His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.

   The Moon square Mercury (close at 1.0°)

3. How he loves

   ♀Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

   Loves openly and with good humour. Needs freedom, honesty and someone to explore the world with.

4. How he thinks

   ☿Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

   Thinks practically and plans ahead. Speaks with authority and a dry sense of humour. A patient, exact mind: he chooses every word, and his thinking gets sharper with practice.

   Mercury trine Saturn (close at 2.7°)

5. What drives him

   ♂Mars in Sagittarius or Scorpio, the Champion

   Energetic and bold, driven by belief. Aims high and sets off with enthusiasm. He works for ideals: his drive comes alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

   Mars sextile Neptune (close at 2.5°) · For a birth before 4:43 a.m., his Mars was in Scorpio.

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his optimism, his discipline and his independence (Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life draws his attention first. No air at all, so stepping back to talk a thing through takes deliberate effort.
