Paul Newman’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he was

   ☉Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker

   A free mind with a strong sense of fairness. Friendly to everyone and hard to pin down. Self-belief came slowly and had to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counted.

   The Sun square Saturn (wide at 7.5°)

2. What he needed

   ☽Moon in Pisces or Aquarius, the Tide

   Soaks up the feelings around him. Needs gentleness, music and time alone to come back to himself.

   For a birth before 3:46 a.m., his Moon was in Aquarius.

3. How he loved

   ♀Venus in Capricorn, the Loyal Partner

   Loves seriously and steadily. Shows love through commitment and reliability. Loyal in love: he chose carefully, and what he built with people lasted.

   Venus sextile Saturn (close at 1.0°)

4. How he thought

   ☿Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

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

   Mercury sextile Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)

5. What drove him

   ♂Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer

   Bold, fast and ready for a challenge. Charges at a goal and loves the thrill of starting. He worked for ideals: his drive came alive for a cause, a role or a dream.

   Mars trine Neptune (close at 2.2°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his mind, his heart and his optimism (Mercury, Venus and Jupiter) gather in Capricorn, and that part of life drew his attention first. Most of his planets are in water signs: feeling and intuition.
