Robert Mitchum’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he was

   ☉Sun in Leo, the Bright One

   Generous, loyal and born for a stage of some kind. Wants to be proud of the work and the people around him. Serious from early on: purpose and duty were one thing to him, and he treated his own life as work to be done well.

   The Sun conjunction Saturn (wide at 8.2°)

2. What he needed

   ☽Moon in Aries or Pisces, the Quick Flame

   Feels things fast and hot, and gets over them fast too. Needs action, honesty and room to move.

   For a birth before 7:19 a.m., his Moon was in Pisces.

3. How he loved

   ♀Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

   Shows love through care, help and attention to small things. He loved too much of a good thing: pleasure, praise and grand gestures ran past what one life could use.

   Venus square Jupiter (wide at 3.9°)

4. How he thought

   ☿Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

   Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. A quick, direct mind: he made decisions fast and said what he meant.

   Mercury sextile Mars (almost exact at 0.3°)

5. What drove him

   ♂Mars in Cancer, the Defender

   Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. Concentrated force: when he wanted something, he went after it with everything.

   Mars conjunction Pluto (close at 1.5°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his identity, his discipline and his imagination (the Sun, Saturn and Neptune) gather in Leo, and that part of life drew his attention first. Most of his planets are in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
