Comedian

Andy Samberg

Three planets apiece in fire, air and water, with a single one in earth. Nothing is scarce except the element that would hold a thing in a fixed form, which is a reasonable distribution for a comedian whose early work was built on making something new every week and throwing it away afterwards. Samberg is on record for one long running comedy series.

The Sun sits at twenty five degrees of Leo with Mercury less than a tenth of a degree away, so identity and speech occupy almost exactly the same point in the sign that performs. For somebody whose comedy is delivery rather than material, having those two fused that tightly is close to a technical description. Mercury was retrograde at his birth, which turns the same instrument inward before it is used in public.

Venus, Mars and Pluto group inside six degrees of Libra, which is an unusually tight trio in the sign of the other person. Taste, drive and concentrated force all stationed in the sign of the double act is a legible chart for a performer whose best known work has always been done alongside other people rather than alone. Mars makes a quintile to Jupiter at under three fifths of a degree.

Jupiter finished where it began in Cancer, on 13 June 2026, at forty seven. Cancer is interested in what was kept rather than in ground covered, and four circuits precede it. For a comedian who spent a decade on a sketch programme and then a decade on one sitcom, the keeping is the part the record actually shows. His Moon sits on the opening degree of Pisces at noon and this chart cannot rule out Aquarius, which leaves the private half open between dissolving into a group and standing outside one. Either reading suits somebody whose comedy has always been made with other people rather than alone at a microphone.

Cast your own birth chart

Andy Samberg is alive, so there is one chart here rather than two. The death chart is cast for a documented moment of death and there is nothing to cast one for, which is the point: this site does not estimate either end.
