Jeff Daniels

His ten planets divide four in water, with two apiece in fire, earth and air. Water takes the measure of a thing before committing to it, and nothing else here is scarce. Daniels is an American actor and the record names Dumb and Dumber and The Newsroom, which are a broad farce and a serious drama.

The Sun sits sixteen minutes of arc into Pisces, so Aquarius cannot be ruled out without a birth hour, and the Moon sits late in Capricorn, or Aquarius a few hours on. Pisces takes on whatever is in the room and Aquarius stands outside it. The chart genuinely will not say which of those is the identity, and for an actor whose record holds two parts at opposite ends of the register, that is an honest result rather than a gap.

A grand cross holds the Moon, Mars, Uranus and Neptune, which is the heaviest of the named figures and the one with the least give in it: four planets braced against each other in a closed square. The Moon sits directly opposite Uranus at eleven hundredths of a degree, with effectively nothing between them. Mars makes easy contact with Pluto at under a fifth. Five of the ten planets were retrograde, Mercury and Jupiter among them. For an actor, a closed square across four planets is the equipment that makes a serious part possible for somebody known first for a farce.

By 14 May 2026 Jupiter had returned to its Cancer birth degree, at seventy one, in reverse as it was originally. Cancer counts what came home rather than how far out it went, and five circuits come before it, which few charts live to collect. For a working life that has run between farce and drama without settling on either, what came home is the measure that takes in both. A grand cross with the Moon at one corner of it is where the capacity for the serious register comes from.
