Actor

Sam Elliott

His chart puts four planets in fire signs, three in earth, two in air and a single one in water. Fire performs and earth keeps at it; the element that would register how any of it feels is nearly absent. Elliott is an American actor and the record names the nomination he received for A Star Is Born.

The Sun sits at seventeen degrees of Leo with Venus on the final degree of the same sign, and Mercury, Mars and Jupiter group across fifteen degrees of Virgo. Leo takes the room and Virgo gets the detail right. The Moon sits on the final twelve minutes of Aries, as close to leaving a sign as this project finds a planet, so Taurus cannot be ruled out without a birth hour. For an actor, that is a chart split between wanting the room and getting the detail right.

The Sun sits in mild friction with Neptune at under a third of a degree, identity rubbing against the planet of image, and the Moon stands at a strained angle to Mercury at two fifths. Mars makes an easy skill of its contact with Saturn at under half, drive and discipline on effortless terms. Not one of his ten planets was retrograde at his birth, and in an actor whose record names a single late nomination out of a long career, that undivided quality is the reading worth having.

Jupiter stood again on its Virgo birth degree on 25 August 2015, at seventy one. Virgo asks whether the work was any good, which is not the same question as whether it was noticed, and five circuits come before it, which few charts live to collect. For a career that collected its named recognition decades in, those two questions have different answers. A Moon twelve minutes from the end of Aries is the detail to keep from this one, with Venus a degree from the end of Leo behind it: two placements about to tip into the next sign, in a chart that otherwise holds its ground entirely. Four planets in fire and one in water is the structure of somebody who carried presence rather than vulnerability for most of a working life.

Cast your own birth chart

Sam Elliott 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.
