Leo Sun · Moon in Taurus or Gemini
Akira Nozawa’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
15 August 1914 was a Saturday: the day Akira Nozawa was born in Hiroshima, Japan. Their zodiac sign was Leo. The Moon was in Taurus until about 05:05 and in Gemini afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Akira died on 13 May 2000, aged 85. StarMap has no verified birth time for Akira, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
Air carries the most weight: five of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, against fire two, water two and earth none. By modality the count is four cardinal, four fixed and one mutable. The tightest aspect is Mars square Saturn, about 1.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Jupiter and Uranus were retrograde. Over the course of the day the Moon went from last quarter to waning crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 18 other people born on 15 August, among them Jennifer Lawrence, Ben Affleck and Melinda French Gates.

Akira Nozawa’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 21° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Akira Nozawa that suggests warmth, generosity and a need to be seen for who they really are, running through much of what they do. This placement grows by learning that the light is not diminished when it is shared.
Moon sign
Taurus or Gemini
Taurus until about 05:05, then Gemini (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 05:05: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon feels through the body and its surroundings. On this reading, good food, familiar places and slow evenings are what restore Akira, and sudden change lands hard. Once they feel safe, they can be the steadiest person in the room.
Born after about 05:05: Moon in Gemini
The Moon in Gemini processes feeling by naming it. For Akira, talking, writing and switching perspective are likely ways to settle, and silence can make small worries loud. They probably need people who let them think out loud.
Rising sign
The rising sign changes about every two hours, so it cannot be known without a birth time. The table below shows which sign was rising over Hiroshima, Japan, at each hour of the day.
Akira Nozawa’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Akira yet. It shows a birth time only when Astro-Databank rates it AA, A or B on the Rodden scale (AA from a birth certificate or record, A from the person, someone close to them or a news report, B from a biography). Until then, this is the rising sign for every possible time of birth on 15 August 1914, computed for Hiroshima, Japan.

Akira Nozawa’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Akira Nozawa’s private life.
Purpose for Akira Nozawa is probably tied to creating and being seen doing it, and a Leo Sun's vitality rises the moment there is an audience, even an audience of one. The tension is losing steam when no one is watching. The giveaway is often the extra effort that goes into something the moment someone notices them making it.
Moon in Taurus or Gemini
Taurus until about 05:05, then Gemini
needs and habits
Born before about 05:05: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon needs routine, familiar food and physical comfort to feel steady from day to day. A sudden change of schedule probably unsettles Akira more than they let on. A good bed, a favourite mug or the same coffee order can turn an unsteady morning around.
Born after about 05:05: Moon in Gemini
The Moon in Gemini runs its daily habits on conversation and mental stimulation, and Akira is likely to settle by talking a worry through rather than sitting with it quietly. A day with no one to talk to can leave them restless. The habit is to message a friend the moment something comes to mind, before deciding what to think about it.
Mercury in Leo gives Akira a mind that thinks in confident, story-shaped terms and communicates with warmth and a bit of flair, drawing people in even when the subject is dry. Attachment to being right can make Akira more persuasive than accurate. A simple update, in their hands, can become something closer to a performance.
Venus in Libra loves with an instinct for balance and partnership, and Akira probably values harmony, fairness and someone who makes an effort to look good together. The risk with this Venus is staying in a relationship for the sake of the pairing itself. Akira may give up a personal preference before anyone has even asked.
In Akira's chart, Mars in Libra acts diplomatically and prefers negotiation to confrontation, and its anger tends to stay buried until it is too big to ignore. Avoided consistently, conflict leaves resentment building underneath the calm surface. The pattern is saying yes to something that rankled, then feeling it later.
Jupiter in Aquarius
16° Aquarius 47' at midday ℞
growth and excess
Jupiter in Aquarius grows through community, ideas and causes bigger than one life. Akira may put so much trust in a theory or a group that its practical flaws are overlooked. Optimism about the future can make them a natural organiser of other people's efforts.
Saturn in Gemini builds discipline around clear expression, and it often begins with doubt about whether an idea is good enough to say out loud. For Akira that would mean overpreparing before speaking or writing anything. Once the self-consciousness eases, the result can be someone unusually precise and credible with words.
Uranus in Aquarius
9° Aquarius 09' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus is at home in Aquarius, and many people born in the years around Akira's birth have it too. The generation is defined by rapid technological and social change within a single lifetime. One person's share of it is an unusually easy relationship with disruption and reinvention.
Neptune in Cancer
28° Cancer 50' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Cancer is shared by Akira and many people born in the same decade or so. The generation idealises home and family, often carrying a wider nostalgia for a version of belonging that may never quite have existed. Personally it can be a soft-focus longing for a childhood home.
Pluto in Cancer
1° Cancer 47' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Akira to an era rather than describing one person. Those born in it live through deep transformation of family, home and nationhood. What an individual may carry is intensity around belonging and who counts as family.
Aspects in Akira Nozawa’s chart
How the planets stand to each other, tightest first. Without a birth time the orbs are those at midday, and aspects to the Moon are left out because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day.
Mars square Saturn
about 1.2° at midday
Akira Nozawa's drive can meet resistance, from outside obstacles or from private doubt, and frustration builds when progress feels blocked. Under this square, every stretch of steady work done anyway turns that resistance into competence, the kind that is there when it is needed most.
Mercury sextile Venus
about 1.3° at midday
Thinking and affection are easy companions in Akira's chart, which gives them a natural charm in how they communicate. With Mercury sextile Venus, expressing appreciation and finding the right words go together, especially in moments when they want someone to feel noticed.
Mars square Pluto
about 1.5° at midday
With Mars square Pluto, Akira's drive can turn into a fight for control, whether the opponent is within them or is someone who resists them. When they redirect that intensity into the work itself, the friction becomes lasting strength.
Mars sextile Neptune
about 1.5° at midday
In Akira's chart, drive and imagination help each other along gently, so inspired action is possible before everything has been mapped out. The motivation is soft but workable, and it keeps a creative or compassionate project moving without forcing it.
Saturn conjunction Pluto
about 2.7° at midday
Saturn conjunct Pluto describes discipline forged through intensity, often after a period that asked for more endurance than seemed fair at the time. For Akira the aspect suggests serious, hard-won resilience, and the remaining step is trusting that what needed proving has been proved.
Mercury opposition Uranus
about 3.0° at midday
With Mercury opposite Uranus, Akira's unconventional ideas meet other people's fixed positions, which can turn a good insight into an unnecessary standoff. Presenting the idea as an option rather than a challenge tends to land better.

How this page is made
Planet positions are computed with the astronomy-engine ephemeris and checked against Swiss Ephemeris. Birth dates and places come from Wikidata; birth times, where StarMap has one, come from Astro-Databank and are shown with their Rodden rating. The readings describe what a placement is traditionally taken to mean. They are written by StarMap for reflection and entertainment, not as statements about the person’s private life. New to charts?
