America Ferrera’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
America Ferrera was born in Los Angeles, California, on 18 April 1984, a Wednesday. The Sun was in Aries, so Aries is their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Sagittarius. America turns 42 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for America; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Of the ten planets, four are in fire signs, three in earth and three in water; none is in air. Cardinal signs hold four, fixed signs four and mutable signs two. Three planets stand together in Scorpio: Mars, Saturn and Pluto. Closest of the aspects is the trine between Venus and Uranus, about 0.4° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mercury, Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto were retrograde. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 22 other people born on 18 April, among them James Woods, Wojciech Szczęsny and Conan O'Brien.

America Ferrera’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Aries
about 28° Aries at midday
An Aries Sun starts things. For America Ferrera that points to energy that is direct and impatient with delay, and to feeling most like themselves when there is something to go first at. The work of this placement is finishing what the spark began.
Moon sign
Sagittarius
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Sagittarius Moon feels best in motion. Open roads, new ideas and honest laughter probably lift America, and being fenced in by other people's moods tends to weigh them down. This Moon needs room, and someone who thinks that is fine.
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 Los Angeles, California, at each hour of the day.
America Ferrera’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for America 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 18 April 1984, computed for Los Angeles, California.

America Ferrera’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about America Ferrera’s private life.
With the Sun in Aries, America Ferrera's sense of purpose tends to come alive when there is a clear start line. They probably feel most like themselves pushing into something new, though that energy can burn hot and fade before the finish. The typical pattern is a project launched with excitement, then handed off once the routine sets in.
The Moon in Sagittarius needs room to move and a bit of novelty in its routine to feel right. A schedule with no give in it can make America edgy faster than most people expect. With this Moon, the next trip tends to be planned before the current one has finished.
With Mercury in Taurus, America is likely to think slowly and thoroughly, and a conclusion once reached is rarely revisited without good reason. The communication style is plain and practical rather than showy. A new idea that clashes with what they already believe may have to wait a while for a hearing.
Venus in Aries loves with immediacy and pursues what it wants without much hesitation, and it values a partner who can keep up. For America that suggests an interest that can fade once the chase is over. The pattern is to fall fast and to need a relationship to keep feeling like a choice, not a routine.
In America's chart, Mars in Scorpio acts with focus and intensity, and its anger, when it surfaces, tends to be controlled, cutting and hard to forget. The risk with this Mars is holding on to a grievance well past its useful life. A calm exterior gives little warning before a sharp response.
Jupiter in Capricorn
12° Capricorn 46' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Capricorn grows through long-term discipline, and America would probably rather build slowly and properly than quickly. The overreach is taking on more responsibility than any one person should reasonably carry. The authority this Jupiter brings is slow and hard-won, the kind people tend to trust more the longer they know someone.
Saturn in Scorpio builds its discipline around trust and control, and for America letting go of either is unlikely to come easily. The doubt is bracing for betrayal even in relationships that have given no reason for it. Comfort with vulnerability can come in the end, and the work it takes is seldom seen by others.
Uranus in Sagittarius
13° Sagittarius 08' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about America than about the years around their birth. People of that age transform belief and access to knowledge, often through unprecedented exposure to other cultures and ideas. The personal trace is a restlessness with any single worldview presented as the only one.
Neptune in Capricorn
1° Capricorn 21' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Capricorn is shared by America and about fourteen years of births. The imagination of the generation questions or idealises authority and ambition, often shaped by wide disillusionment with institutions. The personal version may be an uneasy relationship with conventional success.
Pluto in Scorpio
0° Scorpio 48' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto is at home in Scorpio, and the generation born with it lives through profound upheavals in power, secrecy and shared taboos. America's own share may be an unusually deep comfort with intensity that others would find overwhelming.
Aspects in America Ferrera’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.
Venus trine Uranus
about 0.4° at midday
Closeness does not have to feel confining for America Ferrera, because under this trine affection and independence sit easily together. Excitement and stability manage to coexist, more comfortably than the usual choice between the two would suggest.
Venus square Jupiter
about 0.8° at midday
Under this square, America's generosity can run past what is sustainable, whether in time, affection or promises made in a warm moment. The warmth is sincere; the work is matching it to a scale that can be kept up over the months that follow the excitement, not only the first one.
Jupiter sextile Saturn
about 1.4° at midday
A workable, grounded kind of optimism comes from this sextile, in which America's sense of possibility and sense of structure assist each other. The plans they make tend to hold together, even under the sort of pressure that scatters looser ones.
Sun opposition Pluto
about 1.8° at midday
The Sun opposite Pluto sets plain self-assertion against the draw of power struggles with people who seem to threaten America's sense of control. Working through it leaves America with a strength that has no need to prove itself.
Sun trine Neptune
about 2.4° at midday
America's identity and imagination flow together easily, giving them an intuitive, artistic quality that feels natural rather than performed. With the Sun trine Neptune, compassion comes without much effort, and other people often sense it before a word has been said.
Mercury trine Neptune
about 3.1° at midday
America probably has a natural gift for metaphor, storytelling and intuitive leaps, the work of thinking and imagination in easy partnership. With Mercury trine Neptune, communicating something hard to put into words comes easily, in a way that other people often find memorable.
The rest, listed without a reading. Those between Uranus, Neptune and Pluto hold for years at a time, so everyone born while one holds shares it.

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?
