André Rieu’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief

André Rieu was born on Saturday, 1 October 1949, in Maastricht, Netherlands. Their zodiac sign is Libra. The Moon left Capricorn for Aquarius at about 02:15 local time, which leaves the Moon sign open without a birth time. André turns 77 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for André, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.

Air carries the most weight: three of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, against fire two, earth two and water two. Cardinal signs hold five, fixed signs three and mutable signs one. Sun, Mercury and Neptune all fall in Libra. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mars and Neptune: a sextile, about 0.3° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mercury was retrograde. The Moon was waxing gibbous, between first quarter and full.

StarMap's dataset holds 17 other people born on 1 October, among them Jimmy Carter, Julie Andrews and George Weah.

André Rieu’s Sun, Moon and rising sign

Sun sign

Libra

about 7° Libra at midday

A Libra Sun balances. Fairness, beauty and the quality of relationships tend to shape André Rieu's decisions, and this is a placement that can see both sides of almost anything. The growth lies in choosing a side when it counts.

All Libra Suns

Moon sign

Capricorn or Aquarius

Capricorn until about 02:15, then Aquarius (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.

Born before about 02:15: Moon in Capricorn

A Capricorn Moon feels responsibly. With it, André may hold themselves together for other people, and can be hard on themselves when they cannot. This Moon tends to be restored by accomplishment, by structure, and by the rare person allowed to see them tired.

Born after about 02:15: Moon in Aquarius

An Aquarius Moon feels from a step back. André is likely to understand an emotion better than they inhabit it, and to need space and ideas to process. For this Moon, friends are family and freedom is security.

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 Maastricht, Netherlands, at each hour of the day.

André Rieu’s rising sign, by birth time

StarMap has not verified a birth time for André 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 1 October 1949, computed for Maastricht, Netherlands.

André Rieu’s planets, sign by sign

Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about André Rieu’s private life.

  1. Sun in Libra

    7° Libra 55' at midday

    purpose and vitality

    With the Sun in Libra, André Rieu's vitality is likely to rise in good company, and purpose to feel real when they are creating balance or beauty with other people. The risk is losing their own direction while managing everyone else's. Deciding alone is probably harder for them than deciding with a second opinion in the room.

  2. Moon in Capricorn or Aquarius

    Capricorn until about 02:15, then Aquarius

    needs and habits

    Born before about 02:15: Moon in Capricorn

    With the Moon in Capricorn, André's comfort probably comes from accomplishing something concrete each day, and an unproductive day can leave them oddly unsettled even on holiday. Harder feelings tend to be kept for when they are alone. Before rest is allowed there is usually one more thing to tidy, organise or finish.

    Born after about 02:15: Moon in Aquarius

    An Aquarius Moon processes daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and André is likely to need a degree of independence built into any close relationship. The temptation is to analyse a feeling instead of simply having it. Even after a good day with people, this Moon needs time alone to recover.

  3. Mercury in Libra

    12° Libra 59' at midday ℞

    mind and voice

    Mercury in Libra thinks by weighing both sides, and André tends to communicate diplomatically, often finding the version of an idea that will land well with whoever is listening. Settling on an opinion can take so long that the moment for it passes. They may change their mind in the middle of a conversation because the other point had merit.

  4. Venus in Scorpio

    19° Scorpio 37' at midday

    love and values

    Venus in Scorpio loves intensely and privately, and André is likely to value depth and total honesty over ease. Testing loyalty can create the very distance this placement fears most. There is an all-or-nothing quality to how this Venus commits, with little interest in anything in between.

  5. Mars in Leo

    14° Leo 58' at midday

    drive and anger

    Mars in Leo acts with confidence and wants the effort to be visible, and for André its anger is likely to flare when pride or loyalty is challenged. The tension is turning a disagreement into a matter of ego. Criticism of the work can feel personal to a Leo Mars, even when it was not meant that way.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn

    22° Capricorn 35' at midday

    growth and excess

    Jupiter in Capricorn grows through long-term discipline, and André 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.

  7. Saturn in Virgo

    13° Virgo 09' at midday

    discipline and doubt

    Competence is what Saturn in Virgo builds discipline around, often driven by a fear of not yet having done enough to deserve rest. André may feel like a fraud even when the track record says otherwise. The usual result is someone quietly excellent at something long before they will admit it out loud.

  8. Uranus in Cancer

    4° Cancer 58' at midday

    freedom, generational

    Uranus in Cancer belongs to an age group rather than to André alone. Its mark is a generation that redefines home and family, departing from the structures the previous generation grew up inside. At the personal level it is read as a pull to build family life differently.

  9. Neptune in Libra

    14° Libra 38' at midday

    imagination, generational

    A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, André among them. It idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by images of love on screen that outpace real relationships. The personal echo is a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.

  10. Pluto in Leo

    17° Leo 38' at midday

    power, generational

    Pluto in Leo is held by a whole generation, one that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. At a personal scale, for André, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.

Aspects in André Rieu’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.

  1. Mars sextile Neptune

    about 0.3° at midday

    In André Rieu'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.

  2. Mercury conjunction Neptune

    about 1.7° at midday

    With Mercury conjunct Neptune, André's thinking is likely to be imaginative and impressionistic, working through images and instinct as much as straight logic. It is a creative and intuitive strength, at its best when a compelling idea has been held up against the facts before being embraced.

  3. Venus square Pluto

    about 2.0° at midday

    Where Venus squares Pluto, the desire for closeness can get tangled with control, and the aspect is associated with jealousy, possessiveness or testing a partner's loyalty. Whenever André chooses trust over control, that intensity becomes a strength instead of a strain.

  4. Mercury sextile Mars

    about 2.0° at midday

    Speaking up quickly and clearly when it matters comes easily to André, since thinking and drive work in step. That plain directness serves them well in fast-moving conversations and quick decisions alike.

  5. Mars conjunction Pluto

    about 2.7° at midday

    With Mars conjunct Pluto, drive tends to be intense and relentless, and once André is committed to something they are likely to see it through whatever the cost. There is staying power to spare, so the art is in choosing battles, and keeping that intensity away from the ones that do not deserve it.

  6. Sun square Uranus

    about 3.0° at midday

    When the Sun is square Uranus, André's identity keeps bumping against a need to break from convention, which can look like sudden changes of direction that surprise the people nearby. The skill is choosing those disruptions rather than letting restlessness choose them.

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.

  • Neptune sextile Plutoabout 3.0°
  • Venus square Marsabout 4.6°
  • Sun conjunction Mercuryabout 5.1°
