Barry White’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief

Barry White was born on Tuesday, 12 September 1944, in Galveston, Texas. The Sun was in Virgo, so Virgo was their zodiac sign. The Moon was in Cancer until about 17:50 and in Leo afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Barry died on 4 July 2003, aged 58. StarMap has no verified birth time for Barry, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.

By element the count is four air, three earth, one fire and one water, leaving out the Moon, whose sign depends on the birth time. Cardinal signs hold four, mutable signs four and fixed signs one. Sun, Mercury and Jupiter all fall in Virgo. Venus, Mars and Neptune all fall in Libra. The tightest aspect is Mars sextile Pluto, exact to a tenth of a degree. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. One planet was retrograde: Mercury. The Moon was a waning crescent.

StarMap's dataset holds 25 other people born on 12 September, among them Stanisław Lem, Paul Walker and Jesse Owens. Yoshio Kikugawa was born on the very same day.

Barry White’s Sun, Moon and rising sign

Sun sign

Virgo

about 19° Virgo at midday

A Virgo Sun refines. Barry White is likely to notice what could be better and quietly make it so, keeping the highest standards for themselves. The art of this placement is knowing when good enough is the wiser choice.

All Virgo Suns

Moon sign

Cancer or Leo

Cancer until about 17:50, then Leo (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.

Born before about 17:50: Moon in Cancer

The Moon is at home in Cancer. For Barry that points to feelings that are tidal, strong and closely tied to the people they love, and to a memory for how everything felt. This Moon is restored by home, by cooking, and by being needed.

Born after about 17:50: Moon in Leo

A Leo Moon feels with its whole heart and needs that to be noticed. Warm attention tends to fill Barry up, and being overlooked can empty them faster than anything. Play, creativity and loyal friends usually bring them back to themselves.

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 Galveston, Texas, at each hour of the day.

Barry White’s rising sign, by birth time

StarMap has not verified a birth time for Barry 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 12 September 1944, computed for Galveston, Texas.

Barry White’s planets, sign by sign

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

  1. Sun in Virgo

    19° Virgo 47' at midday

    purpose and vitality

    A Virgo Sun finds purpose in being useful and doing a job properly, and Barry White's energy tends to stay steady as long as there is a task worth doing well. Rest is the hard part, because it can feel undeserved until everything is fixed. Typically a piece of work is still being adjusted long after everyone else would call it finished.

  2. Moon in Cancer or Leo

    Cancer until about 17:50, then Leo

    needs and habits

    Born before about 17:50: Moon in Cancer

    With the Moon in Cancer, Barry's needs tend to be tied to home, routine and the people they check in on daily. Small rituals are steadying: a particular meal, a particular chair. The tension is reading other people's moods so closely that those moods can be taken on without noticing.

    Born after about 17:50: Moon in Leo

    A Leo Moon needs warmth and acknowledgement worked into everyday life, not just on big occasions. A day with no one noticing can drain Barry faster than a hard day with an audience. The mood tends to lift visibly the moment someone compliments something small Barry did.

  3. Mercury in Virgo

    9° Virgo 29' at midday ℞

    mind and voice

    For Barry, Mercury in Virgo points to thinking that is precise and attentive to detail, and to clear communication, because the facts have usually been checked first. The catch is fixating on a small error and losing sight of the larger point. This is the placement that edits a message three times before sending something everyone else would have sent in one go.

  4. Venus in Libra

    10° Libra 51' at midday

    love and values

    Venus in Libra loves with an instinct for balance and partnership, and Barry 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. Barry may give up a personal preference before anyone has even asked.

  5. Mars in Libra

    9° Libra 31' at midday

    drive and anger

    In Barry'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.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo

    10° Virgo 24' at midday

    growth and excess

    Jupiter in Virgo finds its growth in mastering a craft in unglamorous detail, one small correction at a time. For Barry, perfectionism may be the excess, turning growth into an endless list of corrections. People with this Jupiter are often trusted with more responsibility than they feel they deserve, usually because the care in the work shows.

  7. Saturn in Cancer

    9° Cancer 18' at midday

    discipline and doubt

    Emotional security is where Barry's Saturn in Cancer builds discipline; it is a placement often associated with learning early to be the steady one. Asking for care tends to be difficult with this Saturn, even when care is clearly needed. Over time, people with this placement often become the dependable anchor for others, including some who never quite return the favour.

  8. Uranus in Gemini

    13° Gemini 07' at midday

    freedom, generational

    Uranus in Gemini is shared by Barry and many people born in the same few years. These are people who come of age alongside a revolution in communication, fluent in tools older generations learned later in life. The personal version is a restless need for new information.

  9. Neptune in Libra

    3° Libra 26' at midday

    imagination, generational

    A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Barry 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

    9° Leo 30' 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 Barry, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.

Aspects in Barry White’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 Pluto

    about 0.0° at midday

    This sextile joins drive to depth, so resilience and follow-through are likely to be available to Barry White without constant conflict. Barry is likely to handle pressure better than most, and at a lower cost than expected, largely because a fight is rarely needed to prove the point.

  2. Mercury sextile Saturn

    about 0.2° at midday

    Turning a loose idea into something solid is easier with Mercury sextile Saturn, because Barry's thinking and sense of structure work together. The clarity is quiet and practical, and it shows most when a plan has to work.

  3. Mars square Saturn

    about 0.2° at midday

    Barry'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.

  4. Mercury conjunction Jupiter

    about 0.9° at midday

    Barry's thinking is likely to be expansive and enthusiastic, connecting ideas across subjects other people keep separate. It makes for lively conversation, and the habit worth adding is checking the details behind a big idea before committing to it fully.

  5. Jupiter sextile Saturn

    about 1.1° at midday

    A workable, grounded kind of optimism comes from this sextile, in which Barry'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.

  6. Venus conjunction Mars

    about 1.3° at midday

    With Venus conjunct Mars, affection and drive are closely linked, so, for Barry, wanting something and going after it are likely to feel like one impulse. The aspect brings plenty of romantic and creative energy; its test is letting the wanting outlast the first chase.

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.
