Bernard Hill’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Bernard Hill was born in Blackley, England, on 17 December 1944, a Sunday. The Sun was in Sagittarius, so Sagittarius was their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Capricorn. Bernard died on 5 May 2024, aged 79. StarMap has no verified birth time for Bernard, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
By element the count is three fire, three earth, three air and one water. Cardinal signs hold four, mutable signs four and fixed signs two. The tightest aspect is Uranus sextile Pluto, about 0.5° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Four planets were retrograde: Mercury, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto. The Moon was a waxing crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 16 other people born on 17 December, among them Pope Francis, Milla Jovovich and Manny Pacquiao.

Bernard Hill’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Sagittarius
about 25° Sagittarius at midday
A Sagittarius Sun seeks. Meaning, distance and the bigger picture are likely to pull Bernard Hill forward, and the honesty of this placement is a kind of generosity. Its lesson is that the journey also needs somewhere to land.
Moon sign
Capricorn
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Capricorn Moon feels responsibly. With it, Bernard 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.
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 Blackley, England, at each hour of the day.

Until then, this is the rising sign for every possible time of birth on 17 December 1944, computed for Blackley, England.

Bernard Hill’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Bernard Hill’s private life.
Growth, travel and ideas bigger than daily life are where Bernard Hill's Sagittarius Sun finds purpose, and their energy tends to lift the moment there is somewhere new to go. Familiarity is what wears on this placement. A few months into any routine, however good it is, restlessness usually sets in.
With the Moon in Capricorn, Bernard'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.
Mercury in Capricorn thinks methodically, and Bernard tends to communicate in a measured, practical way that people trust. The focus on a useful conclusion can be so strong that ideas which have not yet proven their worth are dismissed. Bernard will often get straight to the point in a conversation other people expected to be casual.
Venus in Aquarius loves as a friend first, and values independence, shared ideas and a partner who allows plenty of room. Bernard may keep just enough distance that closeness feels slightly out of reach, even to them. This Venus can prize a partner's individuality more than the intimacy between them.
Mars in Sagittarius acts boldly and wants room to move while doing it, and its anger flares fast over anything that feels like a limit on freedom. Bernard may speak bluntly in the heat of the moment and smooth it over later. Given the choice, this placement walks away from a fight rather than staying to work it out.
Jupiter in Virgo
26° Virgo 27' 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 Bernard, 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.
Emotional security is where Bernard'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.
Uranus in Gemini
10° Gemini 31' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Gemini is shared by Bernard 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.
Neptune in Libra
6° Libra 18' at midday
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Bernard 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.
Pluto in Leo
9° Leo 58' 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 Bernard, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Bernard Hill’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.
Mercury opposition Saturn
about 0.6° at midday
Under Mercury opposite Saturn, a doubt can creep into Bernard Hill's thinking about whether it is good enough to share. Speaking the imperfect version out loud matters more than waiting for the polished one.
Sun square Jupiter
about 1.1° at midday
Ambition can outpace what time and energy will realistically support, and with this aspect Bernard may promise more than can be delivered and then walk it back. The lesson of a Sun-Jupiter square is scaling a good instinct to a size that holds.
Venus trine Neptune
about 1.1° at midday
Bernard is likely to love with a romantic, artistic quality that comes naturally, because affection and imagination flow together under this trine. Compassion and creativity arrive easily, and the people nearby tend to feel cared for as a result.
Mercury square Neptune
about 1.3° at midday
Wishful assumptions, or a compelling but unverified story, can blur thinking when Mercury is square Neptune. What helps Bernard is pairing imagination with a habit of checking the details before repeating the story as though it were settled fact.
Saturn square Neptune
about 2.0° at midday
Practical sense and idealism can pull against each other in this square, and for Bernard that may mean either an uninspired routine or a dream with no realistic plan behind it. The way through is to build the structure and protect the dream at the same time, without sacrificing one for the other.
Venus opposition Pluto
about 2.5° at midday
A wish for deep intimacy meets a fear of losing oneself, or losing control, inside it: that is the pattern of Venus opposite Pluto. For Bernard, choosing vulnerability a little at a time, instead of guarding against it, tends to build the very depth being sought.
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?
