Blake Edwards’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Blake Edwards was born on Wednesday, 26 July 1922, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. That made Blake a Leo. The Moon was in Leo until about 07:20 and in Virgo afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Blake died on 15 December 2010, aged 88. StarMap has not verified a birth time yet, so the chart is cast for midday on that date and has no houses.
By element the count is three fire, three water, two air and one earth, leaving out the Moon, whose sign depends on the birth time. Cardinal signs hold four, mutable signs three and fixed signs two. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Sun and Saturn: a sextile, about 0.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. One planet was retrograde: Uranus. The Moon was a waxing crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 20 other people born on 26 July, among them Stanley Kubrick, Sandra Bullock and Helen Mirren. Jason Robards was born on the very same day. Wikidata links Blake with one person in the dataset: Julie Andrews (married from 1969 until 2010).

Blake Edwards’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 2° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Blake Edwards 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
Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 07:20, then Virgo (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 07:20: Moon in Leo
A Leo Moon feels with its whole heart and needs that to be noticed. Warm attention tends to fill Blake up, and being overlooked can empty them faster than anything. Play, creativity and loyal friends usually bring them back to themselves.
Born after about 07:20: Moon in Virgo
A Virgo Moon feels by fixing. When something is wrong, Blake is likely to look for the practical cause and to calm down by tidying, planning or being useful. The lesson of this Moon is to accept help without a to-do list attached.
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 Tulsa, Oklahoma, at each hour of the day.
Blake Edwards’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Blake 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 26 July 1922, computed for Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Blake Edwards’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Blake Edwards’s private life.
Purpose for Blake Edwards 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 Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 07:20, then Virgo
needs and habits
Born before about 07:20: 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 Blake faster than a hard day with an audience. The mood tends to lift visibly the moment someone compliments something small Blake did.
Born after about 07:20: Moon in Virgo
The Moon in Virgo runs towards order, and a messy space or an unfinished list can unsettle Blake's mood more than most people would guess. Small, useful tasks are calming. The trouble can start when Blake's own needs become another chore to get right instead of something to enjoy.
Mercury in Cancer thinks in terms of memory and feeling as much as logic, and Blake probably communicates best when there is emotional trust in the room. Mood can colour how a fact gets delivered or received. Years after the details have faded, this is a mind that remembers exactly how a conversation felt.
With Venus in Virgo, Blake is likely to love through small, practical acts of service and to value competence and reliability in a partner. People with this Venus tend to be hardest on those they love most, and can mistake giving notes for giving care. They may try to fix a partner's problem before simply listening to it.
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. Blake 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 Libra
12° Libra 29' at midday
growth and excess
In Blake's chart, Jupiter in Libra suggests growth through partnership and a gift for bringing people together. Excess here looks like pleasing people so broadly that every expectation becomes a commitment. Someone with this Jupiter is often the connector whose introductions and events other people benefit from more than they realise.
For Blake, Saturn in Libra means discipline built around relationships, and fairness and commitment are trusted slowly. The doubt is overthinking whether a partnership is truly equal. With time, people with this Saturn tend to become the ones others rely on to negotiate and to keep things fair.
Uranus in Pisces
13° Pisces 03' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Blake has Uranus in Pisces in common with a generation. That generation transforms spirituality, art and collective imagination, often blurring boundaries that earlier ones kept firm. In one person it may be noticed as an openness to ideas that resist neat categories.
Neptune in Leo
15° Leo 12' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Leo is the imagination of an age group, not of Blake alone. It dreams in terms of fame, spectacle and larger-than-life self-expression. The trace of it in one person is a pull towards performance as a way of feeling real.
Pluto in Cancer
10° Cancer 10' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Blake 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 Blake Edwards’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.
Sun sextile Saturn
about 0.2° at midday
Steady, unglamorous effort is likely to feel worthwhile to Blake Edwards rather than draining, because it fits their sense of who they are. Consistency probably comes more easily to them than they give themselves credit for, especially once they stop waiting for permission to claim it.
Venus opposition Uranus
about 0.3° at midday
Blake may want intimacy and still feel a reflex to protect their freedom the moment things seem too certain; that is the tension of Venus opposite Uranus. Naming the need for space early tends to work better than acting on it as sudden distance.
Mars sextile Jupiter
about 0.8° at midday
There is confident, well-aimed energy in this sextile, and not much wasted effort, since Blake's drive and optimism pull together. Taking the initiative suits Blake, above all when they commit to one goal and do not scatter their energy across several.
Mars square Uranus
about 1.3° at midday
This square can make drive turn abrupt, leading to sudden decisions or breaks that surprise Blake as much as they surprise everyone nearby. A brief pause before the impulsive move keeps the courage and loses the recklessness.
Venus square Mars
about 1.6° at midday
Desire and the need for harmony can clash where Venus squares Mars, and Blake may be caught between wanting something and wanting to keep the peace. What the aspect asks for is a want voiced directly, before it leaks out sideways.
Jupiter square Pluto
about 2.3° at midday
Ambition can turn into a struggle for control under this square, over outcomes that were never fully Blake's to control. The considerable drive involved is better aimed at transformation than at domination, which tends to produce a result that lasts.
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?
