Burt Bacharach’s birth chart

Burt Bacharach's full reading

Each planet by sign. First-draft readings in the StarMap voice, reviewed by our consulting astrologer before launch.

1. ☉Sun in Taurus

   ♉ 21° Taurus 41'

   purpose and vitality

   They find purpose in building something that lasts, and their vitality runs slow and steady rather than in bursts. The tension is a reluctance to change course even when the plan is clearly not working. It shows up in how long they stay at one job or one home before they will admit it is time to move.

2. ☽Moon in Aquarius

   ♒ 19° Aquarius 45'

   needs and habits

   They proces daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and they need a degree of independence built into any close relationship. The tension is intellectualising a feeling instead of simply having it. It shows up as needing time alone to recover even after a good day with people.

3. ☿Mercury in Gemini

   ♊ 2° Gemini 29'

   mind and voice

   Their mind moves fast across many subjects at once, and they communicate easily in almost any setting. The tension is skimming the surface of a topic and moving on before they have gone deep enough to be sure of it. It shows up as knowing a little about a great many things.

4. ♀Venus in Taurus

   ♉ 8° Taurus 13'

   love and values

   They love steadily and show it through consistency, touch and shared comfort rather than grand gestures. They value loyalty and things built to last. The tension is holding onto a relationship past its natural end because change feels like loss. It shows up as remembering exactly how someone takes their coffee, months in.

5. ♂Mars in Pisces

   ♓ 26° Pisces 49'

   drive and anger

   They act indirectly, often through avoidance or quiet withdrawal rather than confrontation, and their anger can turn into sadness before they have even named it as anger. The tension is absorbing conflict rather than addressing it. It shows up as needing to physically leave a tense room before they can work out what they feel.

6. ♃Jupiter in Aries

   ♈ 25° Aries 06'

   growth and excess

   They grow through bold, direct action and taking the first step before they feel fully ready. The overreach is starting more than they can realistically finish. It shows up as a burst of confidence that gets a new venture off the ground, whether or not the groundwork is fully in place.

7. ♄Saturn in Sagittarius

   ♐ 17° Sagittarius 36' ℞

   discipline and doubt

   They build discipline around belief and meaning, often after an early experience that made a big worldview feel naive or unsafe to hold. The doubt shows up as hedging their convictions in front of people who might challenge them. It shows up as becoming, over time, a credible voice on the very questions they once felt unsure they had any right to answer.

8. ♅Uranus in Aries

   ♈ 5° Aries 57'

   freedom, generational

   Shared by everyone born in this multi-year span, this placement marks a generation that pushes for change through direct, individual action rather than waiting for permission. Personally, it can show up as an impatience with slow-moving institutions that older generations built.

9. ♆Neptune in Leo

   ♌ 26° Leo 24'

   imagination, generational

   Shared by everyone born in this span of years, this placement marks a generation that dreams in terms of fame, spectacle and larger-than-life self-expression. Personally, it can show up as a pull toward performance as a way of feeling real.

10. ♇Pluto in Cancer

    ♋ 15° Cancer 22'

    power, generational

    Shared across this generation, this placement marks people who live through deep transformation of family, home and nationhood. Personally, it can show up as intensity around questions of belonging and who counts as family.

Aspects

How the planets in Burt Bacharach's chart talk to each other, tightest first.

1. Jupiter trine Neptune

   1.3° applying

   Their optimism and their imagination flow together with real ease, giving they an inspired, generous vision of what is possible. Faith and creativity tend to serve they well without much friction, especially when they let both guide a project rather than second-guessing either one.

2. Sun square Moon

   1.9° applying

   Who Burt is trying to be and what actually comforts they sometime tug in different directions, and that friction sharpens their self-awareness. Working through it teaches they to want things in a way their feelings can actually live with.

3. Moon sextile Saturn

   2.2° separating

   Their feelings and their sense of structure cooperate, giving they a workable, grounded way of managing difficult emotions. This is quiet resilience rather than avoidance, the kind that holds up well over a genuinely long stretch of time.

4. Mercury sextile Uranus

   3.5° applying

   Their thinking and their originality cooperate, giving they easy access to fresh angles on ordinary problems. This is a useful, low-effort kind of inventiveness that makes routine problems feel more interesting than they really are.
