Cam Gigandet’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
16 August 1982 was a Monday: the day Cam Gigandet was born in Tacoma, Washington. That makes Cam a Leo, with the Moon in Cancer. Cam turns 44 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Cam, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
Of the ten planets, four are in fire signs, three in water, two in air and one in earth. By modality the count is four fixed, three cardinal and three mutable. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Neptune and Pluto: 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. Neptune was retrograde. The Moon was a waning crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 22 other people born on 16 August, among them Madonna, James Cameron and Charles Bukowski.

Cam Gigandet’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 23° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Cam Gigandet 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
Cancer
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
The Moon is at home in Cancer. For Cam 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.
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 Tacoma, Washington, at each hour of the day.

Cam Gigandet’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Cam Gigandet’s private life.
Purpose for Cam Gigandet 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.
With the Moon in Cancer, Cam'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.
For Cam, 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.
Venus in Leo loves generously and openly, and values being someone's clear favourite above almost anything else on offer. For Cam, the tension this suggests is needing steady reassurance of still being adored. Their gestures tend to be grand and thoughtful, and it can sting when those go unnoticed.
In Cam's chart, Mars in Scorpio acts with focus and intensity, and its anger, when it surfaces, tends to be controlled, cutting and hard to forget. The risk with this Mars is holding on to a grievance well past its useful life. A calm exterior gives little warning before a sharp response.
Jupiter in Scorpio
3° Scorpio 55' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Scorpio grows by facing what is difficult rather than avoiding it, even when that is the harder road at the time. The overreach, for Cam, may be an intensity that turns a manageable situation into an all-consuming one. The resilience tends to be noticed only after the hard part is over.
For Cam, 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 Sagittarius
0° Sagittarius 35' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Cam than about the years around their birth. People of that age transform belief and access to knowledge, often through unprecedented exposure to other cultures and ideas. The personal trace is a restlessness with any single worldview presented as the only one.
Neptune in Sagittarius
24° Sagittarius 22' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Cam in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
24° Libra 38' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Cam belongs to, because Pluto moves so slowly. That generation transforms ideas of partnership, fairness and what people owe one another. Personally it can be an intense need for relationships to be fundamentally fair.
Aspects in Cam Gigandet’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 trine Neptune
about 0.8° at midday
Cam Gigandet's identity and imagination flow together easily, giving them an intuitive, artistic quality that feels natural rather than performed. With the Sun trine Neptune, compassion comes without much effort, and other people often sense it before a word has been said.
Sun sextile Pluto
about 1.1° at midday
Cam's identity and depth are allies, which gives them resilience without constant upheaval. They probably handle intensity better than most, and it takes less out of them than it looks from outside, especially once they trust their own steadiness.
Venus square Jupiter
about 1.1° at midday
Under this square, Cam's generosity can run past what is sustainable, whether in time, affection or promises made in a warm moment. The warmth is sincere; the work is matching it to a scale that can be kept up over the months that follow the excitement, not only the first one.
Venus trine Uranus
about 2.2° at midday
Closeness does not have to feel confining for Cam, because under this trine affection and independence sit easily together. Excitement and stability manage to coexist, more comfortably than the usual choice between the two would suggest.
Mars conjunction Jupiter
about 3.9° at midday
Mars conjunct Jupiter lends Cam's drive a bold confidence, and they tend to act on a big goal before doubt has a chance to catch up. Momentum is the gift here; pacing is the skill, so that the energy lasts beyond the first burst of enthusiasm.
Venus square Mars
about 5.0° at midday
Desire and the need for harmony can clash where Venus squares Mars, and Cam 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.
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?
