Cantinflas’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Cantinflas was born in Mexico City, Mexico, on 12 August 1911, a Saturday. Their zodiac sign was Leo, with the Moon in Pisces. Cantinflas died on 20 April 1993, aged 81. No verified birth time is on file for Cantinflas; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Earth carries the most weight: five of the ten planets, against water three, fire one and air one. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is two, four and four. The tightest aspect is Venus trine Uranus, about 0.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Uranus was retrograde. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.

Cantinflas’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 18° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Cantinflas 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
Pisces
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
With the Moon in Pisces, Cantinflas may well pick up the mood of a whole room. Music, water, sleep and imagination tend to restore them, and it matters whose moods they carry home. The empathy of this Moon is a gift that needs a door.
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 Mexico City, Mexico, at each hour of the day.
Cantinflas’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Cantinflas 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 August 1911, computed for Mexico City, Mexico.

Cantinflas’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Cantinflas’s private life.
Purpose for Cantinflas 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.
The Moon in Pisces makes for a porous daily mood, one that picks up the emotional temperature of a room without choosing to. Quiet, music or time near water probably restores Cantinflas more than talking things out. It can be easy for them to miss how much of what they feel belongs to someone else.
For Cantinflas, 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.
With Venus in Virgo, Cantinflas 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 Taurus acts deliberately and sticks with a course once chosen, and its anger builds slowly but takes a long time to cool once it arrives. At times Cantinflas may dig in out of stubbornness rather than conviction. It takes real provocation to make this Mars snap, and the rattled feeling tends to last a while afterwards.
Jupiter in Scorpio
7° Scorpio 03' 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 Cantinflas, 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.
Saturn in Taurus gathers its discipline around security and the things a person relies on, and Cantinflas is likely to take very little for granted. The doubt is a fear that stability could disappear, even when it clearly has not. This placement likes to know what things cost before committing, and tends to stay careful even in steady times.
Uranus in Capricorn
26° Capricorn 29' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Many people within a few years of Cantinflas's age share Uranus in Capricorn, the mark of a generation that dismantles and rebuilds old institutions and structures of authority. Personally, that can mean scepticism towards any system that asks for trust without having shown why it deserves it.
Neptune in Cancer
22° Cancer 19' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Cancer is shared by Cantinflas and many people born in the same decade or so. The generation idealises home and family, often carrying a wider nostalgia for a version of belonging that may never quite have existed. Personally it can be a soft-focus longing for a childhood home.
Pluto in Gemini
28° Gemini 35' at midday
power, generational
Cantinflas shares Pluto in Gemini with many people born in the same long stretch of years. That generation transforms communication and collective thought, often through upheavals in how information is controlled and shared. The personal portion is an intense relationship with what counts as truth.
Aspects in Cantinflas’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.
Venus trine Uranus
about 0.2° at midday
Closeness does not have to feel confining for Cantinflas, 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.
Sun square Saturn
about 0.9° at midday
With the Sun square Saturn, confidence meets resistance, often in the form of self-doubt or an authority figure whose approval feels hard to win. When Cantinflas pushes through it anyway, the achievement means more because it was tested.
Mercury trine Mars
about 1.3° at midday
Cantinflas's thinking and drive support each other, and it shows in decisions communicated with clarity and confidence. Debate and quick thinking come easily with Mercury trine Mars, which makes Cantinflas persuasive when the moment calls for it.
Sun square Mars
about 1.3° at midday
Impatience, or a habit of picking fights that did not need picking, can come from the clash between Cantinflas's sense of self and their drive to act. With the Sun square Mars, a pause between the impulse and the action turns this friction into determination they can use.
Venus square Pluto
about 1.9° at midday
Where Venus squares Pluto, the desire for closeness can get tangled with control, and the aspect is associated with jealousy, possessiveness or testing a partner's loyalty. Whenever Cantinflas chooses trust over control, that intensity becomes a strength instead of a strain.
Mars conjunction Saturn
about 2.3° at midday
With Mars conjunct Saturn, drive is disciplined and controlled, and Cantinflas is likely to channel energy into long, patient effort in place of short bursts. It makes them capable of sustained work. The risk is that caution talks them out of acting when the moment calls for it.
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.

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?
