Charlotte Gainsbourg’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Charlotte Gainsbourg was born in Marylebone, England, on 21 July 1971, a Wednesday. The Sun was in Cancer, so Cancer is their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Cancer. Charlotte turns 55 in 2026. 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 four water, three air, two fire and one earth. By modality the count is four cardinal, three fixed and three mutable. Sun, Moon and Venus all fall in Cancer. The tightest aspect is Sun sextile Pluto, about 0.6° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mars, Jupiter and Neptune were retrograde. Over the course of the day the Moon went from waning crescent to new.
StarMap's dataset holds 13 other people born on 21 July, among them Robin Williams, Erling Haaland and Cat Stevens.

Charlotte Gainsbourg’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Cancer
about 28° Cancer at midday
A Cancer Sun protects. For Charlotte Gainsbourg, home, memory and the people they have decided are theirs tend to sit at the centre of things, and they probably read a room before anyone speaks. Care is the strength of this Sun, and their task is to include themselves in it.
Moon sign
Cancer
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
The Moon is at home in Cancer. For Charlotte 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 Marylebone, England, at each hour of the day.
Charlotte Gainsbourg’s rising sign, by birth time

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 21 July 1971, computed for Marylebone, England.

Charlotte Gainsbourg’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Charlotte Gainsbourg’s private life.
With the Sun in Cancer, Charlotte Gainsbourg is likely to feel most alive when caring for people and places that matter to them, and purpose is tied to belonging somewhere. Feeling unneeded is the sore spot for this placement, and it can be taken personally. The whole day may go better after checking in on someone they love.
With the Moon in Cancer, Charlotte'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.
Mercury in Leo gives Charlotte a mind that thinks in confident, story-shaped terms and communicates with warmth and a bit of flair, drawing people in even when the subject is dry. Attachment to being right can make Charlotte more persuasive than accurate. A simple update, in their hands, can become something closer to a performance.
Venus in Cancer loves by nurturing, and for Charlotte that suggests valuing emotional safety over almost anything else in a relationship. Old hurts tend to linger here long after the person who caused them has changed. This is a Venus that feeds people, checks on people and quietly keeps score of who has shown up in return.
Mars in Aquarius acts on principle, and its anger surfaces most over unfairness or hypocrisy rather than personal slights. Charlotte can detach from a conflict so thoroughly that the other person feels shut out. The issue tends to get argued with heat while the relationship itself is treated with strange calm.
Jupiter in Scorpio
26° Scorpio 36' 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 Charlotte, 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 Gemini builds discipline around clear expression, and it often begins with doubt about whether an idea is good enough to say out loud. For Charlotte that would mean overpreparing before speaking or writing anything. Once the self-consciousness eases, the result can be someone unusually precise and credible with words.
Uranus in Libra
9° Libra 55' at midday
freedom, generational
Charlotte holds Uranus in Libra in common with many people born in the same stretch of years. Together that generation reshapes ideas of partnership, fairness and how relationships are arranged. Its personal side is a readiness to question traditional roles more openly than earlier generations felt able to.
Neptune in Sagittarius
0° Sagittarius 25' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Charlotte in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Virgo
27° Virgo 29' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Virgo is shared by Charlotte and many people born in the same span of years. That generation lives through deep change in work, in how services are organised, and in daily life itself. In one person that can be intensity around control, order and how much any one system can carry.
Aspects in Charlotte Gainsbourg’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 Pluto
about 0.6° at midday
Charlotte Gainsbourg'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.
Jupiter sextile Pluto
about 0.9° at midday
Meaningful growth without constant upheaval is what Jupiter sextile Pluto describes, with Charlotte's sense of possibility and depth working in concert. The opportunities that matter tend to come at a manageable pace, not all at once in a way that would be hard to absorb.
Sun trine Jupiter
about 1.4° at midday
With the Sun trine Jupiter, Charlotte's sense of self and instinct for growth support each other, which gives them a warm, expansive confidence. They are likely to be quick to see an opening and to make the most of it without forcing anything.
Mercury opposition Mars
about 2.4° at midday
Charlotte is likely to hold a point of view firmly and, with Mercury opposite Mars, to argue it harder than the moment calls for. Listening as actively as they argue resolves more than winning the point does.
Sun trine Neptune
about 2.4° at midday
Charlotte'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.
Mercury square Jupiter
about 2.9° at midday
Thinking can run ahead of the evidence when Mercury is square Jupiter, leading to overconfident claims or promises made faster than Charlotte can check them. Matching enthusiasm to what has been verified makes their confidence more durable, not less.

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?
