Derrick Rose’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Derrick Rose was born on Tuesday, 4 October 1988, in Chicago, Illinois. Their zodiac sign is Libra. The Moon was in Cancer until about 03:30 and in Leo afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Derrick turns 38 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for Derrick; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Of the eight planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, three are in fire signs, three in air, one in earth and one in water. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is four, one and three. The tightest aspect is Saturn conjunction Uranus, about 0.5° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mercury, Mars and Jupiter were retrograde. The Moon was a waning crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 16 other people born on 4 October, among them Susan Sarandon, Charlton Heston and Christoph Waltz. Melissa Benoist was born on the very same day.
Derrick Rose’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Libra
about 11° Libra at midday
A Libra Sun balances. Fairness, beauty and the quality of relationships tend to shape Derrick Rose's decisions, and this is a placement that can see both sides of almost anything. The growth lies in choosing a side when it counts.
Moon sign
Cancer or Leo
Cancer until about 03:30, then Leo (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 03:30: Moon in Cancer
The Moon is at home in Cancer. For Derrick 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.
Born after about 03:30: Moon in Leo
A Leo Moon feels with its whole heart and needs that to be noticed. Warm attention tends to fill Derrick up, and being overlooked can empty them faster than anything. Play, creativity and loyal friends usually bring them back to themselves.
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 Chicago, Illinois, at each hour of the day.

Derrick Rose’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Derrick Rose’s private life.
Sun in Libra
11° Libra 40' at midday
purpose and vitality
With the Sun in Libra, Derrick Rose's vitality is likely to rise in good company, and purpose to feel real when they are creating balance or beauty with other people. The risk is losing their own direction while managing everyone else's. Deciding alone is probably harder for them than deciding with a second opinion in the room.
Moon in Cancer or Leo
Cancer until about 03:30, then Leo
needs and habits
Born before about 03:30: Moon in Cancer
With the Moon in Cancer, Derrick'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.
Born after about 03:30: 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 Derrick faster than a hard day with an audience. The mood tends to lift visibly the moment someone compliments something small Derrick did.
Mercury in Libra
24° Libra 58' at midday ℞
mind and voice
Mercury in Libra thinks by weighing both sides, and Derrick tends to communicate diplomatically, often finding the version of an idea that will land well with whoever is listening. Settling on an opinion can take so long that the moment for it passes. They may change their mind in the middle of a conversation because the other point had merit.
Venus in Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 08:15, then Virgo
love and values
Born before about 08:15: Venus in Leo
Venus in Leo loves generously and openly, and values being someone's clear favourite above almost anything else on offer. For Derrick, 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.
Born after about 08:15: Venus in Virgo
With Venus in Virgo, Derrick 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 Aries
3° Aries 21' at midday ℞
drive and anger
For Derrick, Mars in Aries points to acting immediately and decisively, with anger that tends to flare fast, hot and honest before it clears. The downside is acting before a situation has been thought all the way through. The argument or the project tends to start the second the impulse arrives, with little patience for waiting.
Jupiter in Gemini
5° Gemini 57' at midday ℞
growth and excess
Jupiter in Gemini grows through learning and exposure to as many ideas as can be gathered, and its optimism is contagious in conversation. Derrick may overreach by knowing a little about everything and claiming more certainty than the depth supports. This is someone who can be the best-read person in the room on subjects they have never studied closely.
Saturn in Sagittarius
26° Sagittarius 55' at midday
discipline and doubt
Saturn in Sagittarius builds discipline around belief and meaning, testing a big idea hard before committing to it. In front of people who might challenge a conviction, Derrick is likely to hedge. Over time, someone with this Saturn often becomes a credible voice on the very questions they once felt they had no right to answer.
Uranus in Sagittarius
27° Sagittarius 24' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Derrick 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 Capricorn
7° Capricorn 29' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Capricorn is shared by Derrick and about fourteen years of births. The imagination of the generation questions or idealises authority and ambition, often shaped by wide disillusionment with institutions. The personal version may be an uneasy relationship with conventional success.
Pluto in Scorpio
11° Scorpio 17' at midday
power, generational
Pluto is at home in Scorpio, and the generation born with it lives through profound upheavals in power, secrecy and shared taboos. Derrick's own share may be an unusually deep comfort with intensity that others would find overwhelming.
Aspects in Derrick Rose’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.
Saturn conjunction Uranus
about 0.5° at midday
With discipline and the need for independence fused, Derrick Rose tends to build structure their own way instead of inheriting someone else's. Saturn conjunct Uranus makes them an original builder, and the challenge is letting a good structure stay flexible and not harden into another rule.
Mercury sextile Saturn
about 1.9° at midday
Turning a loose idea into something solid is easier with Mercury sextile Saturn, because Derrick's thinking and sense of structure work together. The clarity is quiet and practical, and it shows most when a plan has to work.
Mercury sextile Uranus
about 2.4° at midday
Fresh angles on ordinary problems come easily to Derrick, because thinking and originality are friends here. Inventiveness takes little effort with this aspect, and it makes routine problems more interesting than they first appear.
Mars sextile Jupiter
about 2.6° at midday
There is confident, well-aimed energy in this sextile, and not much wasted effort, since Derrick's drive and optimism pull together. Taking the initiative suits Derrick, above all when they commit to one goal and do not scatter their energy across several.
Venus trine Uranus
about 2.8° at midday
Closeness does not have to feel confining for Derrick, 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.
Venus trine Saturn
about 3.3° at midday
A steady, dependable way of loving, one that people trust, is what this trine gives Derrick, since affection and commitment hold each other up. Relationships built on it tend to last, often well past the point where less committed people would have moved on.
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.
