Dixie Carter’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Dixie Carter was born in McLemoresville, Tennessee, on 25 May 1939, a Thursday. The Sun was in Gemini, so Gemini was their zodiac sign. The Moon was in Leo until about 11:50 and in Virgo afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Dixie died on 10 April 2010, aged 70. StarMap has no verified birth time for Dixie, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
Of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, four are in earth signs, two in fire, two in air and one in water. By modality the count is four fixed, three cardinal and two mutable. Taurus holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Mercury, Venus and Uranus. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mercury and Uranus: a conjunction, about 0.4° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. One planet was retrograde: Neptune. The Moon was at its first quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 16 other people born on 25 May, among them Ian McKellen, Cillian Murphy and Mike Myers. Ian McKellen was born on the very same day. Wikidata links Dixie with one person in the dataset: Hal Holbrook (married from 1984 until 2010).

Dixie Carter’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Gemini
about 3° Gemini at midday
A Gemini Sun connects. Ideas, people and conversations are its element, and Dixie Carter probably learns by talking things through. This placement is happiest with two projects and a question nobody has answered yet.
Moon sign
Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 11:50, then Virgo (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 11:50: Moon in Leo
A Leo Moon feels with its whole heart and needs that to be noticed. Warm attention tends to fill Dixie up, and being overlooked can empty them faster than anything. Play, creativity and loyal friends usually bring them back to themselves.
Born after about 11:50: Moon in Virgo
A Virgo Moon feels by fixing. When something is wrong, Dixie is likely to look for the practical cause and to calm down by tidying, planning or being useful. The lesson of this Moon is to accept help without a to-do list attached.
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 McLemoresville, Tennessee, at each hour of the day.
Dixie Carter’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Dixie 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 25 May 1939, computed for McLemoresville, Tennessee.

Dixie Carter’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Dixie Carter’s private life.
For Dixie Carter, the Sun in Gemini means vitality that comes from variety, and purpose that feels most real when they are learning or explaining something new. What suffers is focus, with energy scattered across too many half-finished things at once. Several projects and three hobbies on the go at the same time would be in character.
Moon in Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 11:50, then Virgo
needs and habits
Born before about 11:50: 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 Dixie faster than a hard day with an audience. The mood tends to lift visibly the moment someone compliments something small Dixie did.
Born after about 11:50: Moon in Virgo
The Moon in Virgo runs towards order, and a messy space or an unfinished list can unsettle Dixie's mood more than most people would guess. Small, useful tasks are calming. The trouble can start when Dixie's own needs become another chore to get right instead of something to enjoy.
With Mercury in Taurus, Dixie is likely to think slowly and thoroughly, and a conclusion once reached is rarely revisited without good reason. The communication style is plain and practical rather than showy. A new idea that clashes with what they already believe may have to wait a while for a hearing.
Venus in Taurus loves steadily and shows it through consistency, touch and shared comfort rather than grand gestures, and in Dixie's chart it is likely to value loyalty and things built to last. Because change feels like loss, this Venus can hold on to a relationship past its natural end. Months in, people with this placement tend to remember exactly how someone takes their coffee.
Mars in Aquarius acts on principle, and its anger surfaces most over unfairness or hypocrisy rather than personal slights. Dixie 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 Aries
2° Aries 36' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Aries grows through bold, direct action and taking the first step before feeling fully ready. Dixie's overreach, on this reading, is starting more than can realistically be finished. A burst of confidence tends to get a new venture off the ground, whether or not the groundwork is in place.
Saturn in Aries builds discipline around learning to act with patience instead of pure impulse. For Dixie, that suggests a doubt that takes the form of second-guessing: too fast, or not fast enough? Confidence in their own initiative tends to come slowly, once the rush goes out of every decision.
Uranus in Taurus
18° Taurus 46' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Taurus is a generational placement that Dixie shares with many people born within a few years. That generation rethinks ownership, land and what security means, often through technology that unsettles older arrangements. Personally, that may be a reluctance to prize things simply because an older generation did.
Neptune in Virgo
20° Virgo 33' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune moves slowly, so Dixie shares its place in Virgo with people born years either side. The imagination of this generation turns towards service, craft and idealised routines of self-improvement. In one life it can mean chasing an impossibly perfect daily practice.
Pluto in Cancer
29° Cancer 36' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Dixie to an era rather than describing one person. Those born in it live through deep transformation of family, home and nationhood. What an individual may carry is intensity around belonging and who counts as family.
Aspects in Dixie Carter’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.
Mercury conjunction Uranus
about 0.4° at midday
Dixie Carter's thinking is likely to be quick, original and a step ahead of convention, with insights that arrive suddenly rather than through slow reasoning. Mercury conjunct Uranus makes for inventive thinking, and the courtesy worth learning is explaining the leap so that other people can follow it too.
Mars opposition Pluto
about 0.6° at midday
Mars opposite Pluto can draw Dixie away from simply asserting their will and into power struggles with people who seem to be testing them. Staying focused on the goal, and not on winning the confrontation, resolves more of what is at stake.
Sun sextile Jupiter
about 1.0° at midday
Optimism is part of who Dixie is, and it tends to show them open doors, provided they are willing to walk through. With some deliberate effort behind it, the outlook of a Sun-Jupiter sextile becomes momentum that carries past the first burst of enthusiasm.
Mercury trine Neptune
about 1.4° at midday
Dixie probably has a natural gift for metaphor, storytelling and intuitive leaps, the work of thinking and imagination in easy partnership. With Mercury trine Neptune, communicating something hard to put into words comes easily, in a way that other people often find memorable.
Mars sextile Jupiter
about 2.4° at midday
There is confident, well-aimed energy in this sextile, and not much wasted effort, since Dixie's drive and optimism pull together. Taking the initiative suits Dixie, above all when they commit to one goal and do not scatter their energy across several.
Jupiter trine Pluto
about 3.0° at midday
In this trine, Dixie's optimism and capacity for transformation feed each other, and the combination can give them the power to turn a big vision into lasting change. The growth it brings tends to be deep as well as broad, which is why the bigger changes usually stick.
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?
