George Stevens’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
18 December 1904 was a Sunday: the day George Stevens was born in Oakland, California. That made George a Sagittarius, with the Moon in Taurus. George died on 8 March 1975, aged 70. No verified birth time is on file for George; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
By element the count is four air, three fire, two earth and one water. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is four, three and three. The tightest aspect is Mercury square Mars, about 0.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Two planets were retrograde: Neptune and Pluto. The Moon was waxing gibbous, between first quarter and full.
StarMap's dataset holds 20 other people born on 18 December, among them Steven Spielberg, Brad Pitt and Christina Aguilera.

George Stevens’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Sagittarius
about 26° Sagittarius at midday
A Sagittarius Sun seeks. Meaning, distance and the bigger picture are likely to pull George Stevens forward, and the honesty of this placement is a kind of generosity. Its lesson is that the journey also needs somewhere to land.
Moon sign
Taurus
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Taurus Moon feels through the body and its surroundings. On this reading, good food, familiar places and slow evenings are what restore George, and sudden change lands hard. Once they feel safe, they can be the steadiest person in the room.
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 Oakland, California, at each hour of the day.
George Stevens’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for George 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 18 December 1904, computed for Oakland, California.

George Stevens’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about George Stevens’s private life.
Growth, travel and ideas bigger than daily life are where George Stevens's Sagittarius Sun finds purpose, and their energy tends to lift the moment there is somewhere new to go. Familiarity is what wears on this placement. A few months into any routine, however good it is, restlessness usually sets in.
A Taurus Moon needs routine, familiar food and physical comfort to feel steady from day to day. A sudden change of schedule probably unsettles George more than they let on. A good bed, a favourite mug or the same coffee order can turn an unsteady morning around.
Mercury in Capricorn thinks methodically, and George tends to communicate in a measured, practical way that people trust. The focus on a useful conclusion can be so strong that ideas which have not yet proven their worth are dismissed. George will often get straight to the point in a conversation other people expected to be casual.
Venus in Aquarius loves as a friend first, and values independence, shared ideas and a partner who allows plenty of room. George may keep just enough distance that closeness feels slightly out of reach, even to them. This Venus can prize a partner's individuality more than the intimacy between them.
In George's chart, Mars in Libra acts diplomatically and prefers negotiation to confrontation, and its anger tends to stay buried until it is too big to ignore. Avoided consistently, conflict leaves resentment building underneath the calm surface. The pattern is saying yes to something that rankled, then feeling it later.
Jupiter in Aries
20° Aries 15' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Aries grows through bold, direct action and taking the first step before feeling fully ready. George'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.
With Saturn in Aquarius, George's discipline probably gathers around belonging to a group on their own terms; it is the placement of the one-time outsider. The doubt means holding back the stranger ideas until there is no risk of mockery. The outsider often ends up as a trusted voice in exactly the kind of community that once seemed unlikely to accept them.
Uranus in Sagittarius
29° Sagittarius 53' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about George 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 Cancer
7° Cancer 03' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Cancer is shared by George 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
20° Gemini 35' at midday ℞
power, generational
George 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 George Stevens’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 square Mars
about 0.2° at midday
With Mercury square Mars, thought and impulse can clash, and sharp words get said before George Stevens has fully thought them through. The remedy is a short pause between the thought and the sentence, which changes very little except the outcome.
Jupiter sextile Pluto
about 0.3° at midday
Meaningful growth without constant upheaval is what Jupiter sextile Pluto describes, with George'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.
Mars trine Saturn
about 1.0° at midday
Staying power on long, difficult goals is what Mars trine Saturn offers, with drive and discipline reinforcing each other. George is likely to get more done, more consistently, than the visible effort would suggest, which is a quiet advantage over time.
Jupiter sextile Saturn
about 3.0° at midday
A workable, grounded kind of optimism comes from this sextile, in which George's sense of possibility and sense of structure assist each other. The plans they make tend to hold together, even under the sort of pressure that scatters looser ones.
Saturn trine Pluto
about 3.3° at midday
Discipline and the capacity for transformation work together under Saturn trine Pluto, so George can rebuild after a setback with a strength that outlasts the difficulty. Such endurance is quiet and formidable, and other people tend to notice it only in hindsight, once the hard period has passed.
Sun conjunction Uranus
about 3.4° at midday
Independence is central to George's identity with the Sun conjunct Uranus, along with a resistance to being defined by anyone else's idea of them. It makes them original and hard to predict, and the catch is a restlessness with routines that could serve them well.
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?
