Gilbert Gottfried’s birth chart
Born 28 February 1955, in Coney Island, New York. StarMap has no verified birth time yet.
Pisces Sun · Moon in Taurus or Gemini
Gilbert Gottfried’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
28 February 1955 was a Monday: the day Gilbert Gottfried was born in Coney Island, New York. The Sun was in Pisces, so Pisces was their zodiac sign. The Moon was in Taurus until about 14:25 and in Gemini afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Gilbert died on 12 April 2022, aged 67. 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, two earth, two air and one fire, leaving out the Moon, whose sign depends on the birth time. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is four, four and one. Closest of the aspects is the trine between Jupiter and Saturn, about 0.9° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Four planets were retrograde: Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Over the course of the day the Moon went from waxing crescent to first quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 22 other people born on 28 February, among them Frank Gehry, Dino Zoff and Emmelie de Forest.

Gilbert Gottfried’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Pisces
about 9° Pisces at midday
A Pisces Sun feels it all. Imagination, empathy and a porous sense of where the self ends and others begin tend to make Gilbert Gottfried the kind of person people confide in. This placement needs boundaries as much as it needs the sea.
Moon sign
Taurus or Gemini
Taurus until about 14:25, then Gemini (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 14:25: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon feels through the body and its surroundings. On this reading, good food, familiar places and slow evenings are what restore Gilbert, and sudden change lands hard. Once they feel safe, they can be the steadiest person in the room.
Born after about 14:25: Moon in Gemini
The Moon in Gemini processes feeling by naming it. For Gilbert, talking, writing and switching perspective are likely ways to settle, and silence can make small worries loud. They probably need people who let them think out loud.
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 Coney Island, New York, at each hour of the day.
Gilbert Gottfried’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Gilbert 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 28 February 1955, computed for Coney Island, New York.

Gilbert Gottfried’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Gilbert Gottfried’s private life.
The Sun in Pisces finds purpose in imagination, compassion and things that cannot quite be measured, and Gilbert Gottfried's vitality tends to ebb and flow with their surroundings. The thing to watch is losing their own direction inside someone else's story. There may be days when they feel unstoppable, and others when they need to disappear for a while.
Moon in Taurus or Gemini
Taurus until about 14:25, then Gemini
needs and habits
Born before about 14:25: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon needs routine, familiar food and physical comfort to feel steady from day to day. A sudden change of schedule probably unsettles Gilbert more than they let on. A good bed, a favourite mug or the same coffee order can turn an unsteady morning around.
Born after about 14:25: Moon in Gemini
The Moon in Gemini runs its daily habits on conversation and mental stimulation, and Gilbert is likely to settle by talking a worry through rather than sitting with it quietly. A day with no one to talk to can leave them restless. The habit is to message a friend the moment something comes to mind, before deciding what to think about it.
In Gilbert's chart, Mercury in Aquarius describes thinking that is original and a step removed from convention, and communication that works best through ideas rather than small talk. The stubborn streak is holding a position out of principle after the evidence has moved on. In a group, this is the person who asks the question nobody else thought to ask.
For Gilbert, Venus in Capricorn means loving in a measured, committed way and valuing stability, ambition and someone to build a life with. The trap is treating a relationship like a project to manage rather than let unfold. With this Venus, love comes out more easily as providing and planning than as words said out loud.
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 Gilbert 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 Cancer
20° Cancer 18' at midday ℞
growth and excess
For Gilbert, Jupiter in Cancer means growing by nurturing others and building a home that people want to return to. The excess can be protecting loved ones past the point they need it. Generosity here takes the form of home-cooked meals, open doors and an instinct to take in anyone who needs somewhere to land.
Saturn in Scorpio builds its discipline around trust and control, and for Gilbert letting go of either is unlikely to come easily. The doubt is bracing for betrayal even in relationships that have given no reason for it. Comfort with vulnerability can come in the end, and the work it takes is seldom seen by others.
Uranus in Cancer
24° Cancer 02' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Cancer belongs to an age group rather than to Gilbert alone. Its mark is a generation that redefines home and family, departing from the structures the previous generation grew up inside. At the personal level it is read as a pull to build family life differently.
Neptune in Libra
27° Libra 59' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Gilbert among them. It idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by images of love on screen that outpace real relationships. The personal echo is a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.
Pluto in Leo
25° Leo 14' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Leo is held by a whole generation, one that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. At a personal scale, for Gilbert, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Gilbert Gottfried’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.
Jupiter trine Saturn
about 0.9° at midday
Optimism and discipline reinforce each other in this trine, which lets Gilbert Gottfried pursue big goals with steady follow-through. Growth of this kind tends to be gradual and durable, not sudden and fragile, the sort of progress that survives a difficult year.
Venus opposition Uranus
about 1.2° at midday
Gilbert may want intimacy and still feel a reflex to protect their freedom the moment things seem too certain; that is the tension of Venus opposite Uranus. Naming the need for space early tends to work better than acting on it as sudden distance.
Venus square Neptune
about 2.7° at midday
Under Venus square Neptune, affection can blur into an idealised picture of love, and disappointment follows when a real person or relationship falls short of the dream. Gilbert's task is to love what is there, which tends to prove more durable than loving the fantasy.
Saturn trine Uranus
about 2.9° at midday
This trine lets Gilbert build lasting structures that still leave room for change, because discipline and independence are allies here. Consistency and originality coexist with ease, and neither of them has to be given up to make room for the other.
Mars opposition Neptune
about 3.6° at midday
Gilbert may find direct action pulling one way and, the other way, a tendency to lose momentum in doubt or in an unclear picture of what is wanted. Getting specific about the goal, even roughly, tends to restore the energy that vagueness drains.
Jupiter conjunction Uranus
about 3.7° at midday
Growth comes suddenly and by unconventional routes with Jupiter conjunct Uranus, and Gilbert is likely to be drawn to opportunities that break from the expected path. Openness to change is the strength. Following through on one bold idea before moving on to the next is the discipline.
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.
