Hardwell’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Hardwell was born on Thursday, 7 January 1988, in Breda, Netherlands. The Sun was in Capricorn, so Capricorn is their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Leo. Hardwell turns 38 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 fire, three earth, two water and one air. Cardinal signs hold four, fixed signs four and mutable signs two. Capricorn holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Sun, Mercury and Neptune. Closest of the aspects is the sextile between Venus and Jupiter, about 0.7° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Every planet was moving direct. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 19 other people born on 7 January, among them Jeremy Renner, Nicolas Cage and Ichirou Mizuki. Haley Bennett was born on the very same day.

Hardwell’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Capricorn
about 16° Capricorn at midday
A Capricorn Sun endures. Ambition, patience and a dry sense of humour are what tend to carry Hardwell up long slopes other people give up on. The placement learns, eventually, that rest is part of the climb.
Moon sign
Leo
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Leo Moon feels with its whole heart and needs that to be noticed. Warm attention tends to fill Hardwell 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 Breda, Netherlands, at each hour of the day.

Hardwell’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Hardwell’s private life.
With the Sun in Capricorn, Hardwell is likely to find purpose in building a reputation and a structure that will outlast them, with a vitality that is steady rather than showy. The trap can be measuring their worth by output alone. They may well work through tiredness instead of naming it, until someone else has to point it out.
A Leo Moon needs warmth and acknowledgement worked into everyday life, not just on big occasions. A day with no one noticing can drain Hardwell faster than a hard day with an audience. The mood tends to lift visibly the moment someone compliments something small Hardwell did.
Mercury in Capricorn thinks methodically, and Hardwell 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. Hardwell 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. Hardwell 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 Hardwell's chart, Mars in Scorpio acts with focus and intensity, and its anger, when it surfaces, tends to be controlled, cutting and hard to forget. The risk with this Mars is holding on to a grievance well past its useful life. A calm exterior gives little warning before a sharp response.
Jupiter in Aries
20° Aries 40' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Aries grows through bold, direct action and taking the first step before feeling fully ready. Hardwell'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 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, Hardwell 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
28° Sagittarius 02' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Hardwell 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
8° Capricorn 01' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Capricorn is shared by Hardwell 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
12° Scorpio 09' 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. Hardwell's own share may be an unusually deep comfort with intensity that others would find overwhelming.
Aspects in Hardwell’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.
Venus sextile Jupiter
about 0.7° at midday
Warmth and generosity come naturally to Hardwell and stop short of overextending, because affection and optimism work together in this sextile. Call it comfortable, unforced goodwill, the kind that makes people feel welcome without any performance being needed.
Saturn conjunction Uranus
about 1.8° at midday
With discipline and the need for independence fused, Hardwell 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 Mars
about 3.8° at midday
Speaking up quickly and clearly when it matters comes easily to Hardwell, since thinking and drive work in step. That plain directness serves them well in fast-moving conversations and quick decisions alike.
Sun sextile Pluto
about 4.2° at midday
Hardwell'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.
Sun square Jupiter
about 4.3° at midday
Ambition can outpace what time and energy will realistically support, and with this aspect Hardwell may promise more than can be delivered and then walk it back. The lesson of a Sun-Jupiter square is scaling a good instinct to a size that holds.
Mercury square Jupiter
about 4.8° at midday
Thinking can run ahead of the evidence when Mercury is square Jupiter, leading to overconfident claims or promises made faster than Hardwell can check them. Matching enthusiasm to what has been verified makes their confidence more durable, not less.
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?
