Hideaki Kitajima’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Hideaki Kitajima was born in Narashino, Japan, on 23 May 1978, a Tuesday. That makes Hideaki a Gemini, with the Moon in Sagittarius. Hideaki turns 48 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for Hideaki; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Fire carries the most weight: four of the ten planets, against water three, air two and earth one. By modality the count is four fixed, three cardinal and three mutable. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mars and Neptune: a trine, about 1.1° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Uranus, Neptune and Pluto were retrograde. Over the course of the day the Moon went from full to waning gibbous.
StarMap's dataset holds 15 other people born on 23 May, among them Anatoly Karpov, Lena Meyer-Landrut and Rubens Barrichello.

Hideaki Kitajima’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Gemini
about 1° Gemini at midday
A Gemini Sun connects. Ideas, people and conversations are its element, and Hideaki Kitajima probably learns by talking things through. This placement is happiest with two projects and a question nobody has answered yet.
Moon sign
Sagittarius
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Sagittarius Moon feels best in motion. Open roads, new ideas and honest laughter probably lift Hideaki, and being fenced in by other people's moods tends to weigh them down. This Moon needs room, and someone who thinks that is fine.
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 Narashino, Japan, at each hour of the day.

Hideaki Kitajima’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Hideaki Kitajima’s private life.
For Hideaki Kitajima, 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.
The Moon in Sagittarius needs room to move and a bit of novelty in its routine to feel right. A schedule with no give in it can make Hideaki edgy faster than most people expect. With this Moon, the next trip tends to be planned before the current one has finished.
With Mercury in Taurus, Hideaki 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 Cancer loves by nurturing, and for Hideaki that suggests valuing emotional safety over almost anything else in a relationship. Old hurts tend to linger here long after the person who caused them has changed. This is a Venus that feeds people, checks on people and quietly keeps score of who has shown up in return.
Mars in Leo acts with confidence and wants the effort to be visible, and for Hideaki its anger is likely to flare when pride or loyalty is challenged. The tension is turning a disagreement into a matter of ego. Criticism of the work can feel personal to a Leo Mars, even when it was not meant that way.
Jupiter in Cancer
7° Cancer 16' at midday
growth and excess
For Hideaki, 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 Leo builds discipline around self-expression, and in Hideaki's chart this placement often starts with a fear of being laughed at or overlooked. The doubt tends to show as playing down achievements before anyone else can. The confidence this placement builds is hard-won and unshowy, and it tends to arrive once the waiting for permission stops.
Uranus in Scorpio
13° Scorpio 38' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Much of Hideaki's age group has Uranus in Scorpio. It changes attitudes to power, secrecy and what is held in common, often while living through upheavals in institutions once considered permanent. In an individual it tends to be a low tolerance for hidden agendas.
Neptune in Sagittarius
17° Sagittarius 22' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Hideaki in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
14° Libra 10' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Hideaki belongs to, because Pluto moves so slowly. That generation transforms ideas of partnership, fairness and what people owe one another. Personally it can be an intense need for relationships to be fundamentally fair.
Aspects in Hideaki Kitajima’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.
Mars trine Neptune
about 1.1° at midday
An inspired, almost effortless way of pursuing creative or compassionate goals belongs to Mars trine Neptune, which puts Hideaki Kitajima's drive and imagination in step. Energy and vision arrive together, so starting a meaningful project is likely to feel far less daunting than it looks from outside.
Mercury sextile Jupiter
about 2.3° at midday
Hideaki's thinking and optimism keep easy company, which gives their conversation a natural, engaging breadth. Curiosity does much of the work with this aspect, opening doors in conversation that a narrower focus would have missed.
Mercury opposition Uranus
about 4.0° at midday
With Mercury opposite Uranus, Hideaki's unconventional ideas meet other people's fixed positions, which can turn a good insight into an unnecessary standoff. Presenting the idea as an option rather than a challenge tends to land better.
Mars sextile Pluto
about 4.3° at midday
This sextile joins drive to depth, so resilience and follow-through are likely to be available to Hideaki without constant conflict. Hideaki is likely to handle pressure better than most, and at a lower cost than expected, largely because a fight is rarely needed to prove the point.
Mars square Uranus
about 4.8° at midday
This square can make drive turn abrupt, leading to sudden decisions or breaks that surprise Hideaki as much as they surprise everyone nearby. A brief pause before the impulsive move keeps the courage and loses the recklessness.
Mars conjunction Saturn
about 5.9° at midday
With Mars conjunct Saturn, drive is disciplined and controlled, and Hideaki is likely to channel energy into long, patient effort in place of short bursts. It makes them capable of sustained work. The risk is that caution talks them out of acting when the moment calls for it.
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.
