Honor Blackman’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Honor Blackman was born on Saturday, 22 August 1925, in London, England. That made Honor a Leo. The Moon changed sign at about 09:05, from Virgo to Libra; which of the two is the Moon sign depends on the hour of birth. Honor died on 5 April 2020, aged 94. 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 three earth, three water, two fire and no air, leaving out the Moon and Venus, whose signs depend on the birth time. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is two, three and three. Closest of the aspects is the opposition between Jupiter and Pluto, about 1.0° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Three planets were retrograde: Mercury, Jupiter and Uranus. The Moon was a waxing crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 19 other people born on 22 August, among them Ray Bradbury, Dua Lipa and Leni Riefenstahl.

Honor Blackman’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 28° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Honor Blackman that suggests warmth, generosity and a need to be seen for who they really are, running through much of what they do. This placement grows by learning that the light is not diminished when it is shared.
Moon sign
Virgo or Libra
Virgo until about 09:05, then Libra (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 09:05: Moon in Virgo
A Virgo Moon feels by fixing. When something is wrong, Honor 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.
Born after about 09:05: Moon in Libra
A Libra Moon feels through relationship. Harmony nearby tends to settle Honor, and conflict, even other people's, can unsettle them. What restores this Moon is beauty, fairness, and one person who truly listens.
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 London, England, at each hour of the day.
Honor Blackman’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Honor 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 22 August 1925, computed for London, England.

Honor Blackman’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Honor Blackman’s private life.
Purpose for Honor Blackman is probably tied to creating and being seen doing it, and a Leo Sun's vitality rises the moment there is an audience, even an audience of one. The tension is losing steam when no one is watching. The giveaway is often the extra effort that goes into something the moment someone notices them making it.
Moon in Virgo or Libra
Virgo until about 09:05, then Libra
needs and habits
Born before about 09:05: Moon in Virgo
The Moon in Virgo runs towards order, and a messy space or an unfinished list can unsettle Honor's mood more than most people would guess. Small, useful tasks are calming. The trouble can start when Honor's own needs become another chore to get right instead of something to enjoy.
Born after about 09:05: Moon in Libra
A Libra Moon needs harmony in the immediate surroundings to feel settled day to day, and a tense conversation nearby can throw off Honor's whole afternoon. Comfort comes from pleasant company and pleasant spaces. The habit to watch is smoothing things over before they have worked out what they want.
For Honor, Mercury in Virgo points to thinking that is precise and attentive to detail, and to clear communication, because the facts have usually been checked first. The catch is fixating on a small error and losing sight of the larger point. This is the placement that edits a message three times before sending something everyone else would have sent in one go.
Venus in Virgo or Libra
Virgo until about 01:30, then Libra
love and values
Born before about 01:30: Venus in Virgo
With Venus in Virgo, Honor is likely to love through small, practical acts of service and to value competence and reliability in a partner. People with this Venus tend to be hardest on those they love most, and can mistake giving notes for giving care. They may try to fix a partner's problem before simply listening to it.
Born after about 01:30: Venus in Libra
Venus in Libra loves with an instinct for balance and partnership, and Honor probably values harmony, fairness and someone who makes an effort to look good together. The risk with this Venus is staying in a relationship for the sake of the pairing itself. Honor may give up a personal preference before anyone has even asked.
Mars in Virgo acts carefully and precisely, preferring to get a task right over getting it done fast, and its anger usually comes from things being done sloppily. When upset, Honor is more likely to criticise than to confront. A clipped tone often signals frustration well before anything is said directly.
Jupiter in Capricorn
13° Capricorn 11' at midday ℞
growth and excess
Jupiter in Capricorn grows through long-term discipline, and Honor would probably rather build slowly and properly than quickly. The overreach is taking on more responsibility than any one person should reasonably carry. The authority this Jupiter brings is slow and hard-won, the kind people tend to trust more the longer they know someone.
Saturn in Scorpio builds its discipline around trust and control, and for Honor 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 Pisces
24° Pisces 27' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Honor has Uranus in Pisces in common with a generation. That generation transforms spirituality, art and collective imagination, often blurring boundaries that earlier ones kept firm. In one person it may be noticed as an openness to ideas that resist neat categories.
Neptune in Leo
22° Leo 34' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Leo is the imagination of an age group, not of Honor alone. It dreams in terms of fame, spectacle and larger-than-life self-expression. The trace of it in one person is a pull towards performance as a way of feeling real.
Pluto in Cancer
14° Cancer 11' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Honor 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 Honor Blackman’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 opposition Pluto
about 1.0° at midday
In this opposition, the urge to expand outward meets a need to control the process so tightly that it limits the very growth being sought. When Honor Blackman loosens their grip on the outcome, the opportunity itself tends to get through.
Mercury conjunction Mars
about 1.8° at midday
With Mercury conjunct Mars, thinking and the drive to act are closely linked, so ideas turn into words and decisions almost immediately. It makes Honor quick and direct in conversation, and the discipline is letting a thought settle before saying it out loud.
Mars sextile Saturn
about 2.9° at midday
Sustained effort feels manageable, not draining, when Mars and Saturn are in sextile, and Honor has that combination of drive and discipline. What results is quiet, dependable follow-through, the kind that gets a long project finished while flashier approaches give out halfway.
Jupiter sextile Saturn
about 4.2° at midday
A workable, grounded kind of optimism comes from this sextile, in which Honor'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 5.2° at midday
Discipline and the capacity for transformation work together under Saturn trine Pluto, so Honor 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 Mercury
about 5.4° at midday
With the Sun conjunct Mercury, Honor's sense of self and way of thinking are fused, so an opinion can feel like a statement of who they are. They are likely to speak their mind readily, and telling a passing thought apart from their identity is a practice worth keeping up.
