Born 17 March 1990, in Bray, Ireland. StarMap has no verified birth time yet.
Pisces Sun · Moon in Scorpio or Sagittarius
Hozier’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Hozier was born on Saturday, 17 March 1990, in Bray, Ireland. The Sun was in Pisces, so Pisces is their zodiac sign. The Moon was in Scorpio until about 04:55 and in Sagittarius afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Hozier turns 36 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Hozier, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
Water carries the most weight: four of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, against earth three, air two and fire none. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is four, three and two. Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all fall in Capricorn. They are slow planets, so the grouping is shared with people born around the same time. The tightest aspect is Sun conjunction Mercury, about 1.6° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Pluto was retrograde. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 22 other people born on 17 March, among them Nat King Cole, Kurt Russell and Rudolf Nureyev.

Hozier’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Pisces
about 26° 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 Hozier the kind of person people confide in. This placement needs boundaries as much as it needs the sea.
Moon sign
Scorpio or Sagittarius
Scorpio until about 04:55, then Sagittarius (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 04:55: Moon in Scorpio
The Moon in Scorpio feels everything and shows little. For Hozier that suggests trust that is slow, private and absolute; betrayal, once it happens, is not forgotten. This Moon is restored by intimacy without performance and by time alone to let things move.
Born after about 04:55: Moon in Sagittarius
A Sagittarius Moon feels best in motion. Open roads, new ideas and honest laughter probably lift Hozier, 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 Bray, Ireland, at each hour of the day.
Hozier’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Hozier 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 17 March 1990, computed for Bray, Ireland.

Hozier’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Hozier’s private life.
The Sun in Pisces finds purpose in imagination, compassion and things that cannot quite be measured, and Hozier'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 Scorpio or Sagittarius
Scorpio until about 04:55, then Sagittarius
needs and habits
Born before about 04:55: Moon in Scorpio
For Hozier, the Moon in Scorpio means emotional needs that run deep and private, and a preference for managing a hard feeling alone over explaining it while it is still raw. Trust builds slowly and is rarely given back once broken. Even among the people closest to them, this Moon is likely to need real privacy.
Born after about 04:55: Moon in Sagittarius
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 Hozier edgy faster than most people expect. With this Moon, the next trip tends to be planned before the current one has finished.
Mercury in Pisces thinks in images and impressions more than straight lines, and Hozier is likely to communicate through metaphor, tone and instinct rather than clean argument. Explaining a conclusion they nonetheless feel certain about can be the struggle. It is the kind of mind that knows something is off before it can say why.
Venus in Aquarius loves as a friend first, and values independence, shared ideas and a partner who allows plenty of room. Hozier 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.
Mars in Aquarius acts on principle, and its anger surfaces most over unfairness or hypocrisy rather than personal slights. Hozier can detach from a conflict so thoroughly that the other person feels shut out. The issue tends to get argued with heat while the relationship itself is treated with strange calm.
Jupiter in Cancer
1° Cancer 30' at midday
growth and excess
For Hozier, 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 is at home in Capricorn, a placement that builds discipline as naturally as breathing and often takes on responsibility earlier than most. The doubt, for Hozier, may be never quite believing that enough has been achieved to relax. Others tend to recognise this kind of authority well before it is claimed.
Uranus in Capricorn
9° Capricorn 15' at midday
freedom, generational
Many people within a few years of Hozier's age share Uranus in Capricorn, the mark of a generation that dismantles and rebuilds old institutions and structures of authority. Personally, that can mean scepticism towards any system that asks for trust without having shown why it deserves it.
Neptune in Capricorn
14° Capricorn 19' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Capricorn is shared by Hozier 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
17° Scorpio 35' 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. Hozier's own share may be an unusually deep comfort with intensity that others would find overwhelming.
Aspects in Hozier’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.
Sun conjunction Mercury
about 1.6° at midday
With the Sun conjunct Mercury, Hozier'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.
Mercury sextile Saturn
about 1.6° at midday
Turning a loose idea into something solid is easier with Mercury sextile Saturn, because Hozier's thinking and sense of structure work together. The clarity is quiet and practical, and it shows most when a plan has to work.
Sun sextile Saturn
about 3.1° at midday
Steady, unglamorous effort is likely to feel worthwhile to Hozier rather than draining, because it fits their sense of who they are. Consistency probably comes more easily to them than they give themselves credit for, especially once they stop waiting for permission to claim it.
Sun square Jupiter
about 4.9° at midday
Ambition can outpace what time and energy will realistically support, and with this aspect Hozier 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.
Venus conjunction Mars
about 6.5° at midday
With Venus conjunct Mars, affection and drive are closely linked, so, for Hozier, wanting something and going after it are likely to feel like one impulse. The aspect brings plenty of romantic and creative energy; its test is letting the wanting outlast the first chase.
Jupiter opposition Uranus
about 7.8° at midday
One side of this opposition wants Hozier to expand along a familiar path; the other wants them to leave it entirely for something untested. Neither impulse needs to win outright, and trying the new direction on a smaller scale first tends to 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?
