Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
28 July 1929 was a Sunday: the day Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was born in Southampton, New York. That made Jacqueline a Leo, with the Moon in Aries and Scorpio rising. Jacqueline died on 19 May 1994, aged 64. The birth time, 14:30, comes from Astro-Databank with a Rodden rating of A, which means it was given from memory by the person or someone close to them.
Fire carries the most weight: five of the ten planets, against earth two, air two and water one. By modality the count is five mutable, three cardinal and two fixed. Closest of the aspects is the trine between Moon and Saturn, 1.0° from exact. Two planets were retrograde: Saturn and Uranus. The Moon was at its last quarter.

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
5° Leo 09'
A Leo Sun shines. For Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis 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
Aries
25° Aries 36'
With the Moon in Aries, Jacqueline is likely to feel fast and forgive fast. Anger comes up quickly and passes just as quickly, and feeling needs a physical outlet. This is a Moon soothed by action, not by talking it over.
Rising sign
Scorpio
17° Scorpio 57'
Scorpio rising comes across as intense and self-contained. People tend to sense that there is more going on than Jacqueline is saying; this rising sign keeps more back than it shows.

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign and house: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis’s private life.
Purpose for Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis 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.
The Sun in the ninth house lets travel, ideas and a bigger philosophy of life shape the person Jacqueline is becoming, more than any single job or role could. They need room to explore new places and new questions, or they start to feel smaller and duller than they are.
The Moon in Aries keeps day-to-day needs simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. For Jacqueline, comfort probably comes from action rather than discussion. The instinct of this Moon is to pace the room or go for a walk rather than sit with a feeling until it passes on its own.
The Moon in the fifth house can let Jacqueline's feelings out most freely through creativity, romance and play, and without an outlet somewhere those feelings may quietly build up. Play is probably part of how Jacqueline keeps their balance, not a luxury to be skipped for long.
Mercury in Leo gives Jacqueline a mind that thinks in confident, story-shaped terms and communicates with warmth and a bit of flair, drawing people in even when the subject is dry. Attachment to being right can make Jacqueline more persuasive than accurate. A simple update, in their hands, can become something closer to a performance.
With Mercury in the ninth house, Jacqueline thinks in big frameworks and enjoys following an idea all the way to where it leads, even if that means a change of mind along the way. Foreign ideas, languages and philosophies excite them more than familiar, well-worn ones.
Venus in Gemini loves through conversation, wit and mental connection, and tends to find a dull partner harder to stay with than a challenging one. Jacqueline probably values variety and being kept interested. Attention may wander with this Venus, and that can be treated as more serious than it is. Banter is the natural way to flirt here, more than anything more direct.
Venus in the eighth house wants intimacy that goes all the way down, not the kind that stays comfortably light, and Jacqueline is inclined to build trust slowly and value it highly once it exists. The placement suggests that whatever Jacqueline shares with someone means more when the bond behind it is solid.
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, Jacqueline is more likely to criticise than to confront. A clipped tone often signals frustration well before anything is said directly.
Mars in the tenth house makes ambition the driving force, and Jacqueline is apt to push hard towards a public goal once their sights are set on it. Competition at work sharpens their focus where it might intimidate someone else, and a proper challenge can bring out Jacqueline's best effort.
Jupiter in Gemini
9° Gemini 34' · seventh house
growth and excess
Jupiter in Gemini grows through learning and exposure to as many ideas as can be gathered, and its optimism is contagious in conversation. Jacqueline may overreach by knowing a little about everything and claiming more certainty than the depth supports. This is someone who can be the best-read person in the room on subjects they have never studied closely.
With Jupiter in the seventh house, Jacqueline is apt to find that their relationships broaden their world, often through new people, places or ideas that a trusted partner brings. Generosity can flow easily in both directions with the people close to them, rarely forced or measured out.
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, Jacqueline 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.
With Saturn in the second house, Jacqueline takes what they own and what they value seriously, and a person with this placement can be more anxious about having enough than the situation calls for. Security, for them, comes from building something slowly and seeing exactly what it rests on.
Uranus in Aries
11° Aries 19' ℞ · fifth house
freedom, generational
Uranus spends about seven years in each sign, so Jacqueline shares Uranus in Aries with many people of a similar age. It marks a generation that pushes for change through direct, individual action rather than waiting for permission. In one life it can appear as impatience with the slow-moving institutions older generations built.
Uranus in the fifth house gives creativity and romance a spark of the unexpected, and a predictable routine in either is apt to leave Jacqueline restless. The people and projects that appeal with this placement tend to be the ones that surprise, not the ones that confirm what is already known.
Neptune in Virgo
0° Virgo 08' · tenth house
imagination, generational
Neptune moves slowly, so Jacqueline shares its place in Virgo with people born years either side. The imagination of this generation turns towards service, craft and idealised routines of self-improvement. In one life it can mean chasing an impossibly perfect daily practice.
Neptune in the tenth house can make Jacqueline's public image harder to pin down than most, shifting as other people project hopes onto it. Creative or compassionate work is apt to suit this placement better than a rigid, conventional structure.
Pluto in Cancer
18° Cancer 22' · eighth house
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Jacqueline 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.
The eighth house is Pluto's natural home, and for Jacqueline questions of trust, power and what is truly shared between people can matter enormously. Pluto here wants to understand what most people are too afraid to look at directly, even about themselves.
Aspects in Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis’s chart
How the planets stand to each other, tightest first.
Moon trine Saturn
1.0° separating
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis is likely to manage difficult emotions with maturity and without much drama, because feeling and discipline support each other here. The steadiness of a Moon-Saturn trine is a strength, especially under pressure, and it is often the quality people trust most.
Jupiter sextile Uranus
1.8° applying
This sextile puts possibility and originality on easy terms, so Jacqueline can take up a fresh opportunity without much disruption. Think of it as innovation at low cost, the kind that improves something without first tearing it down.
Sun conjunction Mercury
2.8° applying
With the Sun conjunct Mercury, Jacqueline'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.
Venus opposition Saturn
2.9° applying
The pull in this aspect is between wanting closeness and a wariness that keeps testing whether it will last. For Jacqueline, letting someone prove themselves gradually, instead of doubting them from the outset, tends to build security sooner than suspicion does.
Mars sextile Pluto
3.6° applying
This sextile joins drive to depth, so resilience and follow-through are likely to be available to Jacqueline without constant conflict. Jacqueline 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.
Moon sextile Venus
3.8° separating
Warmth and emotional generosity are likely to come naturally to Jacqueline, because feeling and affection get along in this aspect. There is a gentle, likeable tenderness in it, the sort that makes people comfortable saying how they feel.
