Jaden Smith’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Jaden Smith was born on Wednesday, 8 July 1998, in Malibu, California. That makes Jaden a Cancer. The Moon changed sign at about 01:30, from Sagittarius to Capricorn; which of the two is the Moon sign depends on the hour of birth. Jaden turns 28 in 2026. StarMap has not verified a birth time yet, so the chart is cast for midday on that date and has no houses.
Of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, three are in air signs, three in water, two in fire and one in earth. By modality the count is four fixed, three mutable and two cardinal. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mercury and Uranus: an opposition, about 0.2° 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 waxing gibbous to full.
StarMap's dataset holds 15 other people born on 8 July, among them Son Heung-min, Nelson Rockefeller and Virgil van Dijk. Maya Hawke was born on the very same day.

Jaden Smith’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Cancer
about 16° Cancer at midday
A Cancer Sun protects. For Jaden Smith, home, memory and the people they have decided are theirs tend to sit at the centre of things, and they probably read a room before anyone speaks. Care is the strength of this Sun, and their task is to include themselves in it.
Moon sign
Sagittarius or Capricorn
Sagittarius until about 01:30, then Capricorn (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 01:30: Moon in Sagittarius
A Sagittarius Moon feels best in motion. Open roads, new ideas and honest laughter probably lift Jaden, 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.
Born after about 01:30: Moon in Capricorn
A Capricorn Moon feels responsibly. With it, Jaden may hold themselves together for other people, and can be hard on themselves when they cannot. This Moon tends to be restored by accomplishment, by structure, and by the rare person allowed to see them tired.
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 Malibu, California, at each hour of the day.
Jaden Smith’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Jaden 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 8 July 1998, computed for Malibu, California.

Jaden Smith’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Jaden Smith’s private life.
With the Sun in Cancer, Jaden Smith is likely to feel most alive when caring for people and places that matter to them, and purpose is tied to belonging somewhere. Feeling unneeded is the sore spot for this placement, and it can be taken personally. The whole day may go better after checking in on someone they love.

Sagittarius until about 01:30, then Capricorn
needs and habits
Born before about 01:30: 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 Jaden edgy faster than most people expect. With this Moon, the next trip tends to be planned before the current one has finished.
Born after about 01:30: Moon in Capricorn
With the Moon in Capricorn, Jaden's comfort probably comes from accomplishing something concrete each day, and an unproductive day can leave them oddly unsettled even on holiday. Harder feelings tend to be kept for when they are alone. Before rest is allowed there is usually one more thing to tidy, organise or finish.
Mercury in Leo gives Jaden 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 Jaden more persuasive than accurate. A simple update, in their hands, can become something closer to a performance.
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. Jaden 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.
Mars in Cancer acts to protect the people and things that matter, and its anger is usually about feeling hurt more than feeling wronged. The habit to watch, for Jaden, may be going quiet or indirect instead of naming the upset. Other people tend to notice a shift of mood and take a while to trace it back to its cause.
Jupiter in Pisces
27° Pisces 55' at midday
growth and excess
For Jaden, Jupiter in Pisces means finding growth in compassion, imagination and a willingness to trust things that cannot be fully explained. The overreach is an idealism about people or situations that the facts do not quite support. Others lean on this generosity of spirit more than they let on.
Saturn in Taurus gathers its discipline around security and the things a person relies on, and Jaden is likely to take very little for granted. The doubt is a fear that stability could disappear, even when it clearly has not. This placement likes to know what things cost before committing, and tends to stay careful even in steady times.
Uranus in Aquarius
11° Aquarius 44' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus is at home in Aquarius, and many people born in the years around Jaden's birth have it too. The generation is defined by rapid technological and social change within a single lifetime. One person's share of it is an unusually easy relationship with disruption and reinvention.
Neptune in Aquarius
1° Aquarius 10' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Before it belongs to Jaden, Neptune in Aquarius belongs to a generation. Together that generation dreams about technology, community and shared futures. In one life it can become an idealism about groups and causes that real people sometimes fail to live up to.
Pluto in Sagittarius
5° Sagittarius 40' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Sagittarius is an era's placement, shared by Jaden with many people of a similar age. This generation transforms belief, religion and ideas of truth on a large scale. In one life it can be intensity around whatever worldview a person has chosen to hold.
Aspects in Jaden Smith’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.
Mercury opposition Uranus
about 0.2° at midday
With Mercury opposite Uranus, Jaden Smith'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 Saturn
about 0.8° at midday
Sustained effort feels manageable, not draining, when Mars and Saturn are in sextile, and Jaden 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.
Saturn square Neptune
about 1.2° at midday
Practical sense and idealism can pull against each other in this square, and for Jaden that may mean either an uninspired routine or a dream with no realistic plan behind it. The way through is to build the structure and protect the dream at the same time, without sacrificing one for the other.
Jupiter sextile Neptune
about 3.3° at midday
Inspired ideas are within Jaden's reach without any loss of footing, since possibility and imagination are gently linked by this sextile. The optimism is soft and workable, useful for keeping a project hopeful without letting it drift far from what is real.
Mars square Jupiter
about 3.7° at midday
Drive can outrun capacity under Mars square Jupiter, and Jaden may overextend on a project or on a promise made in a burst of confidence. The enthusiasm is sound. It needs matching to a pace that can be sustained.
Venus trine Uranus
about 5.3° at midday
Closeness does not have to feel confining for Jaden, because under this trine affection and independence sit easily together. Excitement and stability manage to coexist, more comfortably than the usual choice between the two would suggest.
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.

- Mercury trine Plutoabout 5.8°

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?
