Janez Drnovšek’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Janez Drnovšek was born on Wednesday, 17 May 1950, in Celje, Slovenia. The Sun was in Taurus, so Taurus was their zodiac sign. The Moon was in Taurus until about 10:50 and in Gemini afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Janez died on 23 February 2008, aged 57. No verified birth time is on file for Janez; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
By element the count is four earth, two fire, two water and one air, leaving out the Moon, whose sign depends on the birth time. By modality the count is three cardinal, three fixed and three mutable. The tightest aspect is Neptune sextile Pluto, about 0.9° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Two planets were retrograde: Mercury and Neptune. The Moon was new.
StarMap's dataset holds 11 other people born on 17 May, among them Enya, Jean Gabin and Dennis Hopper.

Janez Drnovšek’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Taurus
about 25° Taurus at midday
A Taurus Sun builds. Comfort, steadiness and things that last probably matter more to Janez Drnovšek than novelty, and people tend to trust someone who does not change their mind for show. The growth edge is letting go before something stops working.
Moon sign
Taurus or Gemini
Taurus until about 10:50, then Gemini (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 10:50: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon feels through the body and its surroundings. On this reading, good food, familiar places and slow evenings are what restore Janez, and sudden change lands hard. Once they feel safe, they can be the steadiest person in the room.
Born after about 10:50: Moon in Gemini
The Moon in Gemini processes feeling by naming it. For Janez, talking, writing and switching perspective are likely ways to settle, and silence can make small worries loud. They probably need people who let them think out loud.
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 Celje, Slovenia, at each hour of the day.
Janez Drnovšek’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Janez 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 May 1950, computed for Celje, Slovenia.

Janez Drnovšek’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Janez Drnovšek’s private life.
A Taurus Sun finds purpose in building something that lasts, and Janez Drnovšek's vitality probably runs slow and steady rather than in bursts. The drawback is a reluctance to change course even when the plan is clearly not working. People with this Sun can stay in one job or one home long after part of them knows it is time to move.

Taurus until about 10:50, then Gemini
needs and habits
Born before about 10:50: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon needs routine, familiar food and physical comfort to feel steady from day to day. A sudden change of schedule probably unsettles Janez more than they let on. A good bed, a favourite mug or the same coffee order can turn an unsteady morning around.
Born after about 10:50: Moon in Gemini
The Moon in Gemini runs its daily habits on conversation and mental stimulation, and Janez is likely to settle by talking a worry through rather than sitting with it quietly. A day with no one to talk to can leave them restless. The habit is to message a friend the moment something comes to mind, before deciding what to think about it.
With Mercury in Taurus, Janez 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 Aries loves with immediacy and pursues what it wants without much hesitation, and it values a partner who can keep up. For Janez that suggests an interest that can fade once the chase is over. The pattern is to fall fast and to need a relationship to keep feeling like a choice, not a routine.
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, Janez is more likely to criticise than to confront. A clipped tone often signals frustration well before anything is said directly.
Jupiter in Pisces
4° Pisces 55' at midday
growth and excess
For Janez, 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.
Competence is what Saturn in Virgo builds discipline around, often driven by a fear of not yet having done enough to deserve rest. Janez may feel like a fraud even when the track record says otherwise. The usual result is someone quietly excellent at something long before they will admit it out loud.
Uranus in Cancer
2° Cancer 51' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Cancer belongs to an age group rather than to Janez alone. Its mark is a generation that redefines home and family, departing from the structures the previous generation grew up inside. At the personal level it is read as a pull to build family life differently.
Neptune in Libra
14° Libra 58' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Janez among them. It idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by images of love on screen that outpace real relationships. The personal echo is a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.
Pluto in Leo
15° Leo 51' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Leo is held by a whole generation, one that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. At a personal scale, for Janez, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Janez Drnovšek’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 trine Mars
about 1.3° at midday
Janez Drnovšek's thinking and drive support each other, and it shows in decisions communicated with clarity and confidence. Debate and quick thinking come easily with Mercury trine Mars, which makes Janez persuasive when the moment calls for it.
Jupiter trine Uranus
about 2.1° at midday
Jupiter trine Uranus gives Janez a knack for spotting unconventional opportunities before other people do, which is what a sense of possibility and originality produce together. Growth arrives through new directions, ones a more cautious approach would probably have missed.
Venus opposition Neptune
about 2.1° at midday
This opposition sets grounded affection against a tendency to idealise someone beyond anything that person has shown. For Janez, checking a relationship against plain facts protects the very tenderness that makes the pull so appealing.
Sun trine Mars
about 2.8° at midday
Confidence and drive move in the same direction for Janez, so they are likely to act on their goals with very little inner resistance. The energy of a Sun-Mars trine is uncomplicated, and other people notice it and often want to be near it.
Venus trine Pluto
about 3.0° at midday
With Venus trine Pluto, affection and the capacity for change tend to strengthen each other in Janez's chart, the kind of pairing that gives relationships staying power through hard times. Depth can arrive here without constant upheaval, and that is rarer, and more durable, than the intensity some people mistake for closeness.
Sun conjunction Mercury
about 4.2° at midday
With the Sun conjunct Mercury, Janez'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.
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 square Plutoabout 5.9°
