Jean-Luc Godard’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
3 December 1930 was a Wednesday: the day Jean-Luc Godard was born in 7th arrondissement of Paris, France. That made Jean-Luc a Sagittarius, with the Moon in Taurus and Libra rising. Jean-Luc died on 13 September 2022, aged 91. The birth time, 02:00, comes from Astro-Databank with a Rodden rating of AA, which means it was taken from a birth certificate or birth record.
Of the ten planets, four are in fire signs, three in earth and three in water; none is in air. Cardinal signs hold four, fixed signs three and mutable signs three. Closest of the aspects is the conjunction between Jupiter and Pluto, 1.1° from exact. Four planets were retrograde: Venus, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto. The Moon was waxing gibbous, between first quarter and full.

Jean-Luc Godard’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Sagittarius
10° Sagittarius 11'
A Sagittarius Sun seeks. Meaning, distance and the bigger picture are likely to pull Jean-Luc Godard forward, and the honesty of this placement is a kind of generosity. Its lesson is that the journey also needs somewhere to land.
Moon sign
Taurus
3° Taurus 57'
A Taurus Moon feels through the body and its surroundings. On this reading, good food, familiar places and slow evenings are what restore Jean-Luc, and sudden change lands hard. Once they feel safe, they can be the steadiest person in the room.
Rising sign
Libra
9° Libra 49'
With Libra rising, the first impression Jean-Luc gives is graceful, fair and easy to like. People tend to feel considered in Jean-Luc's company, and a Libra rising is often the one asked to settle a disagreement.

Jean-Luc Godard’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign and house: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Jean-Luc Godard’s private life.
Growth, travel and ideas bigger than daily life are where Jean-Luc Godard's Sagittarius Sun finds purpose, and their energy tends to lift the moment there is somewhere new to go. Familiarity is what wears on this placement. A few months into any routine, however good it is, restlessness usually sets in.
What energises Jean-Luc is talking, writing and swapping ideas with whoever happens to be around that day. With the Sun in the third house, curiosity is not a side interest but close to the core of who they are, and a good conversation can change their whole mood.
A Taurus Moon needs routine, familiar food and physical comfort to feel steady from day to day. A sudden change of schedule probably unsettles Jean-Luc more than they let on. A good bed, a favourite mug or the same coffee order can turn an unsteady morning around.
With the Moon in the seventh house, Jean-Luc is likely to feel most themselves inside a close partnership, reading the emotional temperature of a relationship constantly and by instinct. Too long alone can leave them unmoored, even when nothing is wrong.
Jean-Luc's Mercury in Sagittarius thinks in big, connective leaps and communicates with enthusiasm and a wide frame of reference drawn from everywhere they have been. The weak point is generalising past what the details support. A specific question may get a sweeping theory nobody quite asked for.
The third house is Mercury's natural home, and words, ideas and quick exchanges come more easily to Jean-Luc than to most people. Someone with this placement is often the fastest talker or the sharpest writer in the room.
Venus in Scorpio loves intensely and privately, and Jean-Luc is likely to value depth and total honesty over ease. Testing loyalty can create the very distance this placement fears most. There is an all-or-nothing quality to how this Venus commits, with little interest in anything in between.
With Venus in the second house, Jean-Luc has an eye for quality and comfort, and being surrounded by beautiful things probably matters more to them than an outsider would guess. Jean-Luc's taste leans towards pleasure, ease and things made well, over things that are merely practical.
Mars in Leo acts with confidence and wants the effort to be visible, and for Jean-Luc its anger is likely to flare when pride or loyalty is challenged. The tension is turning a disagreement into a matter of ego. Criticism of the work can feel personal to a Leo Mars, even when it was not meant that way.
Mars in the tenth house makes ambition the driving force, and Jean-Luc 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 Jean-Luc's best effort.
Jupiter in Cancer
19° Cancer 29' ℞ · tenth house
growth and excess
For Jean-Luc, 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.
Jupiter in the tenth house is associated with generosity and fairness at work, and in Jean-Luc's chart it points to patience about letting a reputation build over time. The placement is also linked with optimism about working life and a readiness to take on more.
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 Jean-Luc, 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.
In Jean-Luc's chart, Saturn sits in the third house, a placement associated with caution in speech: a sense of being unheard or over-careful with words, and a freedom to speak up that comes with deliberate practice. What they say often carries weight, because they choose their words with care.
Uranus in Aries
11° Aries 35' ℞ · seventh house
freedom, generational
Uranus spends about seven years in each sign, so Jean-Luc 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 seventh house asks for relationships with more freedom and less convention than the average partnership, and Jean-Luc may look for people who respect that independence. A sudden shift in a relationship may rattle Jean-Luc less than most.
Neptune in Virgo
5° Virgo 46' · eleventh house
imagination, generational
Neptune moves slowly, so Jean-Luc 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.
Friendships and causes with an idealistic edge draw Jean-Luc, who may hold a vision for their community that reaches well beyond the practical. With Neptune in the eleventh house, disappointment can follow when a group falls short of that vision, even when its effort was sincere.
Pluto in Cancer
20° Cancer 33' ℞ · tenth house
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Jean-Luc 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.
Influence may matter more to Jean-Luc than surface status, and with Pluto in the tenth house, a working life that stops meaning something may well be reinvented. Pluto here is associated with caring more about public power than public popularity, two things that are easy to confuse.
Aspects in Jean-Luc Godard’s chart
How the planets stand to each other, tightest first.
Jupiter conjunction Pluto
1.1° separating
Jupiter conjunct Pluto describes growth that is intense and transformative, and Jean-Luc Godard is likely to pursue opportunities that change their circumstances outright instead of merely improving them. Ambition comes with it, and the skill is pacing that intensity so that it builds and does not flare and fade.
Saturn square Uranus
1.2° applying
The need for stability and the need for freedom can clash in Jean-Luc's chart, producing either rigid routines that eventually snap or sudden breaks from commitments that were meant sincerely. Saturn square Uranus is best answered with structure loose enough to bend before it has to break.
Sun trine Uranus
1.4° applying
Being original feels easy rather than effortful with this aspect, because Jean-Luc's sense of self and need for freedom sit comfortably together. They are likely to gravitate towards places that let them be exactly who they are without much friction.
Moon trine Neptune
1.8° applying
There is an easy current between Jean-Luc's feelings and imagination, and it makes for a gentle, intuitive emotional life. Compassion tends to come naturally with the Moon trine Neptune, in a way that makes other people feel understood almost immediately.
Venus trine Pluto
3.6° applying
With Venus trine Pluto, affection and the capacity for change tend to strengthen each other in Jean-Luc'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.
Mars trine Uranus
3.8° separating
Jean-Luc's drive and originality tend to run together easily, which allows fast, inventive action when a situation calls for something different. Mars trine Uranus can make a bold move look natural, and it is carried off more often than the risk would seem to justify.
