Jean Marais’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Jean Marais was born on Thursday, 11 December 1913, in Cherbourg, France. The Sun was in Sagittarius, so Sagittarius was their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Taurus. Jean died on 8 November 1998, aged 84. No verified birth time is on file for Jean; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
By element the count is four water, two fire, two earth and two air. Cardinal signs hold four, fixed signs three and mutable signs three. Mars, Neptune and Pluto all fall in Cancer. The tightest aspect is Mercury trine Neptune, about 0.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mars, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto were retrograde. The Moon was waxing gibbous, between first quarter and full.
StarMap's dataset holds 14 other people born on 11 December, among them Naguib Mahfouz, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and Hailee Steinfeld.

Jean Marais’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Sagittarius
about 18° Sagittarius at midday
A Sagittarius Sun seeks. Meaning, distance and the bigger picture are likely to pull Jean Marais 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
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Taurus Moon feels through the body and its surroundings. On this reading, good food, familiar places and slow evenings are what restore Jean, and sudden change lands hard. Once they feel safe, they can be the steadiest person in the room.
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 Cherbourg, France, at each hour of the day.
Jean Marais’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Jean 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 11 December 1913, computed for Cherbourg, France.

Jean Marais’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Jean Marais’s private life.
Growth, travel and ideas bigger than daily life are where Jean Marais'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.
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 more than they let on. A good bed, a favourite mug or the same coffee order can turn an unsteady morning around.
With Mercury in Scorpio, Jean tends to think in layers, looking for what is not being said as much as what is spoken aloud. Once they have decided to speak they can be very direct, and until then, silent. The tension is suspecting a hidden motive where there is only an ordinary one.
Venus in Sagittarius loves with enthusiasm and a need for shared adventure, and Jean probably values a partner who gives them room to roam. When things get serious, this placement can confuse freedom with distance. The pattern with this Venus is to plan the next trip together before settling into the current one.
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 Jean, 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 Capricorn
20° Capricorn 33' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Capricorn grows through long-term discipline, and Jean would probably rather build slowly and properly than quickly. The overreach is taking on more responsibility than any one person should reasonably carry. The authority this Jupiter brings is slow and hard-won, the kind people tend to trust more the longer they know someone.
Saturn in Gemini builds discipline around clear expression, and it often begins with doubt about whether an idea is good enough to say out loud. For Jean that would mean overpreparing before speaking or writing anything. Once the self-consciousness eases, the result can be someone unusually precise and credible with words.
Uranus in Aquarius
5° Aquarius 00' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus is at home in Aquarius, and many people born in the years around Jean'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 Cancer
27° Cancer 48' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Cancer is shared by Jean and many people born in the same decade or so. The generation idealises home and family, often carrying a wider nostalgia for a version of belonging that may never quite have existed. Personally it can be a soft-focus longing for a childhood home.
Pluto in Cancer
0° Cancer 19' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Jean 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.
Aspects in Jean Marais’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 Neptune
about 0.2° at midday
Jean Marais probably has a natural gift for metaphor, storytelling and intuitive leaps, the work of thinking and imagination in easy partnership. With Mercury trine Neptune, communicating something hard to put into words comes easily, in a way that other people often find memorable.
Venus sextile Uranus
about 1.1° at midday
An independent streak and a warm heart get along in this sextile, which tends to give Jean's relationships room to breathe without cooling them. The freedom involved is easy and low on drama: enough to keep a relationship interesting, never so much that it feels unstable.
Mars opposition Jupiter
about 2.5° at midday
Mars opposite Jupiter pits Jean's own direct action against other people's grander plans or expectations, which can end in overcommitting to someone else's vision. Jean's own sense of scale is usually a better guide than anyone else's.
Sun opposition Saturn
about 4.5° at midday
With the Sun opposite Saturn, Jean is likely to find that asserting who they are brings them up against the caution, rules or authority figures that seem to stand in the way. Working through that tension builds a confidence that does not need everyone's approval to hold steady.
Mars conjunction Neptune
about 4.7° at midday
Drive is idealistic and imaginative where Mars meets Neptune, and Jean is likely to act most powerfully in the service of something they believe in. The energy is inspired. What it wants is a big vision grounded in a plan specific enough to carry out.
Mercury trine Mars
about 4.9° at midday
Jean'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 Jean persuasive when the moment calls for it.
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?
