Jelena Karleuša’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
17 August 1978 was a Thursday: the day Jelena Karleuša was born in Belgrade, Serbia. Their zodiac sign is Leo, with the Moon in Aquarius. Jelena turns 48 in 2026. StarMap has not verified a birth time yet, so the chart is cast for midday on that date and has no houses.
By element the count is four air, three fire, two water and one earth. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is four, four and two. Three planets stand together in Libra: Venus, Mars and Pluto. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Neptune and Pluto: a sextile, 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. Over the course of the day the Moon went from waxing gibbous to full.
StarMap's dataset holds 24 other people born on 17 August, among them Robert De Niro, Thierry Henry and Sean Penn.

Jelena Karleuša’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 24° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Jelena Karleuša 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
Aquarius
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
An Aquarius Moon feels from a step back. Jelena is likely to understand an emotion better than they inhabit it, and to need space and ideas to process. For this Moon, friends are family and freedom is security.
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 Belgrade, Serbia, at each hour of the day.
Jelena Karleuša’s rising sign, by birth time

Until then, this is the rising sign for every possible time of birth on 17 August 1978, computed for Belgrade, Serbia.

Jelena Karleuša’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Jelena Karleuša’s private life.
Purpose for Jelena Karleuša 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.
An Aquarius Moon processes daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and Jelena is likely to need a degree of independence built into any close relationship. The temptation is to analyse a feeling instead of simply having it. Even after a good day with people, this Moon needs time alone to recover.
Mercury in Leo gives Jelena 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 Jelena more persuasive than accurate. A simple update, in their hands, can become something closer to a performance.
Venus in Libra loves with an instinct for balance and partnership, and Jelena probably values harmony, fairness and someone who makes an effort to look good together. The risk with this Venus is staying in a relationship for the sake of the pairing itself. Jelena may give up a personal preference before anyone has even asked.
In Jelena's chart, Mars in Libra acts diplomatically and prefers negotiation to confrontation, and its anger tends to stay buried until it is too big to ignore. Avoided consistently, conflict leaves resentment building underneath the calm surface. The pattern is saying yes to something that rankled, then feeling it later.
Jupiter in Cancer
26° Cancer 11' at midday
growth and excess
For Jelena, 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.
Competence is what Saturn in Virgo builds discipline around, often driven by a fear of not yet having done enough to deserve rest. Jelena 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 Scorpio
12° Scorpio 37' at midday
freedom, generational
Much of Jelena's age group has Uranus in Scorpio. It changes attitudes to power, secrecy and what is held in common, often while living through upheavals in institutions once considered permanent. In an individual it tends to be a low tolerance for hidden agendas.
Neptune in Sagittarius
15° Sagittarius 34' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Jelena in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
14° Libra 41' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Jelena belongs to, because Pluto moves so slowly. That generation transforms ideas of partnership, fairness and what people owe one another. Personally it can be an intense need for relationships to be fundamentally fair.
Aspects in Jelena Karleuša’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.
Venus conjunction Mars
about 1.6° at midday
With Venus conjunct Mars, affection and drive are closely linked, so, for Jelena Karleuša, wanting something and going after it are likely to feel like one impulse. The aspect brings plenty of romantic and creative energy; its test is letting the wanting outlast the first chase.
Sun conjunction Mercury
about 2.5° at midday
With the Sun conjunct Mercury, Jelena'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 conjunction Pluto
about 4.9° at midday
Love tends to run deep and complete under Venus conjunct Pluto, and Jelena is likely to lean towards intensity over casual affection. Relationships gain depth from it. What takes practice is trusting a connection without needing to test it to prove it is real.
Mercury conjunction Saturn
about 6.0° at midday
With Mercury conjunct Saturn, Jelena's thinking is likely to be careful and structured, and they tend to say only what they are sure of. That makes their word worth taking, and the risk is that caution keeps an idea back until it feels perfectly finished.
Mars conjunction Pluto
about 6.5° at midday
With Mars conjunct Pluto, drive tends to be intense and relentless, and once Jelena is committed to something they are likely to see it through whatever the cost. There is staying power to spare, so the art is in choosing battles, and keeping that intensity away from the ones that do not deserve it.
Sun conjunction Saturn
about 8.5° at midday
With the Sun conjunct Saturn, identity is built through discipline and steady effort, often with an early sense that a place has to be worked for rather than assumed. It tends to make Jelena reliable and serious, and the growth comes from believing that they have done enough to rest.
One more aspect, listed without a reading. It is between two of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, whose aspects hold for years at a time, so everyone born while it 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?
