Jimi Hendrix’s birth chart

Jimi Hendrix's full reading

Each planet by sign and house. First-draft readings in the StarMap voice, reviewed by our consulting astrologer before launch.

1. ☉Sun in Sagittarius

   ♐ 4° Sagittarius 50' · eleventh house

   purpose and vitality

   Purpose for they i tied to growth, travel and ideas bigger than their daily life, and their energy lifts the moment there is somewhere new to go. The tension is losing interest once a thing becomes familiar. It shows up as the restlessness that sets in a few months into any routine, however good it is.

   They find themselves through their friendships and the causes they throw their weight behind, more than through solitary achievement. Belonging to a group with a shared purpose brings out their best qualities, and being cut off from that kind of community can dim their spark.

2. ☽Moon in Cancer

   ♋ 28° Cancer 04' · seventh house

   needs and habits

   Their needs are tied to home, routine and the people they check in on daily. Jimi is steadied by small rituals like a particular meal or a particular chair. The tension is reading other people's moods so closely that they absorb them as their own without noticing.

   They feel most themselves inside a close partnership, and they tend to read the emotional temperature of any relationship Jimi is in almost constantly and instinctively. Being alone for too long can leave they feeling unmoored, even when nothing is actually wrong.

3. ☿Mercury in Sagittarius

   ♐ 2° Sagittarius 56' · eleventh house

   mind and voice

   They think in big, connective leaps and communicate with enthusiasm and a wide frame of reference drawn from everywhere they have been. The tension is generalising past what the details actually support. It shows up as answering a specific question with a sweeping theory nobody quite asked for.

   They think in terms of the whole group, generating ideas for causes and communities they genuinely care about rather than only for themselves. Brainstorming with friends, informally and without pressure, is often where some of their very best thinking actually happens.

4. ♀Venus in Sagittarius

   ♐ 7° Sagittarius 35' · twelfth house

   love and values

   They love with enthusiasm and a need for shared adventure, and they value a partner who gives they room to roam. The tension is confusing freedom with distance when things get serious. It shows up as planning their next trip together before they have settled into the one Jimi is on.

   Their affections run private and sometimes idealized, and they may love more deeply than they actually show on the surface to most people. Quiet acts of devotion, done without an audience, mean more to they than public displays or grand romantic gestures ever could.

5. ♂Mars in Scorpio

   ♏ 17° Scorpio 31' · tenth house

   drive and anger

   They act with focus and intensity, and their anger, when it surfaces, is controlled, cutting and hard to forget. The tension is holding onto a grievance well past its useful life. It shows up as a calm exterior that gives little warning before a genuinely sharp response.

   Ambition drives they here, and Jimi is willing to push hard toward a public goal once they have properly set their sights on it. Competition at work tends to sharpen their focus rather than intimidate they, and a real challenge often brings out their best effort.

6. ♃Jupiter in Cancer

   ♋ 24° Cancer 51' ℞ · seventh house

   growth and excess

   They grow through nurturing others and building a home that people want to return to. The overreach is overprotecting the people they love past the point they need it. It shows up as generosity that shows up as home-cooked meals, open doors and an instinct to take in anyone who needs somewhere to land.

   Their relationships tend to broaden their world considerably, often bringing they into contact with new people, places or ideas through a partner they trust. Generosity flows easily between they and the people close to they, rarely feeling forced or carefully measured out.

7. ♄Saturn in Gemini

   ♊ 9° Gemini 22' ℞ · sixth house

   discipline and doubt

   They build discipline around expressing themselves clearly, often after early doubt about whether their ideas were good enough to say out loud. The doubt shows up as overpreparing before they will speak or write anything. It shows up as becoming, later in life, unusually precise and credible with words, once the early self-consciousness eases.

   They take their daily responsibilities seriously, sometimes to the point of being noticeably harder on themselves than the job itself actually requires. Discipline in their routine, kept up steadily over years, tends to pay off in ways that surprise even they eventually.

8. ♅Uranus in Gemini

   ♊ 2° Gemini 28' ℞ · fifth house

   freedom, generational

   Shared by an entire generational span, this placement marks people who come of age alongside a communication revolution, fluent in tools older generations learned later in life. Personally, it can show up as a restless need for new information.

   Their creativity and romantic life carry a spark of the unexpected, and predictable routines in either one can leave they feeling restless fairly quickly. Jimi is drawn to people and projects that genuinely surprise they, rather than ones that simply confirm what they already knew.

9. ♆Neptune in Libra

   ♎ 1° Libra 40' · ninth house

   imagination, generational

   Shared by everyone born in this span, this placement marks a generation that idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by media images of love that outpace real relationships. Personally, it can show up as a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.

   Jimi is drawn to spiritual or mystical ideas about the world, and travel can feel like a search for something beyond the merely practical reason for the trip. Faith, in whatever form it eventually takes for they, tends to run genuinely deep and quietly steady.

10. ♇Pluto in Leo

    ♌ 7° Leo 10' ℞ · eighth house

    power, generational

    Shared by everyone born in this span of years, this placement marks a generation that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. Personally, it can show up as a charged relationship with authority and who gets to hold the spotlight.

    This is Pluto's natural home, and questions of trust, power and what is truly shared between people matter enormously to they, more than to most. Jimi is drawn to understanding what most people are frankly too afraid to look at directly, even about themselves.

Aspects

How the planets in Jimi Hendrix's chart talk to each other, tightest first.

1. Venus trine Pluto

   0.4° separating

   Their affections and their capacity for transformation support each other, giving their relationships real staying power through hard times. Depth comes to they without needing constant upheaval to get there, which is rarer, and more durable, than the intensity some people mistake for real closeness.

2. Mercury opposition Uranus

   0.5° separating

   They feel a pull between their own unconventional ideas and 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.

3. Uranus trine Neptune

   0.8° applying

   Shared by everyone born in this span, this placement marks a generation for whom innovation and imagination move easily together. Personally, it can show up as ideas that combine new technology with real inspiration.

4. Mercury sextile Neptune

   1.3° separating

   Their thinking and their imagination cooperate gently, giving they easy access to creative and intuitive ideas. This is soft, pleasant inventiveness rather than hard analysis, useful for softening a difficult conversation without losing the point of it.
