John Paul Jones’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
John Paul Jones was born in Sidcup, England, on 3 January 1946, a Thursday. Their zodiac sign is Capricorn, with the Moon in Capricorn. John turns 80 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 three earth, three air, two fire and two water. Cardinal signs hold seven, mutable signs two and fixed signs one. Capricorn holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Sun, Moon and Venus. Closest of the aspects is the square between Mars and Jupiter, about 2.3° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Four planets were retrograde: Mars, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto. The Moon was new.
StarMap's dataset holds 12 other people born on 3 January, among them Mel Gibson, Sergio Leone and Jisoo.

John Paul Jones’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Capricorn
about 12° Capricorn at midday
A Capricorn Sun endures. Ambition, patience and a dry sense of humour are what tend to carry John Paul Jones up long slopes other people give up on. The placement learns, eventually, that rest is part of the climb.
Moon sign
Capricorn
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Capricorn Moon feels responsibly. With it, John may hold themselves together for other people, and can be hard on themselves when they cannot. This Moon tends to be restored by accomplishment, by structure, and by the rare person allowed to see them tired.
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 Sidcup, England, at each hour of the day.
John Paul Jones’s rising sign, by birth time

Until then, this is the rising sign for every possible time of birth on 3 January 1946, computed for Sidcup, England.

John Paul Jones’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about John Paul Jones’s private life.
With the Sun in Capricorn, John Paul Jones is likely to find purpose in building a reputation and a structure that will outlast them, with a vitality that is steady rather than showy. The trap can be measuring their worth by output alone. They may well work through tiredness instead of naming it, until someone else has to point it out.
With the Moon in Capricorn, John's comfort probably comes from accomplishing something concrete each day, and an unproductive day can leave them oddly unsettled even on holiday. Harder feelings tend to be kept for when they are alone. Before rest is allowed there is usually one more thing to tidy, organise or finish.
John'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.
For John, Venus in Capricorn means loving in a measured, committed way and valuing stability, ambition and someone to build a life with. The trap is treating a relationship like a project to manage rather than let unfold. With this Venus, love comes out more easily as providing and planning than as words said out loud.
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 John, 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 Libra
25° Libra 05' at midday
growth and excess
In John's chart, Jupiter in Libra suggests growth through partnership and a gift for bringing people together. Excess here looks like pleasing people so broadly that every expectation becomes a commitment. Someone with this Jupiter is often the connector whose introductions and events other people benefit from more than they realise.
Emotional security is where John's Saturn in Cancer builds discipline; it is a placement often associated with learning early to be the steady one. Asking for care tends to be difficult with this Saturn, even when care is clearly needed. Over time, people with this placement often become the dependable anchor for others, including some who never quite return the favour.
Uranus in Gemini
14° Gemini 21' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Gemini is shared by John and many people born in the same few years. These are people who come of age alongside a revolution in communication, fluent in tools older generations learned later in life. The personal version is a restless need for new information.
Neptune in Libra
8° Libra 36' at midday
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, John 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
11° Leo 14' 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 John, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in John Paul Jones’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.
Mars square Jupiter
about 2.3° at midday
Drive can outrun capacity under Mars square Jupiter, and John Paul Jones may overextend on a project or on a promise made in a burst of confidence. The enthusiasm is sound. It needs matching to a pace that can be sustained.
Jupiter square Saturn
about 2.9° at midday
Enthusiasm for growth can run into limits here, whether practical or self-imposed, and to John it may feel as though ambition keeps outrunning the time and energy available. Jupiter square Saturn works best when the limit is treated as a pace-setter and not as a wall.
Venus square Neptune
about 3.0° at midday
Under Venus square Neptune, affection can blur into an idealised picture of love, and disappointment follows when a real person or relationship falls short of the dream. John's task is to love what is there, which tends to prove more durable than loving the fantasy.
Mercury sextile Jupiter
about 3.4° at midday
John's thinking and optimism keep easy company, which gives their conversation a natural, engaging breadth. Curiosity does much of the work with this aspect, opening doors in conversation that a narrower focus would have missed.
Sun square Neptune
about 3.9° at midday
A Sun-Neptune square can blur John's sense of who they are under the pull of an ideal, a cause or someone else's story, until it is unclear where they end and the dream begins. The task is staying inspired without losing their own outline.
Mars conjunction Saturn
about 5.2° at midday
With Mars conjunct Saturn, drive is disciplined and controlled, and John is likely to channel energy into long, patient effort in place of short bursts. It makes them capable of sustained work. The risk is that caution talks them out of acting 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?
