José Ferrer’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief

José Ferrer was born in Santurce, Puerto Rico, on 8 January 1912, a Monday. That made José a Capricorn, with the Moon in Virgo. José died on 26 January 1992, aged 80. No verified birth time is on file for José; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.

Earth carries the most weight: five of the ten planets, against fire three, air one and water one. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is three, two and five. Sagittarius holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Mercury, Venus and Jupiter. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Venus and Jupiter: a conjunction, about 1.5° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Three planets were retrograde: Saturn, Neptune and Pluto. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.

StarMap's dataset holds 15 other people born on 8 January, among them Elvis Presley, David Bowie and R. Kelly. Wikidata links José with one person in the dataset: Rosemary Clooney (married in 1953 and 1964).

José Ferrer’s Sun, Moon and rising sign

Sun sign

Capricorn

about 17° Capricorn at midday

A Capricorn Sun endures. Ambition, patience and a dry sense of humour are what tend to carry José Ferrer up long slopes other people give up on. The placement learns, eventually, that rest is part of the climb.

All Capricorn Suns

Moon sign

Virgo

in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time

A Virgo Moon feels by fixing. When something is wrong, José is likely to look for the practical cause and to calm down by tidying, planning or being useful. The lesson of this Moon is to accept help without a to-do list attached.

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 Santurce, Puerto Rico, at each hour of the day.

José Ferrer’s rising sign, by birth time

StarMap has not verified a birth time for José 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 8 January 1912, computed for Santurce, Puerto Rico.

José Ferrer’s planets, sign by sign

Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about José Ferrer’s private life.

  1. Sun in Capricorn

    17° Capricorn 01' at midday

    purpose and vitality

    With the Sun in Capricorn, José Ferrer 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.

  2. Moon in Virgo

    Virgo, all day

    needs and habits

    The Moon in Virgo runs towards order, and a messy space or an unfinished list can unsettle José's mood more than most people would guess. Small, useful tasks are calming. The trouble can start when José's own needs become another chore to get right instead of something to enjoy.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius

    25° Sagittarius 02' at midday

    mind and voice

    José'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.

  4. Venus in Sagittarius

    4° Sagittarius 34' at midday

    love and values

    Venus in Sagittarius loves with enthusiasm and a need for shared adventure, and José 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.

  5. Mars in Taurus

    24° Taurus 55' at midday

    drive and anger

    Mars in Taurus acts deliberately and sticks with a course once chosen, and its anger builds slowly but takes a long time to cool once it arrives. At times José may dig in out of stubbornness rather than conviction. It takes real provocation to make this Mars snap, and the rattled feeling tends to last a while afterwards.

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius

    6° Sagittarius 03' at midday

    growth and excess

    With Jupiter in Sagittarius, José is likely to grow through travel, study and direct experience of things bigger than ordinary life. The excess may be promising more than circumstances can deliver, out of optimism rather than dishonesty. This Jupiter carries a conviction that things will work out, and other people borrow it when theirs runs low.

  7. Saturn in Taurus

    13° Taurus 21' at midday ℞

    discipline and doubt

    Saturn in Taurus gathers its discipline around security and the things a person relies on, and José is likely to take very little for granted. The doubt is a fear that stability could disappear, even when it clearly has not. This placement likes to know what things cost before committing, and tends to stay careful even in steady times.

  8. Uranus in Capricorn

    28° Capricorn 41' at midday

    freedom, generational

    Many people within a few years of José's age share Uranus in Capricorn, the mark of a generation that dismantles and rebuilds old institutions and structures of authority. Personally, that can mean scepticism towards any system that asks for trust without having shown why it deserves it.

  9. Neptune in Cancer

    22° Cancer 33' at midday ℞

    imagination, generational

    Neptune in Cancer is shared by José 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.

  10. Pluto in Gemini

    27° Gemini 36' at midday ℞

    power, generational

    José shares Pluto in Gemini with many people born in the same long stretch of years. That generation transforms communication and collective thought, often through upheavals in how information is controlled and shared. The personal portion is an intense relationship with what counts as truth.

Aspects in José Ferrer’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.

  1. Venus conjunction Jupiter

    about 1.5° at midday

    Venus conjunct Jupiter tends to make José Ferrer's capacity for love and pleasure generous and expansive, and it usually comes with a warm enjoyment of life. The result is naturally good company; the thing to watch is the point where generosity has quietly become excess.

  2. Mars sextile Neptune

    about 2.4° at midday

    In José's chart, drive and imagination help each other along gently, so inspired action is possible before everything has been mapped out. The motivation is soft but workable, and it keeps a creative or compassionate project moving without forcing it.

  3. Mercury opposition Pluto

    about 2.6° at midday

    With Mercury opposite Pluto, other people's attempts to control the story can collide with José's own conclusions and turn a disagreement into a deeper power struggle. Staying with the argument itself, rather than the fight for control, resolves more.

  4. Sun trine Saturn

    about 3.7° at midday

    Effort and identity feel like the same project under a Sun-Saturn trine, because José's sense of self and capacity for discipline reinforce each other. What they build tends to last, since ambition and patience are already in agreement.

  5. Mars trine Uranus

    about 3.8° at midday

    José'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.

  6. Sun opposition Neptune

    about 5.5° at midday

    For José, a clear, grounded sense of self sits on one side, and on the other a habit of idealising people or situations past what they can deliver. With this aspect, holding compassion and clear sight together resolves more than choosing one over the other.

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.
