Joseph Cotten’s birth chart

Joseph Cotten's full reading

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

1. ☉Sun in Taurus

   ♉ 24° Taurus 09'

   purpose and vitality

   They find purpose in building something that lasts, and their vitality runs slow and steady rather than in bursts. The tension is a reluctance to change course even when the plan is clearly not working. It shows up in how long they stay at one job or one home before they will admit it is time to move.

2. ☽Moon in Libra

   ♎ 9° Libra 39'

   needs and habits

   They need harmony in their immediate surroundings to feel settled day to day, and a tense conversation nearby can throw off their whole afternoon. Comfort comes from pleasant company and pleasant spaces. The tension is smoothing things over before they have worked out what they actually want.

3. ☿Mercury in Aries

   ♈ 29° Aries 55'

   mind and voice

   They think in quick, decisive strokes and say what they mean without much preamble. The tension is speaking before the thought is fully formed, which can come across sharper than intended. It shows up as finishing other people's sentences and preferring a fast decision to a long meeting.

4. ♀Venus in Aries

   ♈ 28° Aries 27' ℞

   love and values

   They love with immediacy and pursue what they want without much hesitation, and they value a partner who can keep up. The tension is losing interest once the chase is over. It shows up as falling for someone fast and needing the relationship to keep feeling like a choice, not a routine.

5. ♂Mars in Scorpio

   ♏ 15° Scorpio 02' ℞

   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.

6. ♃Jupiter in Taurus

   ♉ 15° Taurus 49'

   growth and excess

   They grow through patience, and their luck tends to show up in steady accumulation rather than a single windfall. The overreach is excess, holding onto more comfort or more stuff than actually serves they. It shows up as a generosity with food, gifts and shared pleasures that occasionally tips into indulgence.

7. ♄Saturn in Pisces

   ♓ 2° Pisces 12'

   discipline and doubt

   They build discipline around boundaries, often after an early habit of taking on more feeling than was ever theirs to carry. The doubt shows up as guilt for protecting their own time and energy. It shows up as a quiet, mature compassion that arrives once they learn that a boundary and a closed heart are not the same thing.

8. ♅Uranus in Capricorn

   ♑ 3° Capricorn 41' ℞

   freedom, generational

   Shared by everyone born in this span, this placement marks a generation that dismantles and rebuilds old institutions and authority structures. Personally, it can show up as scepticism toward systems that ask for trust without having earned it.

9. ♆Neptune in Cancer

   ♋ 6° Cancer 18'

   imagination, generational

   Shared across this generation, this placement marks people who idealise home and family, often carrying a wider cultural nostalgia for a version of belonging that may never have quite existed. Personally, it can show up as a soft-focus longing for a childhood home.

10. ♇Pluto in Gemini

    ♊ 20° Gemini 33'

    power, generational

    Shared by everyone born in this span, this placement marks a generation that transforms communication and collective thought itself, often through upheavals in how information is controlled and shared. Personally, it can show up as an intense relationship with what counts as truth.

Aspects

How the planets in Joseph Cotten's chart talk to each other, tightest first.

1. Mars opposition Jupiter

   0.8° separating

   They feel a pull between their own direct action and other people's grander plans or expectations, which can lead to overcommitting to someone else's vision. Trusting their own sense of scale usually serves they better than matching theirs.

2. Mercury conjunction Venus

   1.5° separating

   Their thinking and their sense of what they love are closely linked, so they talk about affection and beauty with real ease. This gives they a naturally diplomatic, pleasant way of expressing themselves, especially when the subject is close to their heart.

3. Saturn sextile Uranus

   1.5° applying

   Their discipline and their independence cooperate, giving they a workable way to keep a routine while still leaving room to change it. This is quiet, sustainable flexibility that keeps a good habit from ever calcifying into an unquestioned rule.

4. Mercury sextile Saturn

   2.3° applying

   Their thinking and their sense of structure cooperate, making it easier to turn a loose idea into something solid. This is quiet, practical clarity that shows up most clearly when a plan actually has to work.
