Katina Paxinou’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Katina Paxinou was born in Piraeus, Greece, on 17 December 1900, a Monday. Their zodiac sign was Sagittarius. The Moon changed sign at about 06:09, from Libra to Scorpio; which of the two is the Moon sign depends on the hour of birth. Katina died on 22 February 1973, aged 72. No verified birth time is on file for Katina; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Fire carries the most weight: four of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, against earth two, air two and water one. Mutable signs hold seven, cardinal signs one and fixed signs one. Sagittarius holds a stellium, four planets in one sign: Sun, Mercury, Jupiter and Uranus. Closest of the aspects is the square between Mercury and Mars, about 2.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Neptune and Pluto were retrograde. The Moon was a waning crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 16 other people born on 17 December, among them Pope Francis, Milla Jovovich and Manny Pacquiao.

Katina Paxinou’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Sagittarius
about 25° Sagittarius at midday
A Sagittarius Sun seeks. Meaning, distance and the bigger picture are likely to pull Katina Paxinou forward, and the honesty of this placement is a kind of generosity. Its lesson is that the journey also needs somewhere to land.
Moon sign
Libra or Scorpio
Libra until about 06:09, then Scorpio (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 06:09: Moon in Libra
A Libra Moon feels through relationship. Harmony nearby tends to settle Katina, and conflict, even other people's, can unsettle them. What restores this Moon is beauty, fairness, and one person who truly listens.
Born after about 06:09: Moon in Scorpio
The Moon in Scorpio feels everything and shows little. For Katina that suggests trust that is slow, private and absolute; betrayal, once it happens, is not forgotten. This Moon is restored by intimacy without performance and by time alone to let things move.
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 Piraeus, Greece, at each hour of the day.
Katina Paxinou’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Katina 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 17 December 1900, computed for Piraeus, Greece.

Katina Paxinou’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Katina Paxinou’s private life.
Growth, travel and ideas bigger than daily life are where Katina Paxinou's Sagittarius Sun finds purpose, and their energy tends to lift the moment there is somewhere new to go. Familiarity is what wears on this placement. A few months into any routine, however good it is, restlessness usually sets in.
Moon in Libra or Scorpio
Libra until about 06:09, then Scorpio
needs and habits
Born before about 06:09: Moon in Libra
A Libra Moon needs harmony in the immediate surroundings to feel settled day to day, and a tense conversation nearby can throw off Katina's whole afternoon. Comfort comes from pleasant company and pleasant spaces. The habit to watch is smoothing things over before they have worked out what they want.
Born after about 06:09: Moon in Scorpio
For Katina, the Moon in Scorpio means emotional needs that run deep and private, and a preference for managing a hard feeling alone over explaining it while it is still raw. Trust builds slowly and is rarely given back once broken. Even among the people closest to them, this Moon is likely to need real privacy.
Katina'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.
Venus in Scorpio loves intensely and privately, and Katina is likely to value depth and total honesty over ease. Testing loyalty can create the very distance this placement fears most. There is an all-or-nothing quality to how this Venus commits, with little interest in anything in between.
Mars in Virgo acts carefully and precisely, preferring to get a task right over getting it done fast, and its anger usually comes from things being done sloppily. When upset, Katina is more likely to criticise than to confront. A clipped tone often signals frustration well before anything is said directly.
Jupiter in Sagittarius
22° Sagittarius 39' at midday
growth and excess
With Jupiter in Sagittarius, Katina 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.
Saturn is at home in Capricorn, a placement that builds discipline as naturally as breathing and often takes on responsibility earlier than most. The doubt, for Katina, may be never quite believing that enough has been achieved to relax. Others tend to recognise this kind of authority well before it is claimed.
Uranus in Sagittarius
13° Sagittarius 27' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Katina than about the years around their birth. People of that age transform belief and access to knowledge, often through unprecedented exposure to other cultures and ideas. The personal trace is a restlessness with any single worldview presented as the only one.
Neptune in Gemini
27° Gemini 55' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
The dream of Neptune in Gemini is a collective one, shared across roughly fourteen years of births. The imagination of Katina's generation is shaped by information moving faster than anyone can fully verify. Its personal form is finding it hard to tell a compelling story apart from a true one.
Pluto in Gemini
16° Gemini 31' at midday ℞
power, generational
Katina 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 Katina Paxinou’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.
Mercury square Mars
about 2.2° at midday
With Mercury square Mars, thought and impulse can clash, and sharp words get said before Katina Paxinou has fully thought them through. The remedy is a short pause between the thought and the sentence, which changes very little except the outcome.
Sun conjunction Jupiter
about 2.4° at midday
Katina's identity carries a natural optimism and a generous sense of scale, so they tend to think bigger than the room requires. Confidence comes easily with the Sun conjunct Jupiter, and the discipline worth building is matching that optimism with follow-through.
Mars trine Saturn
about 2.6° at midday
Staying power on long, difficult goals is what Mars trine Saturn offers, with drive and discipline reinforcing each other. Katina is likely to get more done, more consistently, than the visible effort would suggest, which is a quiet advantage over time.
Sun opposition Neptune
about 2.9° at midday
For Katina, 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.
Mars square Uranus
about 4.9° at midday
This square can make drive turn abrupt, leading to sudden decisions or breaks that surprise Katina as much as they surprise everyone nearby. A brief pause before the impulsive move keeps the courage and loses the recklessness.
Jupiter opposition Neptune
about 5.3° at midday
The choice, as this opposition frames it for Katina, is between pursuing a real opportunity and getting lost chasing an idealised version that does not quite exist. Testing an exciting idea against the plain facts protects the optimism; it does not undermine 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?
