Kim Jong Il’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Kim Jong Il was born on Sunday, 16 February 1941, in Vyatskoye, Russia. That made them an Aquarius, with the Moon in Libra. They died on 17 December 2011, aged 70. No verified birth time is on file for them; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
By element the count is four earth, three air, two fire and one water. Fixed signs hold six, mutable signs three and cardinal signs one. Taurus holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus. They are slow planets, so the grouping is shared with people born around the same time. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Jupiter and Saturn: a conjunction, about 0.1° 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 waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 17 other people born on 16 February, among them Elizabeth Olsen, Diego Godín and John McEnroe.
Kim Jong Il’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Aquarius
about 27° Aquarius at midday
An Aquarius Sun sees differently. Ideas ahead of their time, a wide circle of friends and a stubborn streak of independence are the marks of this placement in Kim Jong Il's chart. The growth is letting people close without feeling caged.
Moon sign
Libra
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Libra Moon feels through relationship. Harmony nearby tends to settle Kim Jong Il, and conflict, even other people's, can unsettle them. What restores this Moon is beauty, fairness, and one person who truly listens.
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 Vyatskoye, Russia, at each hour of the day.
Kim Jong Il’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Kim Jong Il 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 16 February 1941, computed for Vyatskoye, Russia.

Kim Jong Il’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Kim Jong Il’s private life.
Sun in Aquarius
27° Aquarius 01' at midday
purpose and vitality
Kim Jong Il's purpose, with the Sun in Aquarius, probably lies in being useful to a group or an idea bigger than themselves, with a vitality that rises around causes and communities. The tension can be detaching from their own needs while championing everyone else's. It is the placement of the reliable one at meetings who is the hardest person to reach one to one.
Moon in Libra
Libra, all day
needs and habits
A Libra Moon needs harmony in the immediate surroundings to feel settled day to day, and a tense conversation nearby can throw off Kim Jong Il'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.
Mercury in Pisces
13° Pisces 17' at midday
mind and voice
Mercury in Pisces thinks in images and impressions more than straight lines, and Kim Jong Il is likely to communicate through metaphor, tone and instinct rather than clean argument. Explaining a conclusion they nonetheless feel certain about can be the struggle. It is the kind of mind that knows something is off before it can say why.
Venus in Aquarius
11° Aquarius 27' at midday
love and values
Venus in Aquarius loves as a friend first, and values independence, shared ideas and a partner who allows plenty of room. Kim Jong Il may keep just enough distance that closeness feels slightly out of reach, even to them. This Venus can prize a partner's individuality more than the intimacy between them.
Mars in Sagittarius
28° Sagittarius 41' at midday
drive and anger
Mars in Sagittarius acts boldly and wants room to move while doing it, and its anger flares fast over anything that feels like a limit on freedom. Kim Jong Il may speak bluntly in the heat of the moment and smooth it over later. Given the choice, this placement walks away from a fight rather than staying to work it out.
Jupiter in Taurus
9° Taurus 14' at midday
growth and excess
In Kim Jong Il's chart, Jupiter in Taurus grows through patience, and what it builds tends to come together slowly and steadily rather than in one leap. Taken too far, that can become excess: holding on to more comfort or more stuff than serves them. They are probably generous with food, gifts and shared pleasures, and now and then generosity tips into indulgence.
Saturn in Taurus
9° Taurus 10' at midday
discipline and doubt
Saturn in Taurus gathers its discipline around security and the things a person relies on, and Kim Jong Il 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.
Uranus in Taurus
22° Taurus 16' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Taurus is a generational placement that Kim Jong Il shares with many people born within a few years. That generation rethinks ownership, land and what security means, often through technology that unsettles older arrangements. Personally, that may be a reluctance to prize things simply because an older generation did.
Neptune in Virgo
27° Virgo 05' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune moves slowly, so Kim Jong Il shares its place in Virgo with people born years either side. The imagination of this generation turns towards service, craft and idealised routines of self-improvement. In one life it can mean chasing an impossibly perfect daily practice.
Pluto in Leo
2° Leo 40' 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 Kim Jong Il, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Kim Jong Il’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.
Jupiter conjunction Saturn
about 0.1° at midday
Growth and discipline are unusually well matched when Jupiter is conjunct Saturn, so Kim Jong Il's optimism tends to come with a realistic plan attached. It is an effective combination for building things that last, with vision balanced by the patience to see it through.
Mars square Neptune
about 1.6° at midday
Under this square, drive can dissolve into confusion or self-doubt just when clarity matters most, especially around goals that involve other people's expectations. It helps Kim Jong Il to separate the plan itself from the feeling of overwhelm that surrounds it.
Sun sextile Mars
about 1.7° at midday
Kim Jong Il's identity and energy work together, giving them an easy confidence that is there when they decide to use it. With this aspect, taking the initiative comes more naturally than might be expected, especially when the stakes are theirs to own.
Venus square Jupiter
about 2.2° at midday
Under this square, Kim Jong Il's generosity can run past what is sustainable, whether in time, affection or promises made in a warm moment. The warmth is sincere; the work is matching it to a scale that can be kept up over the months that follow the excitement, not only the first one.
Venus square Saturn
about 2.3° at midday
Venus square Saturn can pair the desire for closeness with a fear of not being quite enough to keep it. For Kim Jong Il that may mean self-doubt in relationships that have given no reason for it, and the fear can ease each time they let themselves be loved without first having to deserve it.
Mercury sextile Jupiter
about 4.0° at midday
Kim Jong Il'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.
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?
