Gemini Sun · Moon in Sagittarius or Capricorn
Klaus Meine’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Klaus Meine was born in Hanover, Germany, on 25 May 1948, a Tuesday. The Sun was in Gemini, so Gemini is their zodiac sign. The Moon changed sign at about 07:10, from Sagittarius to Capricorn; which of the two is the Moon sign depends on the hour of birth. Klaus turns 78 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Klaus, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
By element the count is four air, three fire, one earth and one water, leaving out the Moon, whose sign depends on the birth time. By modality the count is five mutable, two cardinal and two fixed. Three planets stand together in Gemini: Sun, Mercury and Uranus. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mercury and Jupiter: an opposition, about 0.1° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Jupiter and Neptune were retrograde. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 16 other people born on 25 May, among them Ian McKellen, Cillian Murphy and Mike Myers.

Klaus Meine’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Gemini
about 4° Gemini at midday
A Gemini Sun connects. Ideas, people and conversations are its element, and Klaus Meine probably learns by talking things through. This placement is happiest with two projects and a question nobody has answered yet.
Moon sign
Sagittarius or Capricorn
Sagittarius until about 07:10, then Capricorn (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 07:10: Moon in Sagittarius
A Sagittarius Moon feels best in motion. Open roads, new ideas and honest laughter probably lift Klaus, and being fenced in by other people's moods tends to weigh them down. This Moon needs room, and someone who thinks that is fine.
Born after about 07:10: Moon in Capricorn
A Capricorn Moon feels responsibly. With it, Klaus 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 Hanover, Germany, at each hour of the day.
Klaus Meine’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Klaus 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 25 May 1948, computed for Hanover, Germany.

Klaus Meine’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Klaus Meine’s private life.
For Klaus Meine, the Sun in Gemini means vitality that comes from variety, and purpose that feels most real when they are learning or explaining something new. What suffers is focus, with energy scattered across too many half-finished things at once. Several projects and three hobbies on the go at the same time would be in character.

Sagittarius until about 07:10, then Capricorn
needs and habits
Born before about 07:10: Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon in Sagittarius needs room to move and a bit of novelty in its routine to feel right. A schedule with no give in it can make Klaus edgy faster than most people expect. With this Moon, the next trip tends to be planned before the current one has finished.
Born after about 07:10: Moon in Capricorn
With the Moon in Capricorn, Klaus'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.
Klaus's Mercury in Gemini describes a mind that moves fast across many subjects at once and communicates easily in almost any setting. The tension is skimming the surface of a topic and moving on before going deep enough to be sure of it. The result is knowing a little about a great many things.
Venus in Cancer loves by nurturing, and for Klaus that suggests valuing emotional safety over almost anything else in a relationship. Old hurts tend to linger here long after the person who caused them has changed. This is a Venus that feeds people, checks on people and quietly keeps score of who has shown up in return.
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, Klaus is more likely to criticise than to confront. A clipped tone often signals frustration well before anything is said directly.
Jupiter in Sagittarius
26° Sagittarius 35' at midday ℞
growth and excess
With Jupiter in Sagittarius, Klaus 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 in Leo builds discipline around self-expression, and in Klaus's chart this placement often starts with a fear of being laughed at or overlooked. The doubt tends to show as playing down achievements before anyone else can. The confidence this placement builds is hard-won and unshowy, and it tends to arrive once the waiting for permission stops.
Uranus in Gemini
24° Gemini 57' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Gemini is shared by Klaus 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
10° Libra 24' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Klaus 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
12° Leo 45' 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 Klaus, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Klaus Meine’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 opposition Jupiter
about 0.1° at midday
With Mercury opposite Jupiter, Klaus Meine's own considered opinion has to compete with other people's big claims and grand theories, and it is easy to get swept into someone else's certainty. For Klaus, trusting their own careful thinking usually works better than borrowing that confidence.
Venus square Neptune
about 0.6° 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. Klaus's task is to love what is there, which tends to prove more durable than loving the fantasy.
Sun square Mars
about 1.3° at midday
Impatience, or a habit of picking fights that did not need picking, can come from the clash between Klaus's sense of self and their drive to act. With the Sun square Mars, a pause between the impulse and the action turns this friction into determination they can use.
Jupiter opposition Uranus
about 1.6° at midday
One side of this opposition wants Klaus to expand along a familiar path; the other wants them to leave it entirely for something untested. Neither impulse needs to win outright, and trying the new direction on a smaller scale first tends to serve them well.
Mercury conjunction Uranus
about 1.7° at midday
Klaus's thinking is likely to be quick, original and a step ahead of convention, with insights that arrive suddenly rather than through slow reasoning. Mercury conjunct Uranus makes for inventive thinking, and the courtesy worth learning is explaining the leap so that other people can follow it too.
Saturn conjunction Pluto
about 4.3° at midday
Saturn conjunct Pluto describes discipline forged through intensity, often after a period that asked for more endurance than seemed fair at the time. For Klaus the aspect suggests serious, hard-won resilience, and the remaining step is trusting that what needed proving has been proved.
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?
