Koji Yamase’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
22 September 1981 was a Tuesday: the day Koji Yamase was born in Sapporo, Japan. The Sun was in Virgo, so Virgo is their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Cancer. Koji turns 45 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for Koji; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
By element the count is four air, three water, two fire and one earth. By modality the count is five cardinal, three fixed and two mutable. Libra holds a stellium, four planets in one sign: Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto. The tightest aspect is Neptune sextile Pluto, about 1.1° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. No planet was retrograde. Over the course of the day the Moon went from last quarter to waning crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 16 other people born on 22 September, among them Andrea Bocelli, Thiago Silva and Tom Felton.

Koji Yamase’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Virgo
about 29° Virgo at midday
A Virgo Sun refines. Koji Yamase is likely to notice what could be better and quietly make it so, keeping the highest standards for themselves. The art of this placement is knowing when good enough is the wiser choice.
Moon sign
Cancer
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
The Moon is at home in Cancer. For Koji that points to feelings that are tidal, strong and closely tied to the people they love, and to a memory for how everything felt. This Moon is restored by home, by cooking, and by being needed.
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 Sapporo, Japan, at each hour of the day.
Koji Yamase’s rising sign, by birth time

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 22 September 1981, computed for Sapporo, Japan.

Koji Yamase’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Koji Yamase’s private life.
A Virgo Sun finds purpose in being useful and doing a job properly, and Koji Yamase's energy tends to stay steady as long as there is a task worth doing well. Rest is the hard part, because it can feel undeserved until everything is fixed. Typically a piece of work is still being adjusted long after everyone else would call it finished.
With the Moon in Cancer, Koji's needs tend to be tied to home, routine and the people they check in on daily. Small rituals are steadying: a particular meal, a particular chair. The tension is reading other people's moods so closely that those moods can be taken on without noticing.
Mercury in Libra thinks by weighing both sides, and Koji tends to communicate diplomatically, often finding the version of an idea that will land well with whoever is listening. Settling on an opinion can take so long that the moment for it passes. They may change their mind in the middle of a conversation because the other point had merit.
Venus in Scorpio loves intensely and privately, and Koji 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 Leo acts with confidence and wants the effort to be visible, and for Koji its anger is likely to flare when pride or loyalty is challenged. The tension is turning a disagreement into a matter of ego. Criticism of the work can feel personal to a Leo Mars, even when it was not meant that way.
Jupiter in Libra
15° Libra 59' at midday
growth and excess
In Koji's chart, Jupiter in Libra suggests growth through partnership and a gift for bringing people together. Excess here looks like pleasing people so broadly that every expectation becomes a commitment. Someone with this Jupiter is often the connector whose introductions and events other people benefit from more than they realise.
For Koji, Saturn in Libra means discipline built around relationships, and fairness and commitment are trusted slowly. The doubt is overthinking whether a partnership is truly equal. With time, people with this Saturn tend to become the ones others rely on to negotiate and to keep things fair.
Uranus in Scorpio
27° Scorpio 02' at midday
freedom, generational
Much of Koji's age group has Uranus in Scorpio. It changes attitudes to power, secrecy and what is held in common, often while living through upheavals in institutions once considered permanent. In an individual it tends to be a low tolerance for hidden agendas.
Neptune in Sagittarius
22° Sagittarius 10' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Koji in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
23° Libra 16' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Koji belongs to, because Pluto moves so slowly. That generation transforms ideas of partnership, fairness and what people owe one another. Personally it can be an intense need for relationships to be fundamentally fair.
Aspects in Koji Yamase’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.
Mars sextile Saturn
about 1.5° at midday
Sustained effort feels manageable, not draining, when Mars and Saturn are in sextile, and Koji Yamase has that combination of drive and discipline. What results is quiet, dependable follow-through, the kind that gets a long project finished while flashier approaches give out halfway.
Mercury conjunction Pluto
about 1.9° at midday
Koji's thinking is likely to be probing and intense, drawn to what lies underneath a surface explanation. With Mercury conjunct Pluto, getting to the bottom of things comes naturally, and the caution is not to assume a hidden motive where an ordinary one will do.
Venus square Mars
about 1.9° at midday
Desire and the need for harmony can clash where Venus squares Mars, and Koji may be caught between wanting something and wanting to keep the peace. What the aspect asks for is a want voiced directly, before it leaks out sideways.
Sun sextile Uranus
about 2.0° at midday
There is room for Koji to be a little unconventional without losing much by it, since identity and originality get along well here. Other people tend to find this easy, unforced independence refreshing rather than alarming.
Mercury sextile Neptune
about 3.0° at midday
Koji's thinking and imagination cooperate gently, so creative and intuitive ideas are within easy reach. The inventiveness is soft and pleasant rather than analytical, useful for easing a difficult conversation without losing the point of it.
Mars sextile Jupiter
about 3.4° at midday
There is confident, well-aimed energy in this sextile, and not much wasted effort, since Koji's drive and optimism pull together. Taking the initiative suits Koji, above all when they commit to one goal and do not scatter their energy across several.
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?
