Kurt Russell’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
17 March 1951 was a Saturday: the day Kurt Russell was born in Springfield, Massachusetts. The Sun was in Pisces, so Pisces is their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Cancer. Kurt turns 75 in 2026. StarMap has not verified a birth time yet, so the chart is cast for midday on that date and has no houses.
By element the count is four fire, four water, one earth and one air. By modality the count is six cardinal, three mutable and one fixed. Mercury, Venus and Mars all fall in Aries. Closest of the aspects is the sextile between Neptune and Pluto, about 0.9° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Three planets were retrograde: Saturn, Neptune and Pluto. The Moon was waxing gibbous, between first quarter and full.
StarMap's dataset holds 22 other people born on 17 March, among them Nat King Cole, Rudolf Nureyev and Gary Sinise. Wikidata links Kurt with one person in the dataset: Goldie Hawn (listed as partners from 1983).

Kurt Russell’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Pisces
about 26° Pisces at midday
A Pisces Sun feels it all. Imagination, empathy and a porous sense of where the self ends and others begin tend to make Kurt Russell the kind of person people confide in. This placement needs boundaries as much as it needs the sea.
Moon sign
Cancer
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
The Moon is at home in Cancer. For Kurt 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 Springfield, Massachusetts, at each hour of the day.

Until then, this is the rising sign for every possible time of birth on 17 March 1951, computed for Springfield, Massachusetts.

Kurt Russell’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Kurt Russell’s private life.
The Sun in Pisces finds purpose in imagination, compassion and things that cannot quite be measured, and Kurt Russell's vitality tends to ebb and flow with their surroundings. The thing to watch is losing their own direction inside someone else's story. There may be days when they feel unstoppable, and others when they need to disappear for a while.
With the Moon in Cancer, Kurt'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 Aries suggests that Kurt thinks in quick, decisive strokes and says what they mean without much preamble. Sometimes the words arrive before the thought is fully formed, which can come across sharper than intended. It is a mind that finishes other people's sentences and prefers a fast decision to a long meeting.
Venus in Aries loves with immediacy and pursues what it wants without much hesitation, and it values a partner who can keep up. For Kurt that suggests an interest that can fade once the chase is over. The pattern is to fall fast and to need a relationship to keep feeling like a choice, not a routine.
For Kurt, Mars in Aries points to acting immediately and decisively, with anger that tends to flare fast, hot and honest before it clears. The downside is acting before a situation has been thought all the way through. The argument or the project tends to start the second the impulse arrives, with little patience for waiting.
Jupiter in Pisces
21° Pisces 46' at midday
growth and excess
For Kurt, Jupiter in Pisces means finding growth in compassion, imagination and a willingness to trust things that cannot be fully explained. The overreach is an idealism about people or situations that the facts do not quite support. Others lean on this generosity of spirit more than they let on.
Competence is what Saturn in Virgo builds discipline around, often driven by a fear of not yet having done enough to deserve rest. Kurt may feel like a fraud even when the track record says otherwise. The usual result is someone quietly excellent at something long before they will admit it out loud.
Uranus in Cancer
5° Cancer 24' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Cancer belongs to an age group rather than to Kurt alone. Its mark is a generation that redefines home and family, departing from the structures the previous generation grew up inside. At the personal level it is read as a pull to build family life differently.
Neptune in Libra
18° Libra 45' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Kurt 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
17° Leo 49' 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 Kurt, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Kurt Russell’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.
Sun opposition Saturn
about 2.9° at midday
With the Sun opposite Saturn, Kurt Russell is likely to find that asserting who they are brings them up against the caution, rules or authority figures that seem to stand in the way. Working through that tension builds a confidence that does not need everyone's approval to hold steady.
Mercury square Uranus
about 3.0° at midday
With Mercury square Uranus, the mind can jump so quickly that other people struggle to follow, or Kurt may dismiss a slower approach that had merit. A good idea, paced, gives other people the chance to use it.
Mercury opposition Saturn
about 3.2° at midday
Under Mercury opposite Saturn, a doubt can creep into Kurt's thinking about whether it is good enough to share. Speaking the imperfect version out loud matters more than waiting for the polished one.
Sun conjunction Jupiter
about 4.5° at midday
Kurt'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 Pluto
about 5.7° at midday
Resilience under pressure, and the ability to come back stronger from a setback, are the marks of this trine between drive and the capacity for change. In Kurt's chart the aspect points to a quiet, formidable strength, the kind other people notice mainly in how little it seems to cost.
Sun conjunction Mercury
about 6.1° at midday
With the Sun conjunct Mercury, Kurt's sense of self and way of thinking are fused, so an opinion can feel like a statement of who they are. They are likely to speak their mind readily, and telling a passing thought apart from their identity is a practice worth keeping up.
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?
