Louis de Funès’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief

31 July 1914 was a Friday: the day Louis de Funès was born in Courbevoie, France. The Sun was in Leo, so Leo was their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Scorpio and Gemini rising. Louis died on 27 January 1983, aged 68. The birth time, 01:00, comes from Astro-Databank with a Rodden rating of AA, which means it was quoted from a birth certificate or birth record.

Water carries the most weight: four of the ten planets, against air three, earth two and fire one. Fixed signs hold four, cardinal signs three and mutable signs three. Mercury, Neptune and Pluto all fall in Cancer. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Moon and Mars: a sextile, 0.1° from exact. Two planets were retrograde: Jupiter and Uranus. The Moon was waxing gibbous, between first quarter and full.

Louis de Funès’s Sun, Moon and rising sign

Sun sign

Leo

6° Leo 58'

A Leo Sun shines. For Louis de Funès that suggests warmth, generosity and a need to be seen for who they really are, running through much of what they do. This placement grows by learning that the light is not diminished when it is shared.

All Leo Suns

Moon sign

Scorpio

20° Scorpio 49'

The Moon in Scorpio feels everything and shows little. For Louis 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

Gemini

25° Gemini 10'

On first meeting, Louis probably seems curious, quick and easy to talk to. People with Gemini rising tend to look younger than their years and to be hard to pin down, and a conversation with them usually goes somewhere.

Louis de Funès’s planets, sign by sign

Each planet by sign and house: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Louis de Funès’s private life.

  1. Sun in Leo

    6° Leo 58' · third house

    purpose and vitality

    Purpose for Louis de Funès is probably tied to creating and being seen doing it, and a Leo Sun's vitality rises the moment there is an audience, even an audience of one. The tension is losing steam when no one is watching. The giveaway is often the extra effort that goes into something the moment someone notices them making it.

    What energises Louis is talking, writing and swapping ideas with whoever happens to be around that day. With the Sun in the third house, curiosity is not a side interest but close to the core of who they are, and a good conversation can change their whole mood.

  2. Moon in Scorpio

    20° Scorpio 49' · sixth house

    needs and habits

    For Louis, 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.

    The Moon in the sixth house ties the sense that all is well to daily routine, and an unpredictable schedule can leave Louis more rattled than the problem itself warrants. Small, dependable habits, kept even loosely, calm them faster than anything else.

  3. Mercury in Cancer

    19° Cancer 29' · second house

    mind and voice

    Mercury in Cancer thinks in terms of memory and feeling as much as logic, and Louis probably communicates best when there is emotional trust in the room. Mood can colour how a fact gets delivered or received. Years after the details have faded, this is a mind that remembers exactly how a conversation felt.

    With Mercury in the second house, Louis weighs up what things are worth with care and holds clear, well-reasoned opinions about value that they can explain in detail. Talking a choice or a plan through out loud helps them settle on the right one.

  4. Venus in Virgo

    17° Virgo 51' · fourth house

    love and values

    With Venus in Virgo, Louis is likely to love through small, practical acts of service and to value competence and reliability in a partner. People with this Venus tend to be hardest on those they love most, and can mistake giving notes for giving care. They may try to fix a partner's problem before simply listening to it.

    Venus in the fourth house wants a home that feels beautiful and welcoming, and Louis probably puts steady care into making it that way for themselves and for guests. The placement puts a high value on harmony at home, so discord there is apt to be felt quickly.

  5. Mars in Virgo

    20° Virgo 54' · fourth house

    drive and anger

    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, Louis is more likely to criticise than to confront. A clipped tone often signals frustration well before anything is said directly.

    Mars in the fourth house puts a lot of energy into home and family, and in Louis's chart it points to a protective instinct towards the people close to them. The placement is also linked with an urge to build, repair and rearrange, so that home is rarely a place that stands still.

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius

    18° Aquarius 44' ℞ · ninth house

    growth and excess

    Jupiter in Aquarius grows through community, ideas and causes bigger than one life. Louis may put so much trust in a theory or a group that its practical flaws are overlooked. Optimism about the future can make them a natural organiser of other people's efforts.

    The ninth house is Jupiter's natural home, and travel, higher learning and big philosophical questions excite Louis more than almost anything else. Someone with this placement is often the first to say yes to the unplanned trip or the ambitious course of study.

  7. Saturn in Gemini

    27° Gemini 33' · first house

    discipline and doubt

    Saturn in Gemini builds discipline around clear expression, and it often begins with doubt about whether an idea is good enough to say out loud. For Louis that would mean overpreparing before speaking or writing anything. Once the self-consciousness eases, the result can be someone unusually precise and credible with words.

    Seriousness tends to arrive early with Saturn in the first house, and Louis's self-confidence is the kind that comes through lived experience rather than being handed over at the start. They would rather build slowly and with care, and trust what is made that way.

  8. Uranus in Aquarius

    9° Aquarius 45' ℞ · ninth house

    freedom, generational

    Uranus is at home in Aquarius, and many people born in the years around Louis's birth have it too. The generation is defined by rapid technological and social change within a single lifetime. One person's share of it is an unusually easy relationship with disruption and reinvention.

    With Uranus in the ninth house, Louis may be drawn to unusual places and ideas that question the usual view of how things work. A single fixed philosophy rarely holds the interest of someone with this placement, who would rather keep updating a view of the world than settle it once and for all.

  9. Neptune in Cancer

    28° Cancer 18' · second house

    imagination, generational

    Neptune in Cancer is shared by Louis and many people born in the same decade or so. The generation idealises home and family, often carrying a wider nostalgia for a version of belonging that may never quite have existed. Personally it can be a soft-focus longing for a childhood home.

    Neptune in the second house holds material things loosely, and what Louis owns probably matters less to them than what it means. The placement leans towards intangible values, the kind that are hard to set out in a list and easier to recognise in practice.

  10. Pluto in Cancer

    1° Cancer 30' · first house

    power, generational

    Pluto in Cancer dates Louis to an era rather than describing one person. Those born in it live through deep transformation of family, home and nationhood. What an individual may carry is intensity around belonging and who counts as family.

    Louis probably carries an intensity that people sense even when very little is said, and Pluto in the first house suggests a sense of self that can be remade more than once. Louis is not easily changed by outside pressure, and other people tend to notice that quickly.

Aspects in Louis de Funès’s chart

How the planets stand to each other, tightest first.

  1. Moon sextile Mars

    0.1° separating

    Louis de Funès's feelings and drive pull together, which makes it easier to act on an emotional instinct without overthinking it. The courage involved is the everyday kind, at work in small moments nobody else notices.

  2. Moon trine Mercury

    1.3° separating

    Louis can probably explain what they feel almost as soon as they feel it, because feeling and thinking flow together easily here. A Moon-Mercury trine makes for a comforting voice in emotional moments, and people with it are often the ones others call first when something has gone wrong.

  3. Mercury sextile Mars

    1.4° separating

    Speaking up quickly and clearly when it matters comes easily to Louis, since thinking and drive work in step. That plain directness serves them well in fast-moving conversations and quick decisions alike.

  4. Mercury sextile Venus

    1.6° applying

    Thinking and affection are easy companions in Louis's chart, which gives them a natural charm in how they communicate. With Mercury sextile Venus, expressing appreciation and finding the right words go together, especially in moments when they want someone to feel noticed.

  5. Moon square Jupiter

    2.1° separating

    Emotional generosity can run ahead of what can be sustained when the Moon is square Jupiter, and Louis may end up overcommitting their time or their care. Generosity with limits lasts longer, for them and for everyone else, than generosity offered with no limits at all.

  6. Sun opposition Uranus

    2.8° applying

    With the Sun opposite Uranus, Louis's loyalty to their own path tends to bring them into collision with people or situations that expect conformity. Learning to be themselves without needing the collision gives them a quieter, more durable kind of independence.
