Margaret Mitchell’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Margaret Mitchell was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on 8 November 1900, a Thursday. Their zodiac sign was Scorpio, with the Moon in Gemini. Margaret died on 16 August 1949, aged 48. StarMap has no verified birth time for Margaret, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
Of the ten planets, four are in fire signs, four in air, one in earth and one in water. Mutable signs hold six, cardinal signs two and fixed signs two. Moon, Neptune and Pluto all fall in Gemini. Mercury, Jupiter and Uranus all fall in Sagittarius. The tightest aspect is Mercury sextile Venus, about 0.5° 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 21 other people born on 8 November, among them Alain Delon, Kazuo Ishiguro and Aaron Swartz.
Margaret Mitchell’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Scorpio
about 15° Scorpio at midday
A Scorpio Sun goes deep. Surface answers are unlikely to satisfy Margaret Mitchell, and with this Sun, loyalty, once given, tends to be total. This placement is built for transformation: it ends chapters fully so the next one can begin.
Moon sign
Gemini
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
The Moon in Gemini processes feeling by naming it. For Margaret, talking, writing and switching perspective are likely ways to settle, and silence can make small worries loud. They probably need people who let them think out loud.
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 Atlanta, Georgia, at each hour of the day.
Margaret Mitchell’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Margaret 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 8 November 1900, computed for Atlanta, Georgia.

Margaret Mitchell’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Margaret Mitchell’s private life.
Sun in Scorpio
15° Scorpio 51' at midday
purpose and vitality
The Sun in Scorpio finds purpose in going past the surface of things, and Margaret Mitchell's vitality tends to be fuelled by intensity rather than ease. The catch can be needing a crisis or a deep dive before they feel fully engaged. Small talk tends to bore them; a subject that interests them absorbs them completely.
Moon in Gemini
Gemini, all day
needs and habits
The Moon in Gemini runs its daily habits on conversation and mental stimulation, and Margaret is likely to settle by talking a worry through rather than sitting with it quietly. A day with no one to talk to can leave them restless. The habit is to message a friend the moment something comes to mind, before deciding what to think about it.
Mercury in Sagittarius
6° Sagittarius 10' at midday
mind and voice
Margaret's Mercury in Sagittarius thinks in big, connective leaps and communicates with enthusiasm and a wide frame of reference drawn from everywhere they have been. The weak point is generalising past what the details support. A specific question may get a sweeping theory nobody quite asked for.
Venus in Libra
5° Libra 40' at midday
love and values
Venus in Libra loves with an instinct for balance and partnership, and Margaret probably values harmony, fairness and someone who makes an effort to look good together. The risk with this Venus is staying in a relationship for the sake of the pairing itself. Margaret may give up a personal preference before anyone has even asked.
Mars in Leo
23° Leo 20' at midday
drive and anger
Mars in Leo acts with confidence and wants the effort to be visible, and for Margaret 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 Sagittarius
14° Sagittarius 01' at midday
growth and excess
With Jupiter in Sagittarius, Margaret 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 Capricorn
1° Capricorn 49' at midday
discipline and doubt
Saturn is at home in Capricorn, a placement that builds discipline as naturally as breathing and often takes on responsibility earlier than most. The doubt, for Margaret, may be never quite believing that enough has been achieved to relax. Others tend to recognise this kind of authority well before it is claimed.
Uranus in Sagittarius
11° Sagittarius 07' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Margaret than about the years around their birth. People of that age transform belief and access to knowledge, often through unprecedented exposure to other cultures and ideas. The personal trace is a restlessness with any single worldview presented as the only one.
Neptune in Gemini
28° Gemini 53' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
The dream of Neptune in Gemini is a collective one, shared across roughly fourteen years of births. The imagination of Margaret's generation is shaped by information moving faster than anyone can fully verify. Its personal form is finding it hard to tell a compelling story apart from a true one.
Pluto in Gemini
17° Gemini 14' at midday ℞
power, generational
Margaret shares Pluto in Gemini with many people born in the same long stretch of years. That generation transforms communication and collective thought, often through upheavals in how information is controlled and shared. The personal portion is an intense relationship with what counts as truth.
Aspects in Margaret Mitchell’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 sextile Venus
about 0.5° at midday
Thinking and affection are easy companions in Margaret Mitchell'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.
Jupiter conjunction Uranus
about 2.9° at midday
Growth comes suddenly and by unconventional routes with Jupiter conjunct Uranus, and Margaret is likely to be drawn to opportunities that break from the expected path. Openness to change is the strength. Following through on one bold idea before moving on to the next is the discipline.
Saturn opposition Neptune
about 2.9° at midday
Grounded, practical planning sits opposite a tendency towards doubt, or disillusionment about whether the effort is worth it, and Margaret is likely to know both. Checking in with the original inspiration, and not only with the workload, tends to restore the balance.
Jupiter opposition Pluto
about 3.2° at midday
In this opposition, the urge to expand outward meets a need to control the process so tightly that it limits the very growth being sought. When Margaret loosens their grip on the outcome, the opportunity itself tends to get through.
Venus square Saturn
about 3.9° at midday
Venus square Saturn can pair the desire for closeness with a fear of not being quite enough to keep it. For Margaret 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 conjunction Uranus
about 5.0° at midday
Margaret'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.
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?
