Mikel Arteta’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Mikel Arteta was born in San Sebastián, Spain, on 26 March 1982, a Friday. That makes Mikel an Aries, with the Moon in Aries. Mikel turns 44 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for Mikel; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Of the ten planets, four are in fire signs, four in air and two in water; none is in earth. Cardinal signs hold five, mutable signs three and fixed signs two. Libra holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Mars, Saturn and Pluto. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Venus and Saturn: a trine, about 0.8° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto were retrograde. Over the course of the day the Moon went from new to waxing crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 24 other people born on 26 March, among them Richard Dawkins, Keira Knightley and Larry Page.

Mikel Arteta’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Aries
about 5° Aries at midday
An Aries Sun starts things. For Mikel Arteta that points to energy that is direct and impatient with delay, and to feeling most like themselves when there is something to go first at. The work of this placement is finishing what the spark began.
Moon sign
Aries
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
With the Moon in Aries, Mikel is likely to feel fast and forgive fast. Anger comes up quickly and passes just as quickly, and feeling needs a physical outlet. This is a Moon soothed by action, not by talking it over.
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 San Sebastián, Spain, at each hour of the day.

Mikel Arteta’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Mikel Arteta’s private life.
With the Sun in Aries, Mikel Arteta's sense of purpose tends to come alive when there is a clear start line. They probably feel most like themselves pushing into something new, though that energy can burn hot and fade before the finish. The typical pattern is a project launched with excitement, then handed off once the routine sets in.
The Moon in Aries keeps day-to-day needs simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. For Mikel, comfort probably comes from action rather than discussion. The instinct of this Moon is to pace the room or go for a walk rather than sit with a feeling until it passes on its own.
Mercury in Pisces thinks in images and impressions more than straight lines, and Mikel is likely to communicate through metaphor, tone and instinct rather than clean argument. Explaining a conclusion they nonetheless feel certain about can be the struggle. It is the kind of mind that knows something is off before it can say why.
Venus in Aquarius loves as a friend first, and values independence, shared ideas and a partner who allows plenty of room. Mikel may keep just enough distance that closeness feels slightly out of reach, even to them. This Venus can prize a partner's individuality more than the intimacy between them.
In Mikel's chart, Mars in Libra acts diplomatically and prefers negotiation to confrontation, and its anger tends to stay buried until it is too big to ignore. Avoided consistently, conflict leaves resentment building underneath the calm surface. The pattern is saying yes to something that rankled, then feeling it later.
Jupiter in Scorpio
8° Scorpio 56' at midday ℞
growth and excess
Jupiter in Scorpio grows by facing what is difficult rather than avoiding it, even when that is the harder road at the time. The overreach, for Mikel, may be an intensity that turns a manageable situation into an all-consuming one. The resilience tends to be noticed only after the hard part is over.
For Mikel, 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 Sagittarius
4° Sagittarius 30' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Mikel 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 Sagittarius
27° Sagittarius 02' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Mikel in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
26° Libra 06' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Mikel 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 Mikel Arteta’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.
Venus trine Saturn
about 0.8° at midday
A steady, dependable way of loving, one that people trust, is what this trine gives Mikel Arteta, since affection and commitment hold each other up. Relationships built on it tend to last, often well past the point where less committed people would have moved on.
Sun trine Uranus
about 1.0° at midday
Being original feels easy rather than effortful with this aspect, because Mikel's sense of self and need for freedom sit comfortably together. They are likely to gravitate towards places that let them be exactly who they are without much friction.
Saturn conjunction Pluto
about 6.2° 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 Mikel the aspect suggests serious, hard-won resilience, and the remaining step is trusting that what needed proving has been proved.
Sun opposition Mars
about 6.8° at midday
The Sun opposite Mars pits self-assertion against putting other people's wishes first, and for Mikel that can play out as a tug of war with partners or rivals. Learning to want things directly, without needing a fight to justify the wanting, settles more than it stirs up.
Mars conjunction Saturn
about 7.7° at midday
With Mars conjunct Saturn, drive is disciplined and controlled, and Mikel is likely to channel energy into long, patient effort in place of short bursts. It makes them capable of sustained work. The risk is that caution talks them out of acting when the moment calls for it.
One more aspect, listed without a reading. It is between two of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, whose aspects hold for years at a time, so everyone born while it 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?
