Nas’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
14 September 1973 was a Friday: the day Nas was born in Brooklyn, New York. That makes Nas a Virgo, with the Moon in Aries. Nas turns 53 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for Nas; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
By element the count is four air, two fire, two earth and two water. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is five, three and two. Mercury, Uranus and Pluto all fall in Libra. The tightest aspect is Saturn square Pluto, exact to a tenth of a degree. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Jupiter was retrograde. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 11 other people born on 14 September, among them Dmitry Medvedev, Amy Winehouse and Sam Neill. Andrew Lincoln was born on the very same day. Wikidata links Nas with one person in the dataset: Mary J. Blige (listed as partners in Wikidata).

Nas’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Virgo
about 21° Virgo at midday
A Virgo Sun refines. Nas 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
Aries
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
With the Moon in Aries, Nas 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 Brooklyn, New York, at each hour of the day.
Nas’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Nas 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 14 September 1973, computed for Brooklyn, New York.

Nas’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Nas’s private life.
A Virgo Sun finds purpose in being useful and doing a job properly, and Nas'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.
The Moon in Aries keeps day-to-day needs simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. For Nas, 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 Libra thinks by weighing both sides, and Nas 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 Nas 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 Taurus acts deliberately and sticks with a course once chosen, and its anger builds slowly but takes a long time to cool once it arrives. At times Nas may dig in out of stubbornness rather than conviction. It takes real provocation to make this Mars snap, and the rattled feeling tends to last a while afterwards.
Jupiter in Aquarius
2° Aquarius 36' at midday ℞
growth and excess
Jupiter in Aquarius grows through community, ideas and causes bigger than one life. Nas 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.
Emotional security is where Nas's Saturn in Cancer builds discipline; it is a placement often associated with learning early to be the steady one. Asking for care tends to be difficult with this Saturn, even when care is clearly needed. Over time, people with this placement often become the dependable anchor for others, including some who never quite return the favour.
Uranus in Libra
21° Libra 28' at midday
freedom, generational
Nas holds Uranus in Libra in common with many people born in the same stretch of years. Together that generation reshapes ideas of partnership, fairness and how relationships are arranged. Its personal side is a readiness to question traditional roles more openly than earlier generations felt able to.
Neptune in Sagittarius
4° Sagittarius 53' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Nas in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
3° Libra 47' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Nas 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 Nas’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.
Saturn square Pluto
about 0.0° at midday
Saturn square Pluto sets the need for control against the instinct for transformation, and Nas may grip a structure most tightly at the very moment it needs to change. Each old form that is let go leaves a strength behind that is more real than the grip was.
Mercury trine Jupiter
about 0.9° at midday
Nas's thinking and sense of possibility reinforce each other, which gives them an easy, optimistic way of connecting ideas. Learning and explaining come naturally with Mercury trine Jupiter, and a good explanation of theirs tends to stay with people long after the conversation ends.
Venus square Jupiter
about 1.1° at midday
Under this square, Nas's generosity can run past what is sustainable, whether in time, affection or promises made in a warm moment. The warmth is sincere; the work is matching it to a scale that can be kept up over the months that follow the excitement, not only the first one.
Jupiter trine Pluto
about 1.2° at midday
In this trine, Nas's optimism and capacity for transformation feed each other, and the combination can give them the power to turn a big vision into lasting change. The growth it brings tends to be deep as well as broad, which is why the bigger changes usually stick.
Mercury square Saturn
about 2.1° at midday
Self-doubt can get into thinking when Mercury is square Saturn, in the form of over-editing or delaying a decision that was ready. Sharing the unfinished thought anyway, again and again, is what loosens the doubt's hold over what Nas is willing to say out loud.
Mercury conjunction Pluto
about 2.1° at midday
Nas'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.
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?
