16 January 1988 was a Saturday: the day Nicklas Bendtner was born in Copenhagen, Denmark. Their zodiac sign is Capricorn, with the Moon in Sagittarius. Nicklas turns 38 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for Nicklas; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Of the ten planets, five are in fire signs, two in earth, two in water and one in air. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is three, two and five. Moon, Mars, Saturn and Uranus all fall in Sagittarius. Closest of the aspects is the conjunction between Saturn and Uranus, about 1.3° from exact at midday.

Nicklas Bendtner’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Capricorn
about 25° Capricorn at midday
A Capricorn Sun endures. Ambition, patience and a dry sense of humour are what tend to carry Nicklas Bendtner up long slopes other people give up on. The placement learns, eventually, that rest is part of the climb.
Moon sign
Sagittarius
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Sagittarius Moon feels best in motion. Open roads, new ideas and honest laughter probably lift Nicklas, and being fenced in by other people's moods tends to weigh them down. This Moon needs room, and someone who thinks that is fine.
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 Copenhagen, Denmark, at each hour of the day.

Nicklas Bendtner’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Nicklas Bendtner’s private life.
With the Sun in Capricorn, Nicklas Bendtner is likely to find purpose in building a reputation and a structure that will outlast them, with a vitality that is steady rather than showy. The trap can be measuring their worth by output alone. They may well work through tiredness instead of naming it, until someone else has to point it out.
The Moon in Sagittarius needs room to move and a bit of novelty in its routine to feel right. A schedule with no give in it can make Nicklas edgy faster than most people expect. With this Moon, the next trip tends to be planned before the current one has finished.
In Nicklas's chart, Mercury in Aquarius describes thinking that is original and a step removed from convention, and communication that works best through ideas rather than small talk. The stubborn streak is holding a position out of principle after the evidence has moved on. In a group, this is the person who asks the question nobody else thought to ask.
Venus in Pisces loves without much guard, and Nicklas probably values emotional and even spiritual connection over anything practical. The temptation can be to idealise a partner before really seeing them. Generosity in relationships comes easily here, and so does missing the moment when giving starts to outweigh getting.
Mars in Sagittarius acts boldly and wants room to move while doing it, and its anger flares fast over anything that feels like a limit on freedom. Nicklas may speak bluntly in the heat of the moment and smooth it over later. Given the choice, this placement walks away from a fight rather than staying to work it out.
Jupiter in Aries
21° Aries 28' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Aries grows through bold, direct action and taking the first step before feeling fully ready. Nicklas's overreach, on this reading, is starting more than can realistically be finished. A burst of confidence tends to get a new venture off the ground, whether or not the groundwork is in place.
Saturn in Sagittarius builds discipline around belief and meaning, testing a big idea hard before committing to it. In front of people who might challenge a conviction, Nicklas is likely to hedge. Over time, someone with this Saturn often becomes a credible voice on the very questions they once felt they had no right to answer.
Uranus in Sagittarius
28° Sagittarius 33' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Nicklas 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 Capricorn
8° Capricorn 21' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Capricorn is shared by Nicklas and about fourteen years of births. The imagination of the generation questions or idealises authority and ambition, often shaped by wide disillusionment with institutions. The personal version may be an uneasy relationship with conventional success.
Pluto in Scorpio
12° Scorpio 19' at midday
power, generational
Pluto is at home in Scorpio, and the generation born with it lives through profound upheavals in power, secrecy and shared taboos. Nicklas's own share may be an unusually deep comfort with intensity that others would find overwhelming.
Aspects in Nicklas Bendtner’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 conjunction Uranus
about 1.3° at midday
With discipline and the need for independence fused, Nicklas Bendtner tends to build structure their own way instead of inheriting someone else's. Saturn conjunct Uranus makes them an original builder, and the challenge is letting a good structure stay flexible and not harden into another rule.
Mercury square Pluto
about 2.1° at midday
A simple disagreement can turn into something more charged when Mercury is square Pluto, as Nicklas looks for motives that may not be there. The lesson is trusting a straightforward answer when the evidence supports one, rather than assuming the deeper explanation is always the true one.
Venus sextile Uranus
about 2.4° at midday
An independent streak and a warm heart get along in this sextile, which tends to give Nicklas's relationships room to breathe without cooling them. The freedom involved is easy and low on drama: enough to keep a relationship interesting, never so much that it feels unstable.
Venus sextile Saturn
about 3.8° at midday
This sextile tends to lend a workable, grounded steadiness to Nicklas's relationships, since affection and a sense of structure get along. Once Nicklas decides a commitment is right, it usually comes naturally, without the drama that faster, less considered relationships sometimes carry.
Sun square Jupiter
about 4.0° at midday
Ambition can outpace what time and energy will realistically support, and with this aspect Nicklas may promise more than can be delivered and then walk it back. The lesson of a Sun-Jupiter square is scaling a good instinct to a size that holds.
Venus square Mars
about 4.2° at midday
Desire and the need for harmony can clash where Venus squares Mars, and Nicklas may be caught between wanting something and wanting to keep the peace. What the aspect asks for is a want voiced directly, before it leaks out sideways.
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?
