Nobuyuki Kojima’s birth chart
Born 17 January 1966, in Maebashi, Japan. StarMap has no verified birth time yet.
Capricorn Sun · Moon in Scorpio or Sagittarius
Nobuyuki Kojima’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
17 January 1966 was a Monday: the day Nobuyuki Kojima was born in Maebashi, Japan. Their zodiac sign is Capricorn. The Moon changed sign at about 00:40, from Scorpio to Sagittarius; which of the two is the Moon sign depends on the hour of birth. Nobuyuki turns 60 in 2026. StarMap has not verified a birth time yet, so the chart is cast for midday on that date and has no houses.
Of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, four are in earth signs, three in air and two in water; none is in fire. By modality the count is four mutable, three fixed and two cardinal. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mercury and Saturn: a sextile, about 0.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Venus, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto were retrograde. The Moon was a waning crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 26 other people born on 17 January, among them Muhammad Ali, Jim Carrey and Betty White.

Nobuyuki Kojima’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Capricorn
about 26° Capricorn at midday
A Capricorn Sun endures. Ambition, patience and a dry sense of humour are what tend to carry Nobuyuki Kojima up long slopes other people give up on. The placement learns, eventually, that rest is part of the climb.
Moon sign
Scorpio or Sagittarius
Scorpio until about 00:40, then Sagittarius (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 00:40: Moon in Scorpio
The Moon in Scorpio feels everything and shows little. For Nobuyuki 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.
Born after about 00:40: Moon in Sagittarius
A Sagittarius Moon feels best in motion. Open roads, new ideas and honest laughter probably lift Nobuyuki, 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 Maebashi, Japan, at each hour of the day.
Nobuyuki Kojima’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Nobuyuki 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 17 January 1966, computed for Maebashi, Japan.

Nobuyuki Kojima’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Nobuyuki Kojima’s private life.
With the Sun in Capricorn, Nobuyuki Kojima 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.
Moon in Scorpio or Sagittarius
Scorpio until about 00:40, then Sagittarius
needs and habits
Born before about 00:40: Moon in Scorpio
For Nobuyuki, 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.
Born after about 00:40: Moon in Sagittarius
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 Nobuyuki edgy faster than most people expect. With this Moon, the next trip tends to be planned before the current one has finished.
Mercury in Capricorn thinks methodically, and Nobuyuki tends to communicate in a measured, practical way that people trust. The focus on a useful conclusion can be so strong that ideas which have not yet proven their worth are dismissed. Nobuyuki will often get straight to the point in a conversation other people expected to be casual.
Venus in Aquarius loves as a friend first, and values independence, shared ideas and a partner who allows plenty of room. Nobuyuki 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.
Mars in Aquarius acts on principle, and its anger surfaces most over unfairness or hypocrisy rather than personal slights. Nobuyuki can detach from a conflict so thoroughly that the other person feels shut out. The issue tends to get argued with heat while the relationship itself is treated with strange calm.
Jupiter in Gemini
22° Gemini 38' at midday ℞
growth and excess
Jupiter in Gemini grows through learning and exposure to as many ideas as can be gathered, and its optimism is contagious in conversation. Nobuyuki may overreach by knowing a little about everything and claiming more certainty than the depth supports. This is someone who can be the best-read person in the room on subjects they have never studied closely.
Saturn in Pisces builds discipline around boundaries, and it usually starts from a habit of carrying feelings that belong to other people. For Nobuyuki, the doubt is likely to take the form of guilt for protecting their own time and energy. What this Saturn works towards is a quiet, mature compassion, once it is clear that a boundary and a closed heart are not the same thing.
Uranus in Virgo
19° Virgo 23' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus takes about seven years to cross a sign, so in Nobuyuki's chart Uranus in Virgo describes an age group as much as a single person. It is a generation that changes how work and daily routine are done, through new methods and new technology. In one person it can be an instinct to question inherited routines.
Neptune in Scorpio
21° Scorpio 48' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Scorpio marks a long season that Nobuyuki shares with many people of a similar age. Its imagination is drawn to the hidden, the taboo and the transformative, with a wider cultural fascination for secrets and endings. In an individual that can be a pull towards mystery for its own sake.
Pluto in Virgo
18° Virgo 16' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Virgo is shared by Nobuyuki and many people born in the same span of years. That generation lives through deep change in work, in how services are organised, and in daily life itself. In one person that can be intensity around control, order and how much any one system can carry.
Aspects in Nobuyuki Kojima’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 Saturn
about 0.2° at midday
Turning a loose idea into something solid is easier with Mercury sextile Saturn, because Nobuyuki Kojima's thinking and sense of structure work together. The clarity is quiet and practical, and it shows most when a plan has to work.
Mars square Neptune
about 2.2° at midday
Under this square, drive can dissolve into confusion or self-doubt just when clarity matters most, especially around goals that involve other people's expectations. It helps Nobuyuki to separate the plan itself from the feeling of overwhelm that surrounds it.
Mars trine Jupiter
about 3.0° at midday
Mars trine Jupiter lets drive and a sense of possibility work as one, and in Nobuyuki's chart the pattern favours confident, well-timed action towards the goals that matter to them. A first move under this trine tends to open a door, largely because it is made with conviction and at a sensible moment.
Jupiter square Uranus
about 3.3° at midday
An appetite for growth can turn erratic under Jupiter square Uranus, with sudden changes of direction that leave earlier plans unfinished. The instinct for change this square gives Nobuyuki is a good one, and it does most when channelled into fewer, more deliberate moves that get to see the finish line.
Mercury trine Pluto
about 4.2° at midday
Nobuyuki's thinking and depth support each other, which gives them a natural ability to work through complex or hidden material without getting overwhelmed. With Mercury trine Pluto, research and difficult conversations both come easily, and Nobuyuki can stay with a hard subject long after others have looked away.
Jupiter square Pluto
about 4.4° at midday
Ambition can turn into a struggle for control under this square, over outcomes that were never fully Nobuyuki's to control. The considerable drive involved is better aimed at transformation than at domination, which tends to produce a result that lasts.
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.
