Oskar Schindler’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Oskar Schindler was born in Svitavy, Czech Republic, on 28 April 1908, a Tuesday. That made Oskar a Taurus, with the Moon in Aries. Oskar died on 9 October 1974, aged 66. No verified birth time is on file for Oskar; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
By element the count is four fire, three air, two earth and one water. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is five, two and three. Aries holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Moon, Mercury and Saturn. Gemini holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Venus, Mars and Pluto. The tightest aspect is Venus conjunction 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. One planet was retrograde: Uranus. The Moon was a waning crescent.

Oskar Schindler’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Taurus
about 7° Taurus at midday
A Taurus Sun builds. Comfort, steadiness and things that last probably matter more to Oskar Schindler than novelty, and people tend to trust someone who does not change their mind for show. The growth edge is letting go before something stops working.
Moon sign
Aries
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
With the Moon in Aries, Oskar 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 Svitavy, Czech Republic, at each hour of the day.

Oskar Schindler’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Oskar Schindler’s private life.
A Taurus Sun finds purpose in building something that lasts, and Oskar Schindler's vitality probably runs slow and steady rather than in bursts. The drawback is a reluctance to change course even when the plan is clearly not working. People with this Sun can stay in one job or one home long after part of them knows it is time to move.
The Moon in Aries keeps day-to-day needs simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. For Oskar, 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 Aries suggests that Oskar thinks in quick, decisive strokes and says what they mean without much preamble. Sometimes the words arrive before the thought is fully formed, which can come across sharper than intended. It is a mind that finishes other people's sentences and prefers a fast decision to a long meeting.
Venus in Gemini loves through conversation, wit and mental connection, and tends to find a dull partner harder to stay with than a challenging one. Oskar probably values variety and being kept interested. Attention may wander with this Venus, and that can be treated as more serious than it is. Banter is the natural way to flirt here, more than anything more direct.
With Mars in Gemini, Oskar is likely to act through words, argument and quick manoeuvring rather than force, and anger to come out sharp and verbal. Arguments can be won without the conflict underneath ever being resolved. A disagreement can still be under debate long after the other person just wants it to end.
Jupiter in Leo
4° Leo 50' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Leo grows through creative confidence and a willingness to take up space. For Oskar the overreach may be overselling their own contribution or expecting more credit than a situation calls for. There is a natural showmanship here that lifts a room, and occasionally a story that grows a little in the retelling.
Saturn in Aries builds discipline around learning to act with patience instead of pure impulse. For Oskar, that suggests a doubt that takes the form of second-guessing: too fast, or not fast enough? Confidence in their own initiative tends to come slowly, once the rush goes out of every decision.
Uranus in Capricorn
16° Capricorn 53' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Many people within a few years of Oskar's age share Uranus in Capricorn, the mark of a generation that dismantles and rebuilds old institutions and structures of authority. Personally, that can mean scepticism towards any system that asks for trust without having shown why it deserves it.
Neptune in Cancer
12° Cancer 25' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Cancer is shared by Oskar and many people born in the same decade or so. The generation idealises home and family, often carrying a wider nostalgia for a version of belonging that may never quite have existed. Personally it can be a soft-focus longing for a childhood home.
Pluto in Gemini
23° Gemini 14' at midday
power, generational
Oskar 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 Oskar Schindler’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 conjunction Pluto
about 0.0° at midday
Love tends to run deep and complete under Venus conjunct Pluto, and Oskar Schindler is likely to lean towards intensity over casual affection. Relationships gain depth from it. What takes practice is trusting a connection without needing to test it to prove it is real.
Jupiter trine Saturn
about 0.0° at midday
Optimism and discipline reinforce each other in this trine, which lets Oskar pursue big goals with steady follow-through. Growth of this kind tends to be gradual and durable, not sudden and fragile, the sort of progress that survives a difficult year.
Sun square Jupiter
about 2.9° at midday
Ambition can outpace what time and energy will realistically support, and with this aspect Oskar 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.
Mercury sextile Venus
about 4.1° at midday
Thinking and affection are easy companions in Oskar'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.
Sun sextile Neptune
about 4.7° at midday
Creativity and empathy are there when Oskar makes room for them, because identity and imagination work gently together in this aspect. The sensitivity is soft, and people notice it without it having to be announced.
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?
