Philip Pullman’s birth chart

Philip Pullman's full reading

Each planet by sign. First-draft readings in the StarMap voice, reviewed by our consulting astrologer before launch.

1. ☉Sun in Libra

   ♎ 25° Libra 29'

   purpose and vitality

   Their vitality rises in good company, and purpose feels real when Philip is creating balance or beauty with other people. The tension is losing their own direction while managing everyone else's. It shows up as how much harder it is to decide things alone than with a second opinion in the room.

2. ☽Moon in Leo

   ♌ 20° Leo 09'

   needs and habits

   They need warmth and acknowledgement worked into their everyday life, not just on big occasions. A day with no one noticing they drain they faster than a hard day with an audience. It shows up as brightening visibly the moment someone compliments something small they did.

3. ☿Mercury in Scorpio

   ♏ 16° Scorpio 37'

   mind and voice

   They think in layers, looking for what is not being said as much as what is actually spoken aloud. Their communication is direct once they have decided to speak, and silent until then. The tension is suspecting a hidden motive where there is only an ordinary one.

4. ♀Venus in Sagittarius

   ♐ 1° Sagittarius 05'

   love and values

   They love with enthusiasm and a need for shared adventure, and they value a partner who gives they room to roam. The tension is confusing freedom with distance when things get serious. It shows up as planning their next trip together before they have settled into the one Philip is on.

5. ♂Mars in Scorpio

   ♏ 17° Scorpio 02'

   drive and anger

   They act with focus and intensity, and their anger, when it surfaces, is controlled, cutting and hard to forget. The tension is holding onto a grievance well past its useful life. It shows up as a calm exterior that gives little warning before a genuinely sharp response.

6. ♃Jupiter in Scorpio

   ♏ 5° Scorpio 05'

   growth and excess

   They grow through facing what is difficult rather than avoiding it, which tends to pay off later even when it costs something now. The overreach is an intensity that turns a manageable situation into an all-consuming one. It shows up as a resilience people notice only after they have already come through the hard part.

7. ♄Saturn in Leo

   ♌ 7° Leo 56'

   discipline and doubt

   They build discipline around genuine self-expression, often held back early by a fear of being laughed at or overlooked. The doubt shows up as downplaying their own achievements before anyone else can. It shows up as a hard-won, unshowy confidence that arrives once they stop waiting for permission to be seen.

8. ♅Uranus in Gemini

   ♊ 21° Gemini 36' ℞

   freedom, generational

   Shared by an entire generational span, this placement marks people who come of age alongside a communication revolution, fluent in tools older generations learned later in life. Personally, it can show up as a restless need for new information.

9. ♆Neptune in Libra

   ♎ 8° Libra 59'

   imagination, generational

   Shared by everyone born in this span, this placement marks a generation that idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by media images of love that outpace real relationships. Personally, it can show up as a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.

10. ♇Pluto in Leo

    ♌ 13° Leo 12'

    power, generational

    Shared by everyone born in this span of years, this placement marks a generation that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. Personally, it can show up as a charged relationship with authority and who gets to hold the spotlight.

Aspects

How the planets in Philip Pullman's chart talk to each other, tightest first.

1. Mercury conjunction Mars

   0.4° applying

   Their thinking and their drive to act are closely linked, so ideas turn into words and decisions almost immediately. This makes they quick and direct in conversation, and the edge is letting a thought settle before they say it out loud.

2. Saturn sextile Neptune

   1.1° applying

   Their discipline and their imagination cooperate gently, giving their ideas a workable, grounded shape without losing their spark. This is quiet, practical creativity that tends to produce something people can actually use, not just admire.

3. Moon sextile Uranus

   1.4° applying

   Their feelings and their independent streak get along, giving they room to be emotionally honest without feeling boxed in. This is an easy, breathable kind of emotional life that lets closeness and independence sit comfortably side by side.

4. Jupiter square Saturn

   2.9° applying

   Their enthusiasm for growth can meet real limits, whether practical, financial or self-imposed, and it can feel like their ambitions keep outrunning their resources. The lesson is treating the limit as a pace-setter rather than a wall.
