Raoul Wallenberg’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Raoul Wallenberg was born in Lidingö, Sweden, on 4 August 1912, a Sunday. The Sun was in Leo that day, the sign usually meant by a zodiac sign, with the Moon in Aries. StarMap has not verified a birth time yet, so the chart is cast for midday on that date and has no houses.
By element the count is four fire, three air, two earth and one water. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is two, three and five. Closest of the aspects is the square between Mercury and Jupiter, about 0.3° from exact at midday. 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 waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 14 other people born on 4 August, among them Louis Armstrong, Pumpuang Duangjan and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.

Raoul Wallenberg’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 11° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Raoul Wallenberg that suggests warmth, generosity and a need to be seen for who they really are, running through much of what they do. This placement grows by learning that the light is not diminished when it is shared.
Moon sign
Aries
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
With the Moon in Aries, Raoul 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 Lidingö, Sweden, at each hour of the day.
Raoul Wallenberg’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Raoul 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 4 August 1912, computed for Lidingö, Sweden.

Raoul Wallenberg’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Raoul Wallenberg’s private life.
Purpose for Raoul Wallenberg is probably tied to creating and being seen doing it, and a Leo Sun's vitality rises the moment there is an audience, even an audience of one. The tension is losing steam when no one is watching. The giveaway is often the extra effort that goes into something the moment someone notices them making it.
The Moon in Aries keeps day-to-day needs simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. For Raoul, 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.
For Raoul, Mercury in Virgo points to thinking that is precise and attentive to detail, and to clear communication, because the facts have usually been checked first. The catch is fixating on a small error and losing sight of the larger point. This is the placement that edits a message three times before sending something everyone else would have sent in one go.
Venus in Leo loves generously and openly, and values being someone's clear favourite above almost anything else on offer. For Raoul, the tension this suggests is needing steady reassurance of still being adored. Their gestures tend to be grand and thoughtful, and it can sting when those go unnoticed.
Mars in Virgo acts carefully and precisely, preferring to get a task right over getting it done fast, and its anger usually comes from things being done sloppily. When upset, Raoul is more likely to criticise than to confront. A clipped tone often signals frustration well before anything is said directly.
Jupiter in Sagittarius
5° Sagittarius 33' at midday
growth and excess
With Jupiter in Sagittarius, Raoul is likely to grow through travel, study and direct experience of things bigger than ordinary life. The excess may be promising more than circumstances can deliver, out of optimism rather than dishonesty. This Jupiter carries a conviction that things will work out, and other people borrow it when theirs runs low.
Saturn in Gemini builds discipline around clear expression, and it often begins with doubt about whether an idea is good enough to say out loud. For Raoul that would mean overpreparing before speaking or writing anything. Once the self-consciousness eases, the result can be someone unusually precise and credible with words.
Uranus in Aquarius
1° Aquarius 03' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus is at home in Aquarius, and many people born in the years around Raoul's birth have it too. The generation is defined by rapid technological and social change within a single lifetime. One person's share of it is an unusually easy relationship with disruption and reinvention.
Neptune in Cancer
24° Cancer 12' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Cancer is shared by Raoul 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
29° Gemini 30' at midday
power, generational
Raoul 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 Raoul Wallenberg’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 square Jupiter
about 0.3° at midday
Thinking can run ahead of the evidence when Mercury is square Jupiter, leading to overconfident claims or promises made faster than Raoul Wallenberg can check them. Matching enthusiasm to what has been verified makes their confidence more durable, not less.
Saturn trine Uranus
about 1.5° at midday
This trine lets Raoul build lasting structures that still leave room for change, because discipline and independence are allies here. Consistency and originality coexist with ease, and neither of them has to be given up to make room for the other.
Jupiter opposition Saturn
about 3.0° at midday
Raoul is likely to feel two instincts at once: to expand into new opportunities, and to consolidate what is already in hand. Neither is wrong, and with Jupiter opposite Saturn a deliberate alternation between them tends to work better than treating it as a permanent choice.
Mercury square Saturn
about 3.4° 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 Raoul is willing to say out loud.
Jupiter sextile Uranus
about 4.5° at midday
This sextile puts possibility and originality on easy terms, so Raoul can take up a fresh opportunity without much disruption. Think of it as innovation at low cost, the kind that improves something without first tearing it down.
Mercury conjunction Mars
about 5.5° at midday
With Mercury conjunct Mars, thinking and the drive to act are closely linked, so ideas turn into words and decisions almost immediately. It makes Raoul quick and direct in conversation, and the discipline is letting a thought settle before saying it out loud.
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?
