Raymond Queneau’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief

21 February 1903 was a Saturday: the day Raymond Queneau was born in Le Havre, France. That made Raymond a Pisces. The Moon was in Sagittarius until about 19:54 and in Capricorn afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Raymond died on 25 October 1976, aged 73. No verified birth time is on file for Raymond; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.

Of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, four are in air signs, four in water and one in fire; none is in earth. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is two, two and five. Sun, Venus and Jupiter all fall in Pisces. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Sun and Neptune: a trine, about 0.7° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mars, Neptune and Pluto were retrograde. The Moon was a waning crescent.

StarMap's dataset holds 23 other people born on 21 February, among them Corbin Bleu, W. H. Auden and Alan Rickman. Anaïs Nin was born on the very same day.

Raymond Queneau’s Sun, Moon and rising sign

Sun sign

Pisces

about 1° Pisces at midday

A Pisces Sun feels it all. Imagination, empathy and a porous sense of where the self ends and others begin tend to make Raymond Queneau the kind of person people confide in. This placement needs boundaries as much as it needs the sea.

All Pisces Suns

Moon sign

Sagittarius or Capricorn

Sagittarius until about 19:54, then Capricorn (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.

Born before about 19:54: Moon in Sagittarius

A Sagittarius Moon feels best in motion. Open roads, new ideas and honest laughter probably lift Raymond, 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.

Born after about 19:54: Moon in Capricorn

A Capricorn Moon feels responsibly. With it, Raymond may hold themselves together for other people, and can be hard on themselves when they cannot. This Moon tends to be restored by accomplishment, by structure, and by the rare person allowed to see them tired.

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 Le Havre, France, at each hour of the day.

Raymond Queneau’s rising sign, by birth time

StarMap has not verified a birth time for Raymond 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 21 February 1903, computed for Le Havre, France.

Raymond Queneau’s planets, sign by sign

Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Raymond Queneau’s private life.

  1. Sun in Pisces

    1° Pisces 41' at midday

    purpose and vitality

    The Sun in Pisces finds purpose in imagination, compassion and things that cannot quite be measured, and Raymond Queneau's vitality tends to ebb and flow with their surroundings. The thing to watch is losing their own direction inside someone else's story. There may be days when they feel unstoppable, and others when they need to disappear for a while.

  2. Moon in Sagittarius or Capricorn

    Sagittarius until about 19:54, then Capricorn

    needs and habits

    Born before about 19:54: 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 Raymond edgy faster than most people expect. With this Moon, the next trip tends to be planned before the current one has finished.

    Born after about 19:54: Moon in Capricorn

    With the Moon in Capricorn, Raymond's comfort probably comes from accomplishing something concrete each day, and an unproductive day can leave them oddly unsettled even on holiday. Harder feelings tend to be kept for when they are alone. Before rest is allowed there is usually one more thing to tidy, organise or finish.

  3. Mercury in Aquarius

    5° Aquarius 48' at midday

    mind and voice

    In Raymond'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.

  4. Venus in Pisces

    21° Pisces 46' at midday

    love and values

    Venus in Pisces loves without much guard, and Raymond 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.

  5. Mars in Libra

    16° Libra 14' at midday ℞

    drive and anger

    In Raymond's chart, Mars in Libra acts diplomatically and prefers negotiation to confrontation, and its anger tends to stay buried until it is too big to ignore. Avoided consistently, conflict leaves resentment building underneath the calm surface. The pattern is saying yes to something that rankled, then feeling it later.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces

    0° Pisces 16' at midday

    growth and excess

    For Raymond, Jupiter in Pisces means finding growth in compassion, imagination and a willingness to trust things that cannot be fully explained. The overreach is an idealism about people or situations that the facts do not quite support. Others lean on this generosity of spirit more than they let on.

  7. Saturn in Aquarius

    3° Aquarius 46' at midday

    discipline and doubt

    With Saturn in Aquarius, Raymond's discipline probably gathers around belonging to a group on their own terms; it is the placement of the one-time outsider. The doubt means holding back the stranger ideas until there is no risk of mockery. The outsider often ends up as a trusted voice in exactly the kind of community that once seemed unlikely to accept them.

  8. Uranus in Sagittarius

    25° Sagittarius 00' at midday

    freedom, generational

    Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Raymond 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.

  9. Neptune in Cancer

    1° Cancer 00' at midday ℞

    imagination, generational

    Neptune in Cancer is shared by Raymond 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.

  10. Pluto in Gemini

    17° Gemini 41' at midday ℞

    power, generational

    Raymond 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 Raymond Queneau’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.

  1. Sun trine Neptune

    about 0.7° at midday

    Raymond Queneau's identity and imagination flow together easily, giving them an intuitive, artistic quality that feels natural rather than performed. With the Sun trine Neptune, compassion comes without much effort, and other people often sense it before a word has been said.

  2. Jupiter trine Neptune

    about 0.7° at midday

    Optimism and imagination tend to flow together for Raymond, and what comes of it is an inspired, generous vision of what is possible. Hope and creativity tend to serve them well under this trine, especially when both are allowed to guide a project and neither is second-guessed.

  3. Sun conjunction Jupiter

    about 1.4° at midday

    Raymond's identity carries a natural optimism and a generous sense of scale, so they tend to think bigger than the room requires. Confidence comes easily with the Sun conjunct Jupiter, and the discipline worth building is matching that optimism with follow-through.

  4. Mars trine Pluto

    about 1.5° at midday

    Resilience under pressure, and the ability to come back stronger from a setback, are the marks of this trine between drive and the capacity for change. In Raymond's chart the aspect points to a quiet, formidable strength, the kind other people notice mainly in how little it seems to cost.

  5. Mercury conjunction Saturn

    about 2.0° at midday

    With Mercury conjunct Saturn, Raymond's thinking is likely to be careful and structured, and they tend to say only what they are sure of. That makes their word worth taking, and the risk is that caution keeps an idea back until it feels perfectly finished.

  6. Venus square Uranus

    about 3.2° at midday

    In Raymond's chart the desire for closeness and the need for freedom can work against each other, and this square is known for sudden shifts in an otherwise good relationship. The remedy is to build enough independence into the relationship that none has to be created by pulling away.

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.

  • Uranus opposition Neptuneabout 6.0°
  • Uranus opposition Plutoabout 7.3°
