Robert Plant’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief

Robert Plant was born on Friday, 20 August 1948, in West Bromwich, England. Their zodiac sign is Leo. The Moon changed sign at about 01:25, from Aquarius to Pisces; which of the two is the Moon sign depends on the hour of birth. Robert turns 78 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Robert, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.

Fire carries the most weight: four of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, against air three, earth one and water one. Cardinal signs hold three, fixed signs three and mutable signs three. Three planets stand together in Leo: Sun, Saturn and Pluto. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Sun and Saturn: a conjunction, about 1.0° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Every planet was moving direct. Over the course of the day the Moon went from full to waning gibbous.

StarMap's dataset holds 17 other people born on 20 August, among them Demi Lovato, Andrew Garfield and Amy Adams.

Robert Plant’s Sun, Moon and rising sign

Sun sign

Leo

about 27° Leo at midday

A Leo Sun shines. For Robert Plant 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.

All Leo Suns

Moon sign

Aquarius or Pisces

Aquarius until about 01:25, then Pisces (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.

Born before about 01:25: Moon in Aquarius

An Aquarius Moon feels from a step back. Robert is likely to understand an emotion better than they inhabit it, and to need space and ideas to process. For this Moon, friends are family and freedom is security.

Born after about 01:25: Moon in Pisces

With the Moon in Pisces, Robert may well pick up the mood of a whole room. Music, water, sleep and imagination tend to restore them, and it matters whose moods they carry home. The empathy of this Moon is a gift that needs a door.

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 West Bromwich, England, at each hour of the day.

Robert Plant’s planets, sign by sign

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

  1. Sun in Leo

    27° Leo 18' at midday

    purpose and vitality

    Purpose for Robert Plant 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.

  2. Moon in Aquarius or Pisces

    Aquarius until about 01:25, then Pisces

    needs and habits

    Born before about 01:25: Moon in Aquarius

    An Aquarius Moon processes daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and Robert is likely to need a degree of independence built into any close relationship. The temptation is to analyse a feeling instead of simply having it. Even after a good day with people, this Moon needs time alone to recover.

    Born after about 01:25: Moon in Pisces

    The Moon in Pisces makes for a porous daily mood, one that picks up the emotional temperature of a room without choosing to. Quiet, music or time near water probably restores Robert more than talking things out. It can be easy for them to miss how much of what they feel belongs to someone else.

  3. Mercury in Virgo

    5° Virgo 51' at midday

    mind and voice

    For Robert, 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.

  4. Venus in Cancer

    12° Cancer 16' at midday

    love and values

    Venus in Cancer loves by nurturing, and for Robert that suggests valuing emotional safety over almost anything else in a relationship. Old hurts tend to linger here long after the person who caused them has changed. This is a Venus that feeds people, checks on people and quietly keeps score of who has shown up in return.

  5. Mars in Libra

    20° Libra 51' at midday

    drive and anger

    In Robert'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 Sagittarius

    19° Sagittarius 07' at midday

    growth and excess

    With Jupiter in Sagittarius, Robert 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.

  7. Saturn in Leo

    26° Leo 17' at midday

    discipline and doubt

    Saturn in Leo builds discipline around self-expression, and in Robert's chart this placement often starts with a fear of being laughed at or overlooked. The doubt tends to show as playing down achievements before anyone else can. The confidence this placement builds is hard-won and unshowy, and it tends to arrive once the waiting for permission stops.

  8. Uranus in Gemini

    29° Gemini 39' at midday

    freedom, generational

    Uranus in Gemini is shared by Robert and many people born in the same few years. These are people who come of age alongside a revolution in communication, fluent in tools older generations learned later in life. The personal version is a restless need for new information.

  9. Neptune in Libra

    11° Libra 07' at midday

    imagination, generational

    A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Robert among them. It idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by images of love on screen that outpace real relationships. The personal echo is a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.

  10. Pluto in Leo

    14° Leo 58' at midday

    power, generational

    Pluto in Leo is held by a whole generation, one that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. At a personal scale, for Robert, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.

Aspects in Robert Plant’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 conjunction Saturn

    about 1.0° at midday

    With the Sun conjunct Saturn, identity is built through discipline and steady effort, often with an early sense that a place has to be worked for rather than assumed. It tends to make Robert Plant reliable and serious, and the growth comes from believing that they have done enough to rest.

  2. Venus square Neptune

    about 1.1° at midday

    Under Venus square Neptune, affection can blur into an idealised picture of love, and disappointment follows when a real person or relationship falls short of the dream. Robert's task is to love what is there, which tends to prove more durable than loving the fantasy.

  3. Mars sextile Jupiter

    about 1.7° at midday

    There is confident, well-aimed energy in this sextile, and not much wasted effort, since Robert's drive and optimism pull together. Taking the initiative suits Robert, above all when they commit to one goal and do not scatter their energy across several.

  4. Sun sextile Uranus

    about 2.3° at midday

    There is room for Robert to be a little unconventional without losing much by it, since identity and originality get along well here. Other people tend to find this easy, unforced independence refreshing rather than alarming.

  5. Saturn sextile Uranus

    about 3.4° at midday

    Discipline and independence combine in this sextile to give Robert a workable way of keeping a routine while leaving room to change it. The flexibility is quiet and sustainable, and it keeps a good habit from calcifying into an unquestioned rule.

  6. Jupiter trine Pluto

    about 4.2° at midday

    In this trine, Robert's optimism and capacity for transformation feed each other, and the combination can give them the power to turn a big vision into lasting change. The growth it brings tends to be deep as well as broad, which is why the bigger changes usually stick.

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.
