Rosario Dawson’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Rosario Dawson was born on Wednesday, 9 May 1979, in New York City, New York. The Sun was in Taurus, so Taurus is their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Libra. Rosario turns 47 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for Rosario; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Fire carries the most weight: five of the ten planets, against earth two, air two and water one. By modality the count is five cardinal, three fixed and two mutable. Aries holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Mercury, Venus and Mars. Closest of the aspects is the trine between Venus and Neptune, exact to a tenth of a degree. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Three planets were retrograde all day: Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Saturn changed direction that day, turning direct, so whether it was retrograde at the birth depends on the hour. The Moon was waxing gibbous, between first quarter and full.
StarMap's dataset holds 13 other people born on 9 May, among them Glenda Jackson, Billy Joel and Albert Finney.

Rosario Dawson’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Taurus
about 18° Taurus at midday
A Taurus Sun builds. Comfort, steadiness and things that last probably matter more to Rosario Dawson 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
Libra
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
A Libra Moon feels through relationship. Harmony nearby tends to settle Rosario, and conflict, even other people's, can unsettle them. What restores this Moon is beauty, fairness, and one person who truly listens.
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 New York City, New York, at each hour of the day.

Rosario Dawson’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Rosario Dawson’s private life.
A Taurus Sun finds purpose in building something that lasts, and Rosario Dawson'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.
A Libra Moon needs harmony in the immediate surroundings to feel settled day to day, and a tense conversation nearby can throw off Rosario's whole afternoon. Comfort comes from pleasant company and pleasant spaces. The habit to watch is smoothing things over before they have worked out what they want.
Mercury in Aries suggests that Rosario 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 Aries loves with immediacy and pursues what it wants without much hesitation, and it values a partner who can keep up. For Rosario that suggests an interest that can fade once the chase is over. The pattern is to fall fast and to need a relationship to keep feeling like a choice, not a routine.
For Rosario, Mars in Aries points to acting immediately and decisively, with anger that tends to flare fast, hot and honest before it clears. The downside is acting before a situation has been thought all the way through. The argument or the project tends to start the second the impulse arrives, with little patience for waiting.
Jupiter in Leo
1° Leo 57' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Leo grows through creative confidence and a willingness to take up space. For Rosario 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.
Competence is what Saturn in Virgo builds discipline around, often driven by a fear of not yet having done enough to deserve rest. Rosario may feel like a fraud even when the track record says otherwise. The usual result is someone quietly excellent at something long before they will admit it out loud.
Uranus in Scorpio
19° Scorpio 00' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Much of Rosario's age group has Uranus in Scorpio. It changes attitudes to power, secrecy and what is held in common, often while living through upheavals in institutions once considered permanent. In an individual it tends to be a low tolerance for hidden agendas.
Neptune in Sagittarius
19° Sagittarius 55' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Rosario in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
17° Libra 01' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Rosario belongs to, because Pluto moves so slowly. That generation transforms ideas of partnership, fairness and what people owe one another. Personally it can be an intense need for relationships to be fundamentally fair.
Aspects in Rosario Dawson’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 trine Neptune
about 0.0° at midday
Rosario Dawson is likely to love with a romantic, artistic quality that comes naturally, because affection and imagination flow together under this trine. Compassion and creativity arrive easily, and the people nearby tend to feel cared for as a result.
Sun opposition Uranus
about 0.6° at midday
With the Sun opposite Uranus, Rosario's loyalty to their own path tends to bring them into collision with people or situations that expect conformity. Learning to be themselves without needing the collision gives them a quieter, more durable kind of independence.
Mercury conjunction Mars
about 2.8° 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 Rosario quick and direct in conversation, and the discipline is letting a thought settle before saying it out loud.
Venus opposition Pluto
about 2.9° at midday
A wish for deep intimacy meets a fear of losing oneself, or losing control, inside it: that is the pattern of Venus opposite Pluto. For Rosario, choosing vulnerability a little at a time, instead of guarding against it, tends to build the very depth being sought.
Mercury square Jupiter
about 4.1° at midday
Thinking can run ahead of the evidence when Mercury is square Jupiter, leading to overconfident claims or promises made faster than Rosario can check them. Matching enthusiasm to what has been verified makes their confidence more durable, not less.
Mars trine Neptune
about 5.2° at midday
An inspired, almost effortless way of pursuing creative or compassionate goals belongs to Mars trine Neptune, which puts Rosario's drive and imagination in step. Energy and vision arrive together, so starting a meaningful project is likely to feel far less daunting than it looks from outside.
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?
