Roy Keane’s birth chart
Born 10 August 1971, in Cork, Ireland. StarMap has no verified birth time yet.
Leo Sun · Moon in Pisces or Aries
Roy Keane’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Roy Keane was born in Cork, Ireland, on 10 August 1971, a Tuesday. The Sun was in Leo, so Leo is their zodiac sign. The Moon left Pisces for Aries at about 00:25 local time, which leaves the Moon sign open without a birth time. Roy turns 55 in 2026. StarMap has not verified a birth time yet, so the chart is cast for midday on that date and has no houses.
Of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, three are in fire signs, three in air, two in earth and one in water. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is one, four and four. The tightest aspect is Sun opposition Mars, about 0.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mars and Neptune were retrograde. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 14 other people born on 10 August, among them Antonio Banderas, Kylie Jenner and Javier Zanetti.

Roy Keane’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 17° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Roy Keane 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
Pisces or Aries
Pisces until about 00:25, then Aries (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 00:25: Moon in Pisces
With the Moon in Pisces, Roy 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.
Born after about 00:25: Moon in Aries
With the Moon in Aries, Roy 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 Cork, Ireland, at each hour of the day.
Roy Keane’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Roy 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 10 August 1971, computed for Cork, Ireland.

Roy Keane’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Roy Keane’s private life.
Purpose for Roy Keane 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.

Pisces until about 00:25, then Aries
needs and habits
Born before about 00:25: 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 Roy more than talking things out. It can be easy for them to miss how much of what they feel belongs to someone else.
Born after about 00:25: Moon in Aries
The Moon in Aries keeps day-to-day needs simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. For Roy, 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 Roy, 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 Roy, 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 Aquarius acts on principle, and its anger surfaces most over unfairness or hypocrisy rather than personal slights. Roy can detach from a conflict so thoroughly that the other person feels shut out. The issue tends to get argued with heat while the relationship itself is treated with strange calm.
Jupiter in Scorpio
27° Scorpio 01' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Scorpio grows by facing what is difficult rather than avoiding it, even when that is the harder road at the time. The overreach, for Roy, may be an intensity that turns a manageable situation into an all-consuming one. The resilience tends to be noticed only after the hard part is over.
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 Roy 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 Libra
10° Libra 39' at midday
freedom, generational
Roy holds Uranus in Libra in common with many people born in the same stretch of years. Together that generation reshapes ideas of partnership, fairness and how relationships are arranged. Its personal side is a readiness to question traditional roles more openly than earlier generations felt able to.
Neptune in Sagittarius
0° Sagittarius 18' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Roy in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Virgo
28° Virgo 00' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Virgo is shared by Roy and many people born in the same span of years. That generation lives through deep change in work, in how services are organised, and in daily life itself. In one person that can be intensity around control, order and how much any one system can carry.
Aspects in Roy Keane’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.
Sun opposition Mars
about 0.2° at midday
The Sun opposite Mars pits self-assertion against putting other people's wishes first, and for Roy Keane that can play out as a tug of war with partners or rivals. Learning to want things directly, without needing a fight to justify the wanting, settles more than it stirs up.
Jupiter sextile Pluto
about 1.0° at midday
Meaningful growth without constant upheaval is what Jupiter sextile Pluto describes, with Roy's sense of possibility and depth working in concert. The opportunities that matter tend to come at a manageable pace, not all at once in a way that would be hard to absorb.
Venus sextile Uranus
about 1.8° at midday
An independent streak and a warm heart get along in this sextile, which tends to give Roy's relationships room to breathe without cooling them. The freedom involved is easy and low on drama: enough to keep a relationship interesting, never so much that it feels unstable.
Jupiter conjunction Neptune
about 3.3° at midday
For Roy, growth is likely to be idealistic and compassionate, a matter of causes, beliefs or visions bigger than daily concerns. Jupiter conjunct Neptune supplies the inspiration and leaves them the job of checking a beautiful idea against what can be achieved.
Venus opposition Mars
about 4.5° at midday
Venus opposite Mars sets what Roy wants for themselves against what keeps a relationship harmonious, most of all around desire and assertiveness. Naming a want plainly, instead of swallowing it or forcing it, tends to serve both sides.
Sun conjunction Venus
about 4.8° at midday
Who Roy is and what they love are likely to be closely bound, so their identity has relationships and beauty at its centre rather than at its edge. People with the Sun conjunct Venus tend to give affection openly, and their sense of self can rise and fall a little with how appreciated they feel.
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.
