Capricorn Sun · Moon in Pisces or Aries
Rush Limbaugh’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Rush Limbaugh was born in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, on 12 January 1951, a Friday. That made Rush a Capricorn. The Moon left Pisces for Aries at about 20:05 local time, which leaves the Moon sign open without a birth time. Rush died on 17 February 2021, aged 70. 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 air, two earth, two water and one fire, leaving out the Moon, whose sign depends on the birth time. By modality the count is five cardinal, three fixed and one mutable. The tightest aspect is Jupiter trine Uranus, about 0.1° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Saturn, Uranus and Pluto were retrograde. Mercury changed direction that day, turning direct, so whether it was retrograde at the birth depends on the hour. The Moon was a waxing crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 26 other people born on 12 January, among them Jeff Bezos, Hande Yener and Nikolai Noskov. Kirstie Alley was born on the very same day.

Rush Limbaugh’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Capricorn
about 21° Capricorn at midday
A Capricorn Sun endures. Ambition, patience and a dry sense of humour are what tend to carry Rush Limbaugh up long slopes other people give up on. The placement learns, eventually, that rest is part of the climb.
Moon sign
Pisces or Aries
Pisces until about 20:05, then Aries (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 20:05: Moon in Pisces
With the Moon in Pisces, Rush 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 20:05: Moon in Aries
With the Moon in Aries, Rush 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 Cape Girardeau, Missouri, at each hour of the day.

Rush Limbaugh’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Rush Limbaugh’s private life.
With the Sun in Capricorn, Rush Limbaugh is likely to find purpose in building a reputation and a structure that will outlast them, with a vitality that is steady rather than showy. The trap can be measuring their worth by output alone. They may well work through tiredness instead of naming it, until someone else has to point it out.

Pisces until about 20:05, then Aries
needs and habits
Born before about 20:05: 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 Rush 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 20:05: 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 Rush, 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.
Mercury in Capricorn thinks methodically, and Rush tends to communicate in a measured, practical way that people trust. The focus on a useful conclusion can be so strong that ideas which have not yet proven their worth are dismissed. Rush will often get straight to the point in a conversation other people expected to be casual.
Venus in Aquarius loves as a friend first, and values independence, shared ideas and a partner who allows plenty of room. Rush may keep just enough distance that closeness feels slightly out of reach, even to them. This Venus can prize a partner's individuality more than the intimacy between them.
Mars in Aquarius acts on principle, and its anger surfaces most over unfairness or hypocrisy rather than personal slights. Rush 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 Pisces
6° Pisces 59' at midday
growth and excess
For Rush, 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.
For Rush, Saturn in Libra means discipline built around relationships, and fairness and commitment are trusted slowly. The doubt is overthinking whether a partnership is truly equal. With time, people with this Saturn tend to become the ones others rely on to negotiate and to keep things fair.
Uranus in Cancer
6° Cancer 51' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Cancer belongs to an age group rather than to Rush alone. Its mark is a generation that redefines home and family, departing from the structures the previous generation grew up inside. At the personal level it is read as a pull to build family life differently.
Neptune in Libra
19° Libra 30' at midday
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Rush 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.
Pluto in Leo
19° Leo 16' 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 Rush, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Rush Limbaugh’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.
Jupiter trine Uranus
about 0.1° at midday
Jupiter trine Uranus gives Rush Limbaugh a knack for spotting unconventional opportunities before other people do, which is what a sense of possibility and originality produce together. Growth arrives through new directions, ones a more cautious approach would probably have missed.
Mercury square Saturn
about 0.4° 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 Rush is willing to say out loud.
Sun square Neptune
about 2.2° at midday
A Sun-Neptune square can blur Rush's sense of who they are under the pull of an ideal, a cause or someone else's story, until it is unclear where they end and the dream begins. The task is staying inspired without losing their own outline.
Mars trine Neptune
about 2.8° at midday
An inspired, almost effortless way of pursuing creative or compassionate goals belongs to Mars trine Neptune, which puts Rush'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.
Mars opposition Pluto
about 3.0° at midday
Mars opposite Pluto can draw Rush away from simply asserting their will and into power struggles with people who seem to be testing them. Staying focused on the goal, and not on winning the confrontation, resolves more of what is at stake.
Venus trine Saturn
about 3.7° at midday
A steady, dependable way of loving, one that people trust, is what this trine gives Rush, since affection and commitment hold each other up. Relationships built on it tend to last, often well past the point where less committed people would have moved on.
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?
