Sam Elliott’s birth chart

Leo Sun · Aries Moon · Fire · Fixed

Sun

Leo

17° Leo 01'

You shine. Warmth, generosity and a need to be seen for who you really are run through everything you do. A Leo Sun grows by learning that the light is not diminished when it is shared.

Moon

Aries

29° Aries 48'

You feel fast and forgive fast. Anger comes up quickly and passes just as quickly, and you need physical outlets for feeling. You are soothed by action, not by talking it over.

Cast for noon; the Moon may be up to 6° off without a birth time.

Sam Elliott's full reading

Each planet by sign. First-draft readings in the StarMap voice, reviewed by our consulting astrologer before launch.

  1. Sun in Leo

    17° Leo 01'

    purpose and vitality

    Purpose for they i tied to creating and being genuinely seen doing it, and their vitality rises the moment they have an audience, even an audience of one. The tension is losing steam when no one is watching. It shows up as the extra effort they put into something the moment someone notices they making it.

  2. Moon in Aries

    29° Aries 48'

    needs and habits

    Their day to day needs are simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. Comfort comes from action rather than discussion. It shows up as pacing the room or going for a walk instead of sitting with a feeling until it passes on its own.

  3. Mercury in Virgo

    14° Virgo 23'

    mind and voice

    Their thinking is precise and detail oriented, and they communicate clearly because they have usually checked their facts first. The tension is fixating on a small error and losing sight of the larger point. It shows up as editing a message three times before sending something everyone else would have sent in one go.

  4. Venus in Leo

    29° Leo 03'

    love and values

    They love generously and openly, and they value being someone's clear favourite above almost anything else they could offer they. The tension is needing steady reassurance that Sam is still adored. It shows up as grand, thoughtful gestures and a genuine hurt when they go unnoticed.

  5. Mars in Virgo

    17° Virgo 46'

    drive and anger

    They act carefully and precisely, preferring to get a task right over getting it done fast, and their anger usually comes from things being done sloppily. The tension is criticising instead of confronting when Sam is actually upset. It shows up as a clipped tone that signals frustration well before they say anything directly.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo

    3° Virgo 04'

    growth and excess

    They grow through mastering a craft in genuine, unglamorous detail, one small correction at a time. The overreach is perfectionism that turns growth into an endless list of corrections. It shows up as being trusted with more responsibility than they think they have earned, largely because they actually have.

  7. Saturn in Cancer

    6° Cancer 13'

    discipline and doubt

    They build discipline around emotional security, often shaped by an early home life that asked they to be steadier than a child should have to be. The doubt shows up as difficulty asking for care even when they clearly need it. It shows up as becoming, over time, the dependable emotional anchor for people who never quite return the favour.

  8. Uranus in Gemini

    12° Gemini 28'

    freedom, generational

    Shared by an entire generational span, this placement marks people who come of age alongside a communication revolution, fluent in tools older generations learned later in life. Personally, it can show up as a restless need for new information.

  9. Neptune in Libra

    2° Libra 20'

    imagination, generational

    Shared by everyone born in this span, this placement marks a generation that idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by media images of love that outpace real relationships. Personally, it can show up as a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.

  10. Pluto in Leo

    8° Leo 36'

    power, generational

    Shared by everyone born in this span of years, this placement marks a generation that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. Personally, it can show up as a charged relationship with authority and who gets to hold the spotlight.

Aspects

How the planets in Sam Elliott's chart talk to each other, tightest first.

  1. Moon trine Venus

    0.7° separating

    Their feelings and their affections move together with real ease, giving they a warm, generous emotional life. People feel cared for around they without they having to try very hard, which is part of why people keep coming back.

  2. Mercury square Uranus

    1.9° separating

    Their thinking can jump so quickly that other people struggle to follow, or they dismis a slower approach that actually had merit. The lesson is pacing a genuinely good idea so it can actually be used.

  3. Jupiter sextile Saturn

    3.1° applying

    Their sense of possibility and their sense of structure cooperate, giving they a workable, grounded kind of optimism. Plans they make tend to actually hold together, even under the kind of pressure that scatters looser ones.

  4. Moon trine Jupiter

    3.3° applying

    Their feelings and their optimism reinforce each other, giving they a naturally buoyant emotional life that recovers well from setbacks. People find real comfort in their presence, even on days when they have not said very much at all.
