Shigeo Sugimoto’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Shigeo Sugimoto was born on Saturday, 4 December 1926, in Kobe, Japan. Their zodiac sign was Sagittarius. The Moon left Scorpio for Sagittarius at about 16:30 local time, which leaves the Moon sign open without a birth time. Shigeo died on 2 April 2002, aged 75. StarMap has no verified birth time for Shigeo, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
By element the count is four fire, three water, one earth and one air, leaving out the Moon, whose sign depends on the birth time. By modality the count is four fixed, four mutable and one cardinal. Three planets stand together in Sagittarius: Sun, Venus and Saturn. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mercury and Uranus: a trine, about 0.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mercury, Mars, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto were retrograde. Over the course of the day the Moon went from waning crescent to new.
StarMap's dataset holds ten other people born on 4 December, among them Jay-Z, Jeff Bridges and Tyra Banks.

Shigeo Sugimoto’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Sagittarius
about 11° Sagittarius at midday
A Sagittarius Sun seeks. Meaning, distance and the bigger picture are likely to pull Shigeo Sugimoto forward, and the honesty of this placement is a kind of generosity. Its lesson is that the journey also needs somewhere to land.
Moon sign
Scorpio or Sagittarius
Scorpio until about 16:30, then Sagittarius (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 16:30: Moon in Scorpio
The Moon in Scorpio feels everything and shows little. For Shigeo that suggests trust that is slow, private and absolute; betrayal, once it happens, is not forgotten. This Moon is restored by intimacy without performance and by time alone to let things move.
Born after about 16:30: Moon in Sagittarius
A Sagittarius Moon feels best in motion. Open roads, new ideas and honest laughter probably lift Shigeo, and being fenced in by other people's moods tends to weigh them down. This Moon needs room, and someone who thinks that is fine.
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 Kobe, Japan, at each hour of the day.
Shigeo Sugimoto’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Shigeo 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 4 December 1926, computed for Kobe, Japan.

Shigeo Sugimoto’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Shigeo Sugimoto’s private life.
Growth, travel and ideas bigger than daily life are where Shigeo Sugimoto's Sagittarius Sun finds purpose, and their energy tends to lift the moment there is somewhere new to go. Familiarity is what wears on this placement. A few months into any routine, however good it is, restlessness usually sets in.
Moon in Scorpio or Sagittarius
Scorpio until about 16:30, then Sagittarius
needs and habits
Born before about 16:30: Moon in Scorpio
For Shigeo, the Moon in Scorpio means emotional needs that run deep and private, and a preference for managing a hard feeling alone over explaining it while it is still raw. Trust builds slowly and is rarely given back once broken. Even among the people closest to them, this Moon is likely to need real privacy.
Born after about 16:30: Moon in Sagittarius
The Moon in Sagittarius needs room to move and a bit of novelty in its routine to feel right. A schedule with no give in it can make Shigeo edgy faster than most people expect. With this Moon, the next trip tends to be planned before the current one has finished.
With Mercury in Scorpio, Shigeo tends to think in layers, looking for what is not being said as much as what is spoken aloud. Once they have decided to speak they can be very direct, and until then, silent. The tension is suspecting a hidden motive where there is only an ordinary one.
Venus in Sagittarius loves with enthusiasm and a need for shared adventure, and Shigeo probably values a partner who gives them room to roam. When things get serious, this placement can confuse freedom with distance. The pattern with this Venus is to plan the next trip together before settling into the current one.
Mars in Taurus acts deliberately and sticks with a course once chosen, and its anger builds slowly but takes a long time to cool once it arrives. At times Shigeo may dig in out of stubbornness rather than conviction. It takes real provocation to make this Mars snap, and the rattled feeling tends to last a while afterwards.
Jupiter in Aquarius
21° Aquarius 21' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Aquarius grows through community, ideas and causes bigger than one life. Shigeo may put so much trust in a theory or a group that its practical flaws are overlooked. Optimism about the future can make them a natural organiser of other people's efforts.
Saturn in Sagittarius builds discipline around belief and meaning, testing a big idea hard before committing to it. In front of people who might challenge a conviction, Shigeo is likely to hedge. Over time, someone with this Saturn often becomes a credible voice on the very questions they once felt they had no right to answer.
Uranus in Pisces
25° Pisces 31' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Shigeo has Uranus in Pisces in common with a generation. That generation transforms spirituality, art and collective imagination, often blurring boundaries that earlier ones kept firm. In one person it may be noticed as an openness to ideas that resist neat categories.
Neptune in Leo
26° Leo 59' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Leo is the imagination of an age group, not of Shigeo alone. It dreams in terms of fame, spectacle and larger-than-life self-expression. The trace of it in one person is a pull towards performance as a way of feeling real.
Pluto in Cancer
15° Cancer 30' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Shigeo to an era rather than describing one person. Those born in it live through deep transformation of family, home and nationhood. What an individual may carry is intensity around belonging and who counts as family.
Aspects in Shigeo Sugimoto’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.
Mercury trine Uranus
about 0.2° at midday
Insight is likely to come to Shigeo Sugimoto fast and without much effort, the product of thinking and originality that flow together easily. With Mercury trine Uranus, new ideas tend to arrive when they are needed, often faster than they can be written down.
Mercury square Neptune
about 1.6° at midday
Wishful assumptions, or a compelling but unverified story, can blur thinking when Mercury is square Neptune. What helps Shigeo is pairing imagination with a habit of checking the details before repeating the story as though it were settled fact.
Sun conjunction Venus
about 3.1° at midday
Who Shigeo 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.
Saturn square Neptune
about 3.2° at midday
Practical sense and idealism can pull against each other in this square, and for Shigeo that may mean either an uninspired routine or a dream with no realistic plan behind it. The way through is to build the structure and protect the dream at the same time, without sacrificing one for the other.
Mercury square Jupiter
about 4.0° at midday
Thinking can run ahead of the evidence when Mercury is square Jupiter, leading to overconfident claims or promises made faster than Shigeo can check them. Matching enthusiasm to what has been verified makes their confidence more durable, not less.
Saturn trine Uranus
about 4.6° at midday
This trine lets Shigeo build lasting structures that still leave room for change, because discipline and independence are allies here. Consistency and originality coexist with ease, and neither of them has to be given up to make room for the other.
