Shunichiro Okano’s birth chart
Born 28 August 1931, in Tokyo, Japan. StarMap has no verified birth time yet.
Virgo Sun · Moon in Aquarius or Pisces
Shunichiro Okano’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
28 August 1931 was a Friday: the day Shunichiro Okano was born in Tokyo, Japan. That made Shunichiro a Virgo. The Moon was in Aquarius until about 04:30 and in Pisces afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Shunichiro died on 2 February 2017, aged 85. StarMap has not verified a birth time yet, so the chart is cast for midday on that date and has no houses.
Earth carries the most weight: five of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, against fire two, air one and water one. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is four, one and four. Virgo holds a stellium, four planets in one sign: Sun, Mercury, Venus and Neptune. Closest of the aspects is the square between Mars and Saturn, about 0.5° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Three planets were retrograde: Mercury, Saturn and Uranus. The Moon was full.
StarMap's dataset holds 18 other people born on 28 August, among them Jack Black, Shania Twain and David Fincher.

Shunichiro Okano’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Virgo
about 3° Virgo at midday
A Virgo Sun refines. Shunichiro Okano is likely to notice what could be better and quietly make it so, keeping the highest standards for themselves. The art of this placement is knowing when good enough is the wiser choice.
Moon sign
Aquarius or Pisces
Aquarius until about 04:30, then Pisces (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 04:30: Moon in Aquarius
An Aquarius Moon feels from a step back. Shunichiro is likely to understand an emotion better than they inhabit it, and to need space and ideas to process. For this Moon, friends are family and freedom is security.
Born after about 04:30: Moon in Pisces
With the Moon in Pisces, Shunichiro 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.
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 Tokyo, Japan, at each hour of the day.
Shunichiro Okano’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Shunichiro 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 28 August 1931, computed for Tokyo, Japan.

Shunichiro Okano’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Shunichiro Okano’s private life.
A Virgo Sun finds purpose in being useful and doing a job properly, and Shunichiro Okano's energy tends to stay steady as long as there is a task worth doing well. Rest is the hard part, because it can feel undeserved until everything is fixed. Typically a piece of work is still being adjusted long after everyone else would call it finished.
Moon in Aquarius or Pisces
Aquarius until about 04:30, then Pisces
needs and habits
Born before about 04:30: Moon in Aquarius
An Aquarius Moon processes daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and Shunichiro is likely to need a degree of independence built into any close relationship. The temptation is to analyse a feeling instead of simply having it. Even after a good day with people, this Moon needs time alone to recover.
Born after about 04:30: 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 Shunichiro more than talking things out. It can be easy for them to miss how much of what they feel belongs to someone else.
For Shunichiro, 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.
With Venus in Virgo, Shunichiro is likely to love through small, practical acts of service and to value competence and reliability in a partner. People with this Venus tend to be hardest on those they love most, and can mistake giving notes for giving care. They may try to fix a partner's problem before simply listening to it.
In Shunichiro's chart, Mars in Libra acts diplomatically and prefers negotiation to confrontation, and its anger tends to stay buried until it is too big to ignore. Avoided consistently, conflict leaves resentment building underneath the calm surface. The pattern is saying yes to something that rankled, then feeling it later.
Jupiter in Leo
9° Leo 09' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Leo grows through creative confidence and a willingness to take up space. For Shunichiro 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.
Saturn is at home in Capricorn, a placement that builds discipline as naturally as breathing and often takes on responsibility earlier than most. The doubt, for Shunichiro, may be never quite believing that enough has been achieved to relax. Others tend to recognise this kind of authority well before it is claimed.
Uranus in Aries
18° Aries 57' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus spends about seven years in each sign, so Shunichiro shares Uranus in Aries with many people of a similar age. It marks a generation that pushes for change through direct, individual action rather than waiting for permission. In one life it can appear as impatience with the slow-moving institutions older generations built.
Neptune in Virgo
5° Virgo 27' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune moves slowly, so Shunichiro shares its place in Virgo with people born years either side. The imagination of this generation turns towards service, craft and idealised routines of self-improvement. In one life it can mean chasing an impossibly perfect daily practice.
Pluto in Cancer
21° Cancer 32' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Shunichiro 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 Shunichiro Okano’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.
Mars square Saturn
about 0.5° at midday
Shunichiro Okano's drive can meet resistance, from outside obstacles or from private doubt, and frustration builds when progress feels blocked. Under this square, every stretch of steady work done anyway turns that resistance into competence, the kind that is there when it is needed most.
Mercury trine Saturn
about 0.9° at midday
Shunichiro's thinking has discipline behind it, which gives them a clear, methodical way of working through ideas. With Mercury trine Saturn, conclusions can be trusted because they have usually been tested already, often more thoroughly than anyone nearby realises.
Sun conjunction Neptune
about 1.6° at midday
A Sun-Neptune conjunction tends to make Shunichiro's sense of self porous and imaginative, drawn towards ideals, art or causes bigger than everyday life. Compassion and creativity come with it, and so does the task of keeping a clear enough sense of who they are underneath the dream.
Saturn square Uranus
about 1.8° at midday
The need for stability and the need for freedom can clash in Shunichiro's chart, producing either rigid routines that eventually snap or sudden breaks from commitments that were meant sincerely. Saturn square Uranus is best answered with structure loose enough to bend before it has to break.
Mars opposition Uranus
about 2.3° at midday
When Shunichiro acts on their own terms, it can bring them up against people or systems that expect the usual process to be followed; this opposition lives in that clash. Rebellion chosen deliberately, moment by moment, tends to serve them better than a reaction to every restriction.
Sun conjunction Venus
about 3.0° at midday
Who Shunichiro 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. 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?
