Simon Baker was born in Launceston, Tasmania, Australia, on 30 July 1969, a Wednesday. Their zodiac sign is Leo, with the Moon in Aquarius. Simon turns 57 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Simon, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
Air carries the most weight: four of the ten planets, against fire three, earth two and water one. Fixed signs hold five, mutable signs three and cardinal signs two. Closest of the aspects is the conjunction between Jupiter and Uranus, about 1.1° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. One planet was retrograde: Neptune. Over the course of the day the Moon went from full to waning gibbous.
StarMap's dataset holds 19 other people born on 30 July, among them Arnold Schwarzenegger, Christopher Nolan and Patrick Modiano.

Simon Baker’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 6° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Simon Baker 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
Aquarius
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
An Aquarius Moon feels from a step back. Simon 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.
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 Launceston, Tasmania, Australia, at each hour of the day.
Simon Baker’s rising sign, by birth time

Simon Baker’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Simon Baker’s private life.
Purpose for Simon Baker 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.
An Aquarius Moon processes daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and Simon 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.
Mercury in Leo gives Simon a mind that thinks in confident, story-shaped terms and communicates with warmth and a bit of flair, drawing people in even when the subject is dry. Attachment to being right can make Simon more persuasive than accurate. A simple update, in their hands, can become something closer to a performance.
Venus in Gemini loves through conversation, wit and mental connection, and tends to find a dull partner harder to stay with than a challenging one. Simon probably values variety and being kept interested. Attention may wander with this Venus, and that can be treated as more serious than it is. Banter is the natural way to flirt here, more than anything more direct.
Mars in Sagittarius acts boldly and wants room to move while doing it, and its anger flares fast over anything that feels like a limit on freedom. Simon may speak bluntly in the heat of the moment and smooth it over later. Given the choice, this placement walks away from a fight rather than staying to work it out.
Jupiter in Libra
2° Libra 10' at midday
growth and excess
In Simon's chart, Jupiter in Libra suggests growth through partnership and a gift for bringing people together. Excess here looks like pleasing people so broadly that every expectation becomes a commitment. Someone with this Jupiter is often the connector whose introductions and events other people benefit from more than they realise.
Saturn in Taurus gathers its discipline around security and the things a person relies on, and Simon is likely to take very little for granted. The doubt is a fear that stability could disappear, even when it clearly has not. This placement likes to know what things cost before committing, and tends to stay careful even in steady times.
Uranus in Libra
1° Libra 03' at midday
freedom, generational
Simon 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 Scorpio
25° Scorpio 57' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Scorpio marks a long season that Simon shares with many people of a similar age. Its imagination is drawn to the hidden, the taboo and the transformative, with a wider cultural fascination for secrets and endings. In an individual that can be a pull towards mystery for its own sake.
Pluto in Virgo
23° Virgo 14' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Virgo is shared by Simon 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 Simon Baker’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 conjunction Uranus
about 1.1° at midday
Growth comes suddenly and by unconventional routes with Jupiter conjunct Uranus, and Simon Baker is likely to be drawn to opportunities that break from the expected path. Openness to change is the strength. Following through on one bold idea before moving on to the next is the discipline.
Sun square Saturn
about 1.8° at midday
With the Sun square Saturn, confidence meets resistance, often in the form of self-doubt or an authority figure whose approval feels hard to win. When Simon pushes through it anyway, the achievement means more because it was tested.
Sun trine Mars
about 1.9° at midday
Confidence and drive move in the same direction for Simon, so they are likely to act on their goals with very little inner resistance. The energy of a Sun-Mars trine is uncomplicated, and other people notice it and often want to be near it.
Venus square Pluto
about 2.1° at midday
Where Venus squares Pluto, the desire for closeness can get tangled with control, and the aspect is associated with jealousy, possessiveness or testing a partner's loyalty. Whenever Simon chooses trust over control, that intensity becomes a strength instead of a strain.
Mars sextile Jupiter
about 2.6° at midday
There is confident, well-aimed energy in this sextile, and not much wasted effort, since Simon's drive and optimism pull together. Taking the initiative suits Simon, above all when they commit to one goal and do not scatter their energy across several.
Mars sextile Uranus
about 3.8° at midday
Bold, original action comes to Simon without much friction, because drive and independence are on good terms in this sextile. It is useful initiative with little drama attached, the sort that tries something new without making a big production of it.
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?
