Simon Helberg’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief

Simon Helberg was born in Los Angeles, California, on 9 December 1980, a Tuesday. That makes Simon a Sagittarius, with the Moon in Capricorn. Simon turns 46 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Simon, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.

Of the ten planets, three are in fire signs, three in air, two in earth and two in water. Cardinal signs hold five, mutable signs three and fixed signs two. Sagittarius holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Sun, Mercury and Neptune. Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto all fall in Libra. They are slow planets, so the grouping is shared with people born around the same time. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mercury and Jupiter: a sextile, about 1.1° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. No planet was retrograde. The Moon was a waxing crescent.

StarMap's dataset holds 17 other people born on 9 December, among them Kirk Douglas, Judi Dench and John Malkovich.

Simon Helberg’s Sun, Moon and rising sign

Sun sign

Sagittarius

about 17° Sagittarius at midday

A Sagittarius Sun seeks. Meaning, distance and the bigger picture are likely to pull Simon Helberg forward, and the honesty of this placement is a kind of generosity. Its lesson is that the journey also needs somewhere to land.

All Sagittarius Suns

Moon sign

Capricorn

in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time

A Capricorn Moon feels responsibly. With it, Simon may hold themselves together for other people, and can be hard on themselves when they cannot. This Moon tends to be restored by accomplishment, by structure, and by the rare person allowed to see them tired.

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 Los Angeles, California, at each hour of the day.

Simon Helberg’s rising sign, by birth time

StarMap has not verified a birth time for Simon 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 9 December 1980, computed for Los Angeles, California.

Simon Helberg’s planets, sign by sign

Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Simon Helberg’s private life.

  1. Sun in Sagittarius

    17° Sagittarius 55' at midday

    purpose and vitality

    Growth, travel and ideas bigger than daily life are where Simon Helberg'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.

  2. Moon in Capricorn

    Capricorn, all day

    needs and habits

    With the Moon in Capricorn, Simon's comfort probably comes from accomplishing something concrete each day, and an unproductive day can leave them oddly unsettled even on holiday. Harder feelings tend to be kept for when they are alone. Before rest is allowed there is usually one more thing to tidy, organise or finish.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius

    6° Sagittarius 07' at midday

    mind and voice

    Simon's Mercury in Sagittarius thinks in big, connective leaps and communicates with enthusiasm and a wide frame of reference drawn from everywhere they have been. The weak point is generalising past what the details support. A specific question may get a sweeping theory nobody quite asked for.

  4. Venus in Scorpio

    19° Scorpio 30' at midday

    love and values

    Venus in Scorpio loves intensely and privately, and Simon is likely to value depth and total honesty over ease. Testing loyalty can create the very distance this placement fears most. There is an all-or-nothing quality to how this Venus commits, with little interest in anything in between.

  5. Mars in Capricorn

    13° Capricorn 34' at midday

    drive and anger

    Mars in Capricorn acts with discipline and patience, playing a longer game than most, and in Simon's case its anger tends to be controlled, arriving as coldness rather than heat. The tendency is to go quiet and distant instead of saying what is wrong. A frustration is something to outwork rather than voice.

  6. Jupiter in Libra

    7° Libra 15' 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.

  7. Saturn in Libra

    8° Libra 23' at midday

    discipline and doubt

    For Simon, 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.

  8. Uranus in Scorpio

    27° Scorpio 11' at midday

    freedom, generational

    Much of Simon's age group has Uranus in Scorpio. It changes attitudes to power, secrecy and what is held in common, often while living through upheavals in institutions once considered permanent. In an individual it tends to be a low tolerance for hidden agendas.

  9. Neptune in Sagittarius

    22° Sagittarius 13' at midday

    imagination, generational

    Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Simon in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.

  10. Pluto in Libra

    23° Libra 40' at midday

    power, generational

    Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Simon belongs to, because Pluto moves so slowly. That generation transforms ideas of partnership, fairness and what people owe one another. Personally it can be an intense need for relationships to be fundamentally fair.

Aspects in Simon Helberg’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.

  1. Mercury sextile Jupiter

    about 1.1° at midday

    Simon Helberg's thinking and optimism keep easy company, which gives their conversation a natural, engaging breadth. Curiosity does much of the work with this aspect, opening doors in conversation that a narrower focus would have missed.

  2. Jupiter conjunction Saturn

    about 1.1° at midday

    Growth and discipline are unusually well matched when Jupiter is conjunct Saturn, so Simon's optimism tends to come with a realistic plan attached. It is an effective combination for building things that last, with vision balanced by the patience to see it through.

  3. Mercury sextile Saturn

    about 2.3° at midday

    Turning a loose idea into something solid is easier with Mercury sextile Saturn, because Simon's thinking and sense of structure work together. The clarity is quiet and practical, and it shows most when a plan has to work.

  4. Sun conjunction Neptune

    about 4.3° at midday

    A Sun-Neptune conjunction tends to make Simon'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.

  5. Mars square Saturn

    about 5.2° at midday

    Simon'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.

  6. Mars square Jupiter

    about 6.3° at midday

    Drive can outrun capacity under Mars square Jupiter, and Simon may overextend on a project or on a promise made in a burst of confidence. The enthusiasm is sound. It needs matching to a pace that can be sustained.

One more aspect, listed without a reading. It is between two of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, whose aspects hold for years at a time, so everyone born while it holds shares it.
