Sophia Bush’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
8 July 1982 was a Thursday: the day Sophia Bush was born in Pasadena, California. Their zodiac sign is Cancer, with the Moon in Aquarius. Sophia turns 44 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for Sophia; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Of the ten planets, six are in air signs, two in fire and two in water; none is in earth. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is four, two and four. Mars, Saturn and Pluto all fall in Libra. The tightest aspect is Venus trine Saturn, about 0.1° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Uranus and Neptune were retrograde. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.

Sophia Bush’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Cancer
about 16° Cancer at midday
A Cancer Sun protects. For Sophia Bush, home, memory and the people they have decided are theirs tend to sit at the centre of things, and they probably read a room before anyone speaks. Care is the strength of this Sun, and their task is to include themselves in it.
Moon sign
Aquarius
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
An Aquarius Moon feels from a step back. Sophia 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 Pasadena, California, at each hour of the day.
Sophia Bush’s rising sign, by birth time

Sophia Bush’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Sophia Bush’s private life.
With the Sun in Cancer, Sophia Bush is likely to feel most alive when caring for people and places that matter to them, and purpose is tied to belonging somewhere. Feeling unneeded is the sore spot for this placement, and it can be taken personally. The whole day may go better after checking in on someone they love.
An Aquarius Moon processes daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and Sophia 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.
Sophia's Mercury in Gemini describes a mind that moves fast across many subjects at once and communicates easily in almost any setting. The tension is skimming the surface of a topic and moving on before going deep enough to be sure of it. The result is knowing a little about a great many things.
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. Sophia 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.
In Sophia'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 Scorpio
0° Scorpio 37' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Scorpio grows by facing what is difficult rather than avoiding it, even when that is the harder road at the time. The overreach, for Sophia, may be an intensity that turns a manageable situation into an all-consuming one. The resilience tends to be noticed only after the hard part is over.
For Sophia, 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.
Uranus in Sagittarius
0° Sagittarius 59' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Sophia than about the years around their birth. People of that age transform belief and access to knowledge, often through unprecedented exposure to other cultures and ideas. The personal trace is a restlessness with any single worldview presented as the only one.
Neptune in Sagittarius
25° Sagittarius 05' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Sophia in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
24° Libra 07' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Sophia 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 Sophia Bush’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.
Venus trine Saturn
about 0.1° at midday
A steady, dependable way of loving, one that people trust, is what this trine gives Sophia Bush, since affection and commitment hold each other up. Relationships built on it tend to last, often well past the point where less committed people would have moved on.
Sun square Mars
about 0.2° at midday
Impatience, or a habit of picking fights that did not need picking, can come from the clash between Sophia's sense of self and their drive to act. With the Sun square Mars, a pause between the impulse and the action turns this friction into determination they can use.
Sun square Saturn
about 0.4° 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 Sophia pushes through it anyway, the achievement means more because it was tested.
Mars conjunction Saturn
about 0.7° at midday
With Mars conjunct Saturn, drive is disciplined and controlled, and Sophia is likely to channel energy into long, patient effort in place of short bursts. It makes them capable of sustained work. The risk is that caution talks them out of acting when the moment calls for it.
Venus trine Mars
about 0.7° at midday
Sophia is likely to have a warm, confident way of going after what, and who, they want, since affection and drive back each other up. Romance and creative work tend to come without strain under this trine, in a manner other people find refreshingly straightforward.
Mercury trine Jupiter
about 1.8° at midday
Sophia's thinking and sense of possibility reinforce each other, which gives them an easy, optimistic way of connecting ideas. Learning and explaining come naturally with Mercury trine Jupiter, and a good explanation of theirs tends to stay with people long after the conversation ends.
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?
