Sri Chinmoy’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Sri Chinmoy was born on Thursday, 27 August 1931, in Chattogram District, Bangladesh. Their zodiac sign was Virgo, with the Moon in Aquarius. They died on 11 October 2007, aged 76. No verified birth time is on file for them; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Earth carries the most weight: four of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, against fire two, air two and water one. By modality the count is four cardinal, three mutable and two fixed. Virgo holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Sun, Mercury and Neptune. Closest of the aspects is the square between Mars and Saturn, about 1.1° 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. Over the course of the day the Moon went from waxing gibbous to full.
StarMap's dataset holds 17 other people born on 27 August, among them Jamala, Cesária Évora and Deco.

Sri Chinmoy’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Virgo
about 3° Virgo at midday
A Virgo Sun refines. Sri Chinmoy 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
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
An Aquarius Moon feels from a step back. Sri Chinmoy 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 Chattogram District, Bangladesh, at each hour of the day.

Sri Chinmoy’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Sri Chinmoy’s private life.
A Virgo Sun finds purpose in being useful and doing a job properly, and Sri Chinmoy'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.
An Aquarius Moon processes daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and Sri Chinmoy 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.
For Sri Chinmoy, 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.
Venus in Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 16:33, then Virgo
love and values
Born before about 16:33: Venus in Leo
Venus in Leo loves generously and openly, and values being someone's clear favourite above almost anything else on offer. For Sri Chinmoy, the tension this suggests is needing steady reassurance of still being adored. Their gestures tend to be grand and thoughtful, and it can sting when those go unnoticed.
Born after about 16:33: Venus in Virgo
With Venus in Virgo, Sri Chinmoy 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 Sri Chinmoy'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
8° Leo 58' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Leo grows through creative confidence and a willingness to take up space. For Sri Chinmoy 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 Sri Chinmoy, 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 58' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus spends about seven years in each sign, so Sri Chinmoy 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 25' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune moves slowly, so Sri Chinmoy 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 30' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Sri Chinmoy 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 Sri Chinmoy’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 1.1° at midday
Sri Chinmoy'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 1.4° at midday
Sri Chinmoy'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.
Saturn square Uranus
about 1.8° at midday
The need for stability and the need for freedom can clash in Sri Chinmoy'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.
Sun conjunction Neptune
about 2.4° at midday
A Sun-Neptune conjunction tends to make Sri Chinmoy'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.
Mars opposition Uranus
about 2.9° at midday
When Sri Chinmoy 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.
Mercury sextile Pluto
about 3.0° at midday
Sri Chinmoy's thinking can reach their depth when it needs to, which gives them insight without unnecessary intensity. With this aspect they are likely to notice what others miss, which makes them a useful person to have in a hard conversation.
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.
