Steve Ballmer’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief

Steve Ballmer was born in Detroit, Michigan, on 24 March 1956, a Saturday. That makes Steve an Aries, with the Moon in Virgo. Steve turns 70 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Steve, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.

Of the ten planets, four are in fire signs, three in earth, two in water and one in air. Cardinal signs hold four, fixed signs three and mutable signs three. The tightest aspect is Sun trine Saturn, about 1.4° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Five planets were retrograde: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. The Moon was waxing gibbous, between first quarter and full.

StarMap's dataset holds 21 other people born on 24 March, among them Rafael Orozco Maestre, Dario Fo and Nathalia Dill.

Steve Ballmer’s Sun, Moon and rising sign

Sun sign

Aries

about 4° Aries at midday

An Aries Sun starts things. For Steve Ballmer that points to energy that is direct and impatient with delay, and to feeling most like themselves when there is something to go first at. The work of this placement is finishing what the spark began.

All Aries Suns

Moon sign

Virgo

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

A Virgo Moon feels by fixing. When something is wrong, Steve is likely to look for the practical cause and to calm down by tidying, planning or being useful. The lesson of this Moon is to accept help without a to-do list attached.

Steve Ballmer’s rising sign, by birth time

StarMap has not verified a birth time for Steve 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 24 March 1956, computed for Detroit, Michigan.

Steve Ballmer’s planets, sign by sign

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

  1. Sun in Aries

    4° Aries 02' at midday

    purpose and vitality

    With the Sun in Aries, Steve Ballmer's sense of purpose tends to come alive when there is a clear start line. They probably feel most like themselves pushing into something new, though that energy can burn hot and fade before the finish. The typical pattern is a project launched with excitement, then handed off once the routine sets in.

  2. Moon in Virgo

    Virgo, all day

    needs and habits

    The Moon in Virgo runs towards order, and a messy space or an unfinished list can unsettle Steve's mood more than most people would guess. Small, useful tasks are calming. The trouble can start when Steve's own needs become another chore to get right instead of something to enjoy.

  3. Mercury in Pisces

    22° Pisces 08' at midday

    mind and voice

    Mercury in Pisces thinks in images and impressions more than straight lines, and Steve is likely to communicate through metaphor, tone and instinct rather than clean argument. Explaining a conclusion they nonetheless feel certain about can be the struggle. It is the kind of mind that knows something is off before it can say why.

  4. Venus in Taurus

    18° Taurus 46' at midday

    love and values

    Venus in Taurus loves steadily and shows it through consistency, touch and shared comfort rather than grand gestures, and in Steve's chart it is likely to value loyalty and things built to last. Because change feels like loss, this Venus can hold on to a relationship past its natural end. Months in, people with this placement tend to remember exactly how someone takes their coffee.

  5. Mars in Capricorn

    16° Capricorn 15' at midday

    drive and anger

    Mars in Capricorn acts with discipline and patience, playing a longer game than most, and in Steve'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 Leo

    22° Leo 22' at midday ℞

    growth and excess

    Jupiter in Leo grows through creative confidence and a willingness to take up space. For Steve 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.

  7. Saturn in Sagittarius

    2° Sagittarius 40' at midday ℞

    discipline and doubt

    Saturn in Sagittarius builds discipline around belief and meaning, testing a big idea hard before committing to it. In front of people who might challenge a conviction, Steve is likely to hedge. Over time, someone with this Saturn often becomes a credible voice on the very questions they once felt they had no right to answer.

  8. Uranus in Cancer

    28° Cancer 16' at midday ℞

    freedom, generational

    Uranus in Cancer belongs to an age group rather than to Steve alone. Its mark is a generation that redefines home and family, departing from the structures the previous generation grew up inside. At the personal level it is read as a pull to build family life differently.

  9. Neptune in Libra

    29° Libra 43' at midday ℞

    imagination, generational

    A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Steve among them. It idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by images of love on screen that outpace real relationships. The personal echo is a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.

  10. Pluto in Leo

    26° Leo 32' at midday ℞

    power, generational

    Pluto in Leo is held by a whole generation, one that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. At a personal scale, for Steve, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.

Aspects in Steve Ballmer’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. Sun trine Saturn

    about 1.4° at midday

    Effort and identity feel like the same project under a Sun-Saturn trine, because Steve Ballmer's sense of self and capacity for discipline reinforce each other. What they build tends to last, since ambition and patience are already in agreement.

  2. Venus trine Mars

    about 2.5° at midday

    Steve 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.

  3. Mercury sextile Venus

    about 3.4° at midday

    Thinking and affection are easy companions in Steve's chart, which gives them a natural charm in how they communicate. With Mercury sextile Venus, expressing appreciation and finding the right words go together, especially in moments when they want someone to feel noticed.

  4. Venus square Jupiter

    about 3.6° at midday

    Under this square, Steve's generosity can run past what is sustainable, whether in time, affection or promises made in a warm moment. The warmth is sincere; the work is matching it to a scale that can be kept up over the months that follow the excitement, not only the first one.

  5. Jupiter conjunction Pluto

    about 4.2° at midday

    Jupiter conjunct Pluto describes growth that is intense and transformative, and Steve is likely to pursue opportunities that change their circumstances outright instead of merely improving them. Ambition comes with it, and the skill is pacing that intensity so that it builds and does not flare and fade.

  6. Saturn trine Uranus

    about 4.4° at midday

    This trine lets Steve build lasting structures that still leave room for change, because discipline and independence are allies here. Consistency and originality coexist with ease, and neither of them has to be given up to make room for the other.

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.
