Tallulah Bankhead’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Tallulah Bankhead was born on Friday, 31 January 1902, in Huntsville, Alabama. The Sun was in Aquarius, so Aquarius was their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Scorpio. Tallulah died on 12 December 1968, aged 66. StarMap has no verified birth time for Tallulah, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
By element the count is five air, two earth, two water and one fire. Fixed signs hold four, mutable signs four and cardinal signs two. Three planets stand together in Aquarius: Sun, Mercury and Mars. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mercury and Neptune: a trine, about 0.2° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Venus, Neptune and Pluto were retrograde. The Moon was at its last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 19 other people born on 31 January, among them Justin Timberlake, Kenzaburō Ōe and Norman Mailer.

Tallulah Bankhead’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Aquarius
about 10° Aquarius at midday
An Aquarius Sun sees differently. Ideas ahead of their time, a wide circle of friends and a stubborn streak of independence are the marks of this placement in Tallulah Bankhead's chart. The growth is letting people close without feeling caged.
Moon sign
Scorpio
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
The Moon in Scorpio feels everything and shows little. For Tallulah that suggests trust that is slow, private and absolute; betrayal, once it happens, is not forgotten. This Moon is restored by intimacy without performance and by time alone to let things move.
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 Huntsville, Alabama, at each hour of the day.
Tallulah Bankhead’s rising sign, by birth time

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 31 January 1902, computed for Huntsville, Alabama.

Tallulah Bankhead’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Tallulah Bankhead’s private life.
Tallulah Bankhead's purpose, with the Sun in Aquarius, probably lies in being useful to a group or an idea bigger than themselves, with a vitality that rises around causes and communities. The tension can be detaching from their own needs while championing everyone else's. It is the placement of the reliable one at meetings who is the hardest person to reach one to one.
For Tallulah, the Moon in Scorpio means emotional needs that run deep and private, and a preference for managing a hard feeling alone over explaining it while it is still raw. Trust builds slowly and is rarely given back once broken. Even among the people closest to them, this Moon is likely to need real privacy.
In Tallulah's chart, Mercury in Aquarius describes thinking that is original and a step removed from convention, and communication that works best through ideas rather than small talk. The stubborn streak is holding a position out of principle after the evidence has moved on. In a group, this is the person who asks the question nobody else thought to ask.
Venus in Pisces loves without much guard, and Tallulah probably values emotional and even spiritual connection over anything practical. The temptation can be to idealise a partner before really seeing them. Generosity in relationships comes easily here, and so does missing the moment when giving starts to outweigh getting.
Mars in Aquarius acts on principle, and its anger surfaces most over unfairness or hypocrisy rather than personal slights. Tallulah can detach from a conflict so thoroughly that the other person feels shut out. The issue tends to get argued with heat while the relationship itself is treated with strange calm.
Jupiter in Capricorn
28° Capricorn 35' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Capricorn grows through long-term discipline, and Tallulah would probably rather build slowly and properly than quickly. The overreach is taking on more responsibility than any one person should reasonably carry. The authority this Jupiter brings is slow and hard-won, the kind people tend to trust more the longer they know someone.
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 Tallulah, 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 Sagittarius
20° Sagittarius 01' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus in Sagittarius is less about Tallulah 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 Gemini
29° Gemini 03' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
The dream of Neptune in Gemini is a collective one, shared across roughly fourteen years of births. The imagination of Tallulah's generation is shaped by information moving faster than anyone can fully verify. Its personal form is finding it hard to tell a compelling story apart from a true one.
Pluto in Gemini
16° Gemini 50' at midday ℞
power, generational
Tallulah shares Pluto in Gemini with many people born in the same long stretch of years. That generation transforms communication and collective thought, often through upheavals in how information is controlled and shared. The personal portion is an intense relationship with what counts as truth.
Aspects in Tallulah Bankhead’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.
Mercury trine Neptune
about 0.2° at midday
Tallulah Bankhead probably has a natural gift for metaphor, storytelling and intuitive leaps, the work of thinking and imagination in easy partnership. With Mercury trine Neptune, communicating something hard to put into words comes easily, in a way that other people often find memorable.
Venus trine Neptune
about 3.4° at midday
Tallulah is likely to love with a romantic, artistic quality that comes naturally, because affection and imagination flow together under this trine. Compassion and creativity arrive easily, and the people nearby tend to feel cared for as a result.
Mars sextile Uranus
about 3.4° at midday
Bold, original action comes to Tallulah 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.
Mercury conjunction Venus
about 3.6° at midday
Mercury conjunct Venus ties Tallulah's thinking closely to what they love, so they probably talk about affection and beauty with ease. It lends a diplomatic, pleasant way of putting things, especially when the subject is close to the heart.
Mercury conjunction Mars
about 5.4° at midday
With Mercury conjunct Mars, thinking and the drive to act are closely linked, so ideas turn into words and decisions almost immediately. It makes Tallulah quick and direct in conversation, and the discipline is letting a thought settle before saying it out loud.
Mars trine Neptune
about 5.6° at midday
An inspired, almost effortless way of pursuing creative or compassionate goals belongs to Mars trine Neptune, which puts Tallulah's drive and imagination in step. Energy and vision arrive together, so starting a meaningful project is likely to feel far less daunting than it looks from outside.
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?
