Sun

Cancer

17° Cancer 28'

You protect. Home, memory and the people you have decided are yours sit at the centre of your life, and you read a room before anyone speaks. Your strength is care; your task is to include yourself in it.

Moon

Leo

9° Leo 51'

You feel with your whole heart and you need that to be noticed. Warm attention fills you up; being overlooked empties you faster than anything. Play, creativity and loyal friends are your medicine.

Rising

Virgo

You come across as precise, observant and modest. People trust your judgement and sometimes mistake your reserve for coolness until they see how much you help.

Tom Hanks's full reading

Each planet by sign and house. First-draft readings in the StarMap voice, reviewed by our consulting astrologer before launch.

  1. Sun in Cancer

    17° Cancer 28' · tenth house

    purpose and vitality

    They feel most alive when Tom is caring for people and places that matter to they, and purpose is tied to belonging somewhere. The tension is taking things personally when they feel unneeded. It shows up in how much better their whole day goes after they have checked in on someone they love.

    Career and public standing matter to their sense of self more than almost anything else in their life, whether they admit that plainly or not. They want their name attached to something visible and worth being proud of, and they tend to work accordingly for years.

  2. Moon in Leo

    9° Leo 51' · eleventh house

    needs and habits

    They need warmth and acknowledgement worked into their everyday life, not just on big occasions. A day with no one noticing they drain they faster than a hard day with an audience. It shows up as brightening visibly the moment someone compliments something small they did.

    They feel most at ease surrounded by friends who share their outlook and their sense of what matters in the world. A sense of not belonging to any group can quietly unsettle they, while a steady community feels like part of their emotional foundation.

  3. Mercury in Cancer

    5° Cancer 47' · tenth house

    mind and voice

    They think in terms of memory and feeling as much as logic, and they communicate best when there is emotional trust in the room. The tension is letting mood colour how a fact gets delivered or received. It shows up as remembering exactly how a conversation felt years after the details have faded.

    They think strategically about their reputation and their next career move, often turning plans over quietly in their head long before anyone else knows they exist. Clear, well-timed communication tends to serve their ambitions better than almost any other single skill they have.

  4. Venus in Gemini

    22° Gemini 50' · tenth house

    love and values

    They love through conversation, wit and mental connection, and a partner who bores they i harder to stay with than one who challenges they. They value variety and being kept interested. The tension is treating a wandering attention as more serious than it is. It shows up as flirting through banter more naturally than through anything more direct.

    They bring charm and diplomacy to their public life, and people tend to genuinely enjoy working alongside they rather than merely tolerating they. A career that lets they create, connect or beautify something suits their temperament far better than one built on pure competition.

  5. Mars in Pisces

    17° Pisces 20' · sixth house

    drive and anger

    They act indirectly, often through avoidance or quiet withdrawal rather than confrontation, and their anger can turn into sadness before they have even named it as anger. The tension is absorbing conflict rather than addressing it. It shows up as needing to physically leave a tense room before they can work out what they feel.

    They bring drive and real stamina to their daily work, and a repetitive task can frustrate they badly unless they find a way to push through it fast. Physical activity helps they burn off tension that quietly builds up in other, less obvious parts of their life.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo

    0° Virgo 21' · twelfth house

    growth and excess

    They grow through mastering a craft in genuine, unglamorous detail, one small correction at a time. The overreach is perfectionism that turns growth into an endless list of corrections. It shows up as being trusted with more responsibility than they think they have earned, largely because they actually have.

    Their inner life holds a quiet sense of faith, and solitude often brings they real insight rather than isolation or loneliness. They tend to trust that things ultimately make sense, even in the moments when they genuinely cannot see the whole picture clearly yet.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio

    26° Scorpio 30' · third house

    discipline and doubt

    They build discipline around trust and control, often shaped by an early loss of something they could not get back. The doubt shows up as bracing for betrayal even in relationships that have given they no real reason to. It shows up as an eventual, hard-earned comfort with vulnerability that most people around they never see they struggle for.

    They may have felt held back in communication early on, perhaps feeling unheard or overly careful with their words, and speaking up freely took real, deliberate practice. What they say now tends to carry genuine weight, because they choose their words with real care.

  8. Uranus in Leo

    1° Leo 39' · eleventh house

    freedom, generational

    Shared across this generation, this placement marks people who redefine self-expression and individuality, often through new forms of creativity and visibility unavailable to earlier generations. Personally, it can show up as comfort being seen in ways older relatives find unfamiliar.

    They gather an unusual, wide-ranging group of friends around they and feel most alive contributing to causes focused on real change. Belonging matters to they, but strictly on their own terms, and they resist any group that asks they to blend in completely.

  9. Neptune in Libra

    27° Libra 38' · second house

    imagination, generational

    Shared by everyone born in this span, this placement marks a generation that idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by media images of love that outpace real relationships. Personally, it can show up as a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.

    Their relationship with money and material things may feel foggier than most people's, with resources sometimes slipping through their hands or arriving in genuinely unexpected ways. Their real values tend to lean toward something less tangible than possessions, however much they try to pin them down.

  10. Pluto in Leo

    26° Leo 59' · twelfth house

    power, generational

    Shared by everyone born in this span of years, this placement marks a generation that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. Personally, it can show up as a charged relationship with authority and who gets to hold the spotlight.

    Their inner life holds real depth, and facing what is hidden within themselves, rather than quietly avoiding it, tends to be where their real growth actually happens. Solitude often becomes the setting for genuine transformation, more than any single external event ever could manage alone.

Aspects

How the planets in Tom Hanks's chart talk to each other, tightest first.

  1. Sun trine Mars

    0.1° separating

    Their confidence and their drive move in the same direction, so they tend to act on their goals with very little internal resistance. This is genuine, uncomplicated energy that other people notice and often want to be near.

  2. Saturn square Pluto

    0.5° separating

    Their need for control and their instinct for transformation can clash, showing up as gripping tightly to a structure precisely when it most needs to change. Each time they let the old form go, the resulting strength is more genuine than the grip was.

  3. Neptune sextile Pluto

    0.6° applying

    Shared by this generation, the placement marks collective imagination and transformation cooperating gently, with relatively little friction. Personally, it can show up as cultural belief shifting alongside deeper change with real ease.

  4. Jupiter sextile Neptune

    2.7° separating

    Their sense of possibility and their imagination cooperate gently, giving they acces to inspired ideas without losing their footing. This is soft, workable optimism, useful for keeping a project hopeful without letting it drift too far from what is real.
