Tom Hooper’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
5 October 1972 was a Thursday: the day Tom Hooper was born in London, England. Their zodiac sign is Libra, with the Moon in Virgo. Tom turns 54 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Tom, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
Of the nine planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, six are in air signs, two in earth and one in fire; none is in water. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is six, none and three. Libra holds a stellium, five planets in one sign: Sun, Mercury, Mars, Uranus and Pluto. Closest of the aspects is the sextile between Mars and Neptune, about 0.3° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Saturn was retrograde. The Moon was a waning crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 24 other people born on 5 October, among them Václav Havel, Kate Winslet and Imran Khan.

Tom Hooper’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Libra
about 12° Libra at midday
A Libra Sun balances. Fairness, beauty and the quality of relationships tend to shape Tom Hooper's decisions, and this is a placement that can see both sides of almost anything. The growth lies in choosing a side when it counts.
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, Tom 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.
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 London, England, at each hour of the day.
Tom Hooper’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 5 October 1972, computed for London, England.

Tom Hooper’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Tom Hooper’s private life.
With the Sun in Libra, Tom Hooper's vitality is likely to rise in good company, and purpose to feel real when they are creating balance or beauty with other people. The risk is losing their own direction while managing everyone else's. Deciding alone is probably harder for them than deciding with a second opinion in the room.
The Moon in Virgo runs towards order, and a messy space or an unfinished list can unsettle Tom's mood more than most people would guess. Small, useful tasks are calming. The trouble can start when Tom's own needs become another chore to get right instead of something to enjoy.
Mercury in Libra thinks by weighing both sides, and Tom tends to communicate diplomatically, often finding the version of an idea that will land well with whoever is listening. Settling on an opinion can take so long that the moment for it passes. They may change their mind in the middle of a conversation because the other point had merit.
Venus in Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 09:35, then Virgo
love and values
Born before about 09:35: Venus in Leo
Venus in Leo loves generously and openly, and values being someone's clear favourite above almost anything else on offer. For Tom, 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 09:35: Venus in Virgo
With Venus in Virgo, Tom 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 Tom'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 Capricorn
1° Capricorn 01' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Capricorn grows through long-term discipline, and Tom 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 in Gemini builds discipline around clear expression, and it often begins with doubt about whether an idea is good enough to say out loud. For Tom that would mean overpreparing before speaking or writing anything. Once the self-consciousness eases, the result can be someone unusually precise and credible with words.
Uranus in Libra
18° Libra 17' at midday
freedom, generational
Tom holds Uranus in Libra in common with many people born in the same stretch of years. Together that generation reshapes ideas of partnership, fairness and how relationships are arranged. Its personal side is a readiness to question traditional roles more openly than earlier generations felt able to.
Neptune in Sagittarius
3° Sagittarius 12' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Tom in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
2° Libra 18' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Tom 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 Tom Hooper’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 sextile Neptune
about 0.3° at midday
In Tom Hooper's chart, drive and imagination help each other along gently, so inspired action is possible before everything has been mapped out. The motivation is soft but workable, and it keeps a creative or compassionate project moving without forcing it.
Mars conjunction Pluto
about 0.6° at midday
With Mars conjunct Pluto, drive tends to be intense and relentless, and once Tom is committed to something they are likely to see it through whatever the cost. There is staying power to spare, so the art is in choosing battles, and keeping that intensity away from the ones that do not deserve it.
Venus trine Jupiter
about 0.9° at midday
Affection and a sense of plenty reinforce each other in Tom's chart, and the result is a warm, easy generosity in relationships. With this trine, goodwill in love and friendship tends to be given freely and returned in kind, without much forcing on either side.
Jupiter square Pluto
about 1.3° at midday
Ambition can turn into a struggle for control under this square, over outcomes that were never fully Tom's to control. The considerable drive involved is better aimed at transformation than at domination, which tends to produce a result that lasts.
Mars square Jupiter
about 1.9° at midday
Drive can outrun capacity under Mars square Jupiter, and Tom may overextend on a project or on a promise made in a burst of confidence. The enthusiasm is sound. It needs matching to a pace that can be sustained.
Saturn trine Uranus
about 2.3° at midday
This trine lets Tom 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.

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?
