Tucker Carlson’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Tucker Carlson was born in San Francisco, California, on 16 May 1969, a Friday. That makes Tucker a Taurus. The Moon changed sign at about 10:40, from Taurus to Gemini; which of the two is the Moon sign depends on the hour of birth. Tucker turns 57 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Tucker, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
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 mutable, three fixed and two cardinal. The tightest aspect is Sun trine Jupiter, about 0.5° 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: Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. The Moon was new.
StarMap's dataset holds 21 other people born on 16 May, among them Megan Fox, Pierce Brosnan and Janet Jackson. David Boreanaz was born on the very same day.

Tucker Carlson’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Taurus
about 25° Taurus at midday
A Taurus Sun builds. Comfort, steadiness and things that last probably matter more to Tucker Carlson than novelty, and people tend to trust someone who does not change their mind for show. The growth edge is letting go before something stops working.
Moon sign
Taurus or Gemini
Taurus until about 10:40, then Gemini (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 10:40: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon feels through the body and its surroundings. On this reading, good food, familiar places and slow evenings are what restore Tucker, and sudden change lands hard. Once they feel safe, they can be the steadiest person in the room.
Born after about 10:40: Moon in Gemini
The Moon in Gemini processes feeling by naming it. For Tucker, talking, writing and switching perspective are likely ways to settle, and silence can make small worries loud. They probably need people who let them think out loud.
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 San Francisco, California, at each hour of the day.
Tucker Carlson’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Tucker 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 16 May 1969, computed for San Francisco, California.

Tucker Carlson’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Tucker Carlson’s private life.
A Taurus Sun finds purpose in building something that lasts, and Tucker Carlson's vitality probably runs slow and steady rather than in bursts. The drawback is a reluctance to change course even when the plan is clearly not working. People with this Sun can stay in one job or one home long after part of them knows it is time to move.

Taurus until about 10:40, then Gemini
needs and habits
Born before about 10:40: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon needs routine, familiar food and physical comfort to feel steady from day to day. A sudden change of schedule probably unsettles Tucker more than they let on. A good bed, a favourite mug or the same coffee order can turn an unsteady morning around.
Born after about 10:40: Moon in Gemini
The Moon in Gemini runs its daily habits on conversation and mental stimulation, and Tucker is likely to settle by talking a worry through rather than sitting with it quietly. A day with no one to talk to can leave them restless. The habit is to message a friend the moment something comes to mind, before deciding what to think about it.
Tucker's Mercury in Gemini describes a mind that moves fast across many subjects at once and communicates easily in almost any setting. The tension is skimming the surface of a topic and moving on before going deep enough to be sure of it. The result is knowing a little about a great many things.
Venus in Aries loves with immediacy and pursues what it wants without much hesitation, and it values a partner who can keep up. For Tucker that suggests an interest that can fade once the chase is over. The pattern is to fall fast and to need a relationship to keep feeling like a choice, not a routine.
Mars in Sagittarius acts boldly and wants room to move while doing it, and its anger flares fast over anything that feels like a limit on freedom. Tucker may speak bluntly in the heat of the moment and smooth it over later. Given the choice, this placement walks away from a fight rather than staying to work it out.
Jupiter in Virgo
26° Virgo 10' at midday ℞
growth and excess
Jupiter in Virgo finds its growth in mastering a craft in unglamorous detail, one small correction at a time. For Tucker, perfectionism may be the excess, turning growth into an endless list of corrections. People with this Jupiter are often trusted with more responsibility than they feel they deserve, usually because the care in the work shows.
Saturn in Taurus gathers its discipline around security and the things a person relies on, and Tucker is likely to take very little for granted. The doubt is a fear that stability could disappear, even when it clearly has not. This placement likes to know what things cost before committing, and tends to stay careful even in steady times.
Uranus in Libra
0° Libra 03' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Tucker 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 Scorpio
27° Scorpio 23' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Scorpio marks a long season that Tucker shares with many people of a similar age. Its imagination is drawn to the hidden, the taboo and the transformative, with a wider cultural fascination for secrets and endings. In an individual that can be a pull towards mystery for its own sake.
Pluto in Virgo
22° Virgo 28' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Virgo is shared by Tucker and many people born in the same span of years. That generation lives through deep change in work, in how services are organised, and in daily life itself. In one person that can be intensity around control, order and how much any one system can carry.
Aspects in Tucker Carlson’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.
Sun trine Jupiter
about 0.5° at midday
With the Sun trine Jupiter, Tucker Carlson's sense of self and instinct for growth support each other, which gives them a warm, expansive confidence. They are likely to be quick to see an opening and to make the most of it without forcing anything.
Venus trine Mars
about 1.0° at midday
Tucker 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.
Jupiter sextile Neptune
about 1.2° at midday
Inspired ideas are within Tucker's reach without any loss of footing, since possibility and imagination are gently linked by this sextile. The optimism is soft and workable, useful for keeping a project hopeful without letting it drift far from what is real.
Sun opposition Neptune
about 1.7° at midday
For Tucker, a clear, grounded sense of self sits on one side, and on the other a habit of idealising people or situations past what they can deliver. With this aspect, holding compassion and clear sight together resolves more than choosing one over the other.
Mercury opposition Mars
about 2.5° at midday
Tucker is likely to hold a point of view firmly and, with Mercury opposite Mars, to argue it harder than the moment calls for. Listening as actively as they argue resolves more than winning the point does.
Sun trine Pluto
about 3.2° at midday
Tucker's sense of self and capacity for change support each other, so they are likely to meet hard periods with resilience and come out of them still themselves. A Sun-Pluto trine is deep strength, and it does not need to be loud.
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.
