Yukio Shimomura’s birth chart
Born 25 January 1932, in Hiroshima, Japan. StarMap has no verified birth time yet.

Yukio Shimomura’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Yukio Shimomura was born on Monday, 25 January 1932, in Hiroshima, Japan. That made Yukio an Aquarius. The Moon left Leo for Virgo at about 21:45 local time, which leaves the Moon sign open without a birth time. Yukio died on 13 August 2026, aged 94. StarMap has not verified a birth time yet, so the chart is cast for midday on that date and has no houses.
By element the count is three earth, two fire, two air and two water, leaving out the Moon, whose sign depends on the birth time. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is four, three and two. Closest of the aspects is the opposition between Venus and Neptune, exact to a tenth of a degree. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Three planets were retrograde: Jupiter, Neptune and Pluto. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 20 other people born on 25 January, among them Vladimir Vysotsky, Noemi and Xavi.

Yukio Shimomura’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Aquarius
about 3° 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 Yukio Shimomura's chart. The growth is letting people close without feeling caged.
Moon sign
Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 21:45, then Virgo (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 21:45: Moon in Leo
A Leo Moon feels with its whole heart and needs that to be noticed. Warm attention tends to fill Yukio up, and being overlooked can empty them faster than anything. Play, creativity and loyal friends usually bring them back to themselves.
Born after about 21:45: Moon in Virgo
A Virgo Moon feels by fixing. When something is wrong, Yukio 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 Hiroshima, Japan, at each hour of the day.
Yukio Shimomura’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Yukio 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 25 January 1932, computed for Hiroshima, Japan.

Yukio Shimomura’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Yukio Shimomura’s private life.
Yukio Shimomura'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.

Leo until about 21:45, then Virgo
needs and habits
Born before about 21:45: Moon in Leo
A Leo Moon needs warmth and acknowledgement worked into everyday life, not just on big occasions. A day with no one noticing can drain Yukio faster than a hard day with an audience. The mood tends to lift visibly the moment someone compliments something small Yukio did.
Born after about 21:45: Moon in Virgo
The Moon in Virgo runs towards order, and a messy space or an unfinished list can unsettle Yukio's mood more than most people would guess. Small, useful tasks are calming. The trouble can start when Yukio's own needs become another chore to get right instead of something to enjoy.
Mercury in Capricorn thinks methodically, and Yukio tends to communicate in a measured, practical way that people trust. The focus on a useful conclusion can be so strong that ideas which have not yet proven their worth are dismissed. Yukio will often get straight to the point in a conversation other people expected to be casual.
Venus in Pisces loves without much guard, and Yukio 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. Yukio 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 Leo
19° Leo 24' at midday ℞
growth and excess
Jupiter in Leo grows through creative confidence and a willingness to take up space. For Yukio 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.
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 Yukio, 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 Aries
15° Aries 50' at midday
freedom, generational
Uranus spends about seven years in each sign, so Yukio shares Uranus in Aries with many people of a similar age. It marks a generation that pushes for change through direct, individual action rather than waiting for permission. In one life it can appear as impatience with the slow-moving institutions older generations built.
Neptune in Virgo
7° Virgo 27' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune moves slowly, so Yukio shares its place in Virgo with people born years either side. The imagination of this generation turns towards service, craft and idealised routines of self-improvement. In one life it can mean chasing an impossibly perfect daily practice.
Pluto in Cancer
20° Cancer 48' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Cancer dates Yukio to an era rather than describing one person. Those born in it live through deep transformation of family, home and nationhood. What an individual may carry is intensity around belonging and who counts as family.
Aspects in Yukio Shimomura’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.
Venus opposition Neptune
about 0.0° at midday
This opposition sets grounded affection against a tendency to idealise someone beyond anything that person has shown. For Yukio Shimomura, checking a relationship against plain facts protects the very tenderness that makes the pull so appealing.
Sun conjunction Mars
about 1.6° at midday
With the Sun conjunct Mars, Yukio's will and identity are fused, which makes for strong, immediate drive and a low tolerance for sitting still. They probably act on impulse more often than most, and aiming that energy at a goal of their own serves them better than using it up on the first thing in front of them.
Mercury square Uranus
about 2.1° at midday
With Mercury square Uranus, the mind can jump so quickly that other people struggle to follow, or Yukio may dismiss a slower approach that had merit. A good idea, paced, gives other people the chance to use it.
Jupiter trine Uranus
about 3.6° at midday
Jupiter trine Uranus gives Yukio a knack for spotting unconventional opportunities before other people do, which is what a sense of possibility and originality produce together. Growth arrives through new directions, ones a more cautious approach would probably have missed.
Saturn opposition Pluto
about 5.8° at midday
Yukio may be torn between maintaining careful control and a deeper need to let something be transformed, even at the price of some of the structure they built. Allowing change without treating it as failure tends to resolve more than holding on tighter.
Mercury opposition Pluto
about 7.1° at midday
With Mercury opposite Pluto, other people's attempts to control the story can collide with Yukio's own conclusions and turn a disagreement into a deeper power struggle. Staying with the argument itself, rather than the fight for control, resolves more.
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.
