What the chart says

Djimon, according to the stars

Core essence

Djimon is the steady one, the person whose yes means yes and whose Sunday looks the same as it did last year because it was a good Sunday. The core of Djimon is a deep loyalty to what is real: good food, a good bed, people who show up. They move slowly on purpose. Once they have decided something, it is decided, and that is a comfort to everyone around them.

The vibe

Underneath, Djimon cannot fully relax while anyone in the room is unhappy. The Moon in Libra feels through harmony and hates conflict in their own house. What Djimon needs to feel safe is fairness, softness and a partner in the small decisions. They are at their best when someone else picks the restaurant and they get to enjoy it.

How Djimon wants to be loved

Djimon wants to be loved in conversation. Venus in Gemini falls for a mind first: the banter, the shared joke, the person who keeps them guessing a little. Attention is the love language and boredom is the enemy. Keep talking to Djimon like it is the first week, and it can feel like it for years.

How Djimon creates

How Djimon makes things happen: they seep in. A Yin Water day master is rain, mist, the still pool that reflects everything. Djimon creates by sensing, by imagination, by noticing what nobody else said. Their influence is quiet and total. The work is not dissolving into everyone else's weather.

Instinct

Instinct: Djimon is larger than life, a Dragon year, and their gut reaction is to go big. Confident, lucky, a natural at the centre of things, and warm-hearted underneath the spectacle. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 3 is the creative. Djimon is here to express, to make, to say the thing in a way nobody has said it before. Joy is the work: the writing, the performing, the making people laugh. The lesson is finishing what the spark started.

Triggers

Triggers: being told to wait. Mars in Aries means Djimon gets angry fast, says it, and is over it before you have finished being hurt. The temper is honest and short. Give them a clear path and something to fight for, and all that heat turns into drive.

No public birth time is available, so this is a 9:00 p.m. reference evening sky for that date and place. It is connected to the night of birth; it is not the sky at the birth minute, and no other reading on this page uses that time. Dedications are commemorative AsterNym records and do not rename or confer ownership of stars.

Djimon Hounsou in 15 seconds

Taurus Sun

Slow to move, slower to leave.

Djimon Hounsou's Sun was in Taurus for the whole of April 24, 1964, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Taurus readings associate the sign with steadiness, sensory pleasure and things that last. Astrologers describe it as the fixed earth sign, ruled by Venus, and read it for loyalty, routine and a slow, deliberate pace. The corresponding tension is resistance to change, described in the tradition as stubbornness that presents itself as principle.

Wood Dragon

Sets the standard, then raises it.

Djimon Hounsou was born on April 24, 1964, which falls in a Wood Dragon year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Dragon readings emphasise confidence, luck and scale: the only mythical animal in the cycle, associated with ambition and with attention that arrives whether or not it was sought. The Chinese almanacs describe the Dragon as the sign of large gestures. The corresponding caution in the tradition is arrogance, and a difficulty with tasks too small to be seen.

Life Path 3

Makes feelings into something.

Djimon Hounsou's birth date, April 24, 1964, reduces to Life Path 3 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 3 readings associate the number with expression: words, humour, performance and making things. Numerologists describe it as the path of the communicator, sociable and quick. The corresponding tension is dispersal, with the caution that many things begun and few finished is the classical pattern the tradition warns this number about.

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Djimon Hounsou, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 2° to 14° Libra depending on the hour. The wheel's houses are a solar chart, counted from the Sun's sign, because the Ascendant needs a time.

Djimon’s Chiron, Ceres, Eros, Hygiea and Lilith

Four minor bodies and the mean lunar apogee, placed in the same tropical zodiac as the planets above. None of these feed the chart signature, the rarity score or any ranking on this site: they are listed for readers who use them. Chiron, Ceres, Eros and Hygiea positions come from JPL Horizons; Black Moon Lilith is the mean apogee, the point most published Lilith tables use. The readings are the modern tradition’s, not AsterNym’s. Without a birth time the degree is the noon value and the day's movement is shown alongside it.

  • ⚷ ChironPisces 17°21′ (moves 0.05° over the day)

    centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it

    Chiron in Pisces is read as a wound around boundaries and faith. The reading has Djimon absorbing more of a room than most, and needing somewhere to put it down.

  • ⚳ CeresCapricorn 6°58′ (moves 0.04° over the day)

    dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured

    Ceres in Capricorn is read as nurture through structure and provision. The reading has Djimon caring by building something that lasts for others.

  • ♡ ErosTaurus 20°58′ (moves 0.84° over the day)

    near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire

    Eros in Taurus is read as desire through the senses and through time. The reading has Djimon wanting what can be touched, kept and returned to.

  • ⚕ HygieaTaurus 28°20′ (moves 0.31° over the day)

    main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well

    Hygiea in Taurus is read as health through routine, food and rest. Djimon is read as someone whose wellbeing tracks their habits closely.

  • ⚸ Black Moon LilithSagittarius 11°12′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius is read as a refusal to be told what to believe. The reading has Djimon leaving any room where the truth is decided in advance.

Aspects to the asteroids and Lilith

Major aspects only, at a tight 3° orb. The Moon is left out because its position moves 13° across an untimed day.

  • Chiron trine Neptune 0.6°
  • Black Moon Lilith square Pluto 0.6°
  • Ceres trine Uranus 0.9°
  • Chiron square Venus 1.8°
  • Ceres trine Mercury 2.1°
  • Ceres trine Sun 2.7°

Method: JPL Horizons heliocentric vectors, 1700–2100, cubic Hermite interpolation; geocentric, true ecliptic of date, tropical; geometric (no light-time or aberration); Lilith = mean lunar apogee (Chapront/Meeus mean perigee + 180°).

Djimon’s dominant planets

Scored from rulerships, dispositors and aspect count. Without a birth time there is no Ascendant or house to score, and the Moon's sign is left out where it could change with the hour.

  1. 1. ☿ Mercury7 pts

    disposes Venus, Uranus, Pluto; 4 major aspects

  2. 2. ♀ Venus7 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Taurus; disposes Sun, Mercury, Jupiter; 1 major aspect

  3. 3. ♅ Uranus5 pts

    5 major aspects

A Mercury-led chart is read as the mind in charge: Djimon is read as thinking, talking and connecting their way through life.

How the score is built
  • Rules the Sun sign, Moon sign or Ascendant sign: 3 points each (traditional co-rulers of Scorpio, Aquarius and Pisces score half).
  • Sits in a sign it rules: 2 points.
  • Disposes another planet (that planet sits in a sign it rules): 1 point each.
  • Angular: 2 points in the first or tenth house, 1 point in the fourth or seventh (timed births only).
  • Every major aspect it makes: 1 point.

Dominance scoring is an AsterNym method. Other sites weight differently and can name a different leader for the same chart.

Configurations in Djimon’s chart

Closed shapes among the ten planets under the site’s one aspect-orb policy. The Moon is excluded without a birth time, so a shape that needs it is not claimed.

  • stellium, the shape it makesStellium in Taurus · Sun, Mercury, JupiterThree or more planets in one sign (four, or three with a luminary, by AsterNym's count): a concentration astrologers read as that sign's themes dominating the chart.

Minor aspects

semi-sextile 30° (orb 2°), semi-square 45° (orb 2°), quintile 72° (orb 1.5°), sesquiquadrate 135° (orb 2°), biquintile 144° (orb 1.5°), quincunx 150° (orb 2.5°). Pairs already in a major aspect are not repeated. Moon excluded without a birth time.

  • Mars sesquiquadrate Uranus 1.0°
  • Venus semi-square Jupiter 1.2°
  • Uranus quintile Neptune 1.3°
  • Venus quincunx Neptune 2.4°

Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Djimon Hounsou, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

No birth time is on public record for Djimon Hounsou, so this chart has three pillars rather than four. The hour pillar, the rising sign and the birth-sky star all need a time, and we would rather leave them out than invent one.

Where this data comes from

Djimon’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q298682, released under CC0, as do the occupations, works, teams and awards in the biography above. No documented birth time is available, so this chart is rated X on the Rodden scale, the astrological convention for how well evidenced a birth time is. Time-dependent results use a clearly labelled reference time and should not be read as their exact birth chart. Entries are matched to Wikidata by entity id rather than by name, kept only at day precision, and dropped where sources disagree on the date.
