Taurus Sun · Capricorn Moon · Aquarius rising
George Clooney’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
6 May 1961 was a Saturday: the day George Clooney was born in Lexington, Kentucky. The Sun was in Taurus, so Taurus is their zodiac sign, with the Moon in Capricorn and Aquarius rising. George turns 65 in 2026. The birth time, 02:58, comes from Astro-Databank with a Rodden rating of AA, which means it was taken from a birth certificate or birth record.
Earth carries the most weight: five of the ten planets, against fire three, air one and water one. Fixed signs hold six, cardinal signs three and mutable signs one. No two planets sit closer to an exact angle than Mars and Saturn: an opposition, 0.3° from exact. Two planets were retrograde: Neptune and Pluto. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 19 other people born on 6 May, among them Orson Welles, Dani Alves and Mateo Kovačić. Wikidata links George with one person in the dataset: Kelly Preston (listed as partners, 1987 to 1988).

George Clooney’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Taurus
15° Taurus 30'
A Taurus Sun builds. Comfort, steadiness and things that last probably matter more to George Clooney 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
Capricorn
27° Capricorn 22'
A Capricorn Moon feels responsibly. With it, George may hold themselves together for other people, and can be hard on themselves when they cannot. This Moon tends to be restored by accomplishment, by structure, and by the rare person allowed to see them tired.
Rising sign
Aquarius
19° Aquarius 24'
With Aquarius rising, George tends to come across as friendly, unusual and slightly detached. People remember an Aquarius rising as the one who thought differently, and who kept the crowd at arm's length while liking it.

George Clooney’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign and house: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about George Clooney’s private life.
Sun in Taurus
15° Taurus 30' · third house
purpose and vitality
A Taurus Sun finds purpose in building something that lasts, and George Clooney'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.
What energises George is talking, writing and swapping ideas with whoever happens to be around that day. With the Sun in the third house, curiosity is not a side interest but close to the core of who they are, and a good conversation can change their whole mood.
Moon in Capricorn
27° Capricorn 22' · twelfth house
needs and habits
With the Moon in Capricorn, George's comfort probably comes from accomplishing something concrete each day, and an unproductive day can leave them oddly unsettled even on holiday. Harder feelings tend to be kept for when they are alone. Before rest is allowed there is usually one more thing to tidy, organise or finish.
In the twelfth house, the Moon describes an emotional life that runs deeper than what shows on the surface, and George may need uninterrupted solitude to work out what they are feeling underneath. Quiet time alone can be a need for them, not a treat, whatever other people assume.
Mercury in Taurus
20° Taurus 39' · third house
mind and voice
With Mercury in Taurus, George is likely to think slowly and thoroughly, and a conclusion once reached is rarely revisited without good reason. The communication style is plain and practical rather than showy. A new idea that clashes with what they already believe may have to wait a while for a hearing.
The third house is Mercury's natural home, and words, ideas and quick exchanges come more easily to George than to most people. Someone with this placement is often the fastest talker or the sharpest writer in the room.
Venus in Aries
13° Aries 03' · second house
love and values
Venus in Aries loves with immediacy and pursues what it wants without much hesitation, and it values a partner who can keep up. For George 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.
With Venus in the second house, George has an eye for quality and comfort, and being surrounded by beautiful things probably matters more to them than an outsider would guess. George's taste leans towards pleasure, ease and things made well, over things that are merely practical.
Mars in Leo
0° Leo 07' · sixth house
drive and anger
Mars in Leo acts with confidence and wants the effort to be visible, and for George its anger is likely to flare when pride or loyalty is challenged. The tension is turning a disagreement into a matter of ego. Criticism of the work can feel personal to a Leo Mars, even when it was not meant that way.
Mars in the sixth house works with drive and stamina, and a repetitive task frustrates George unless there is a way to get through it fast. They like to be on the move, and physical effort is where tension from other parts of life gets used up.
Jupiter in Aquarius
6° Aquarius 33' · twelfth house
growth and excess
Jupiter in Aquarius grows through community, ideas and causes bigger than one life. George may put so much trust in a theory or a group that its practical flaws are overlooked. Optimism about the future can make them a natural organiser of other people's efforts.
George probably carries a quiet trust that things make sense, and solitude is apt to bring them insight rather than loneliness. With Jupiter in the twelfth house, that trust tends to hold even in the moments when the whole picture cannot yet be seen.
Saturn in Capricorn
29° Capricorn 50' · twelfth house
discipline and doubt
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 George, 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.
Saturn in the twelfth house puts a quiet discipline into George's private life, and solitude can feel like a duty before it slowly becomes a source of strength. Saturn here makes facing what is unresolved within slow work, and the peace it brings is likely to be hard-won.
Uranus in Leo
21° Leo 40' · seventh house
freedom, generational
George shares Uranus in Leo with a generation, one that redefines self-expression and individuality, often through forms of creativity and visibility that were not available before. Closer to home, it suggests being comfortable with being seen in ways older relatives find unfamiliar.
Uranus in the seventh house asks for relationships with more freedom and less convention than the average partnership, and George may look for people who respect that independence. A sudden shift in a relationship may rattle George less than most.
Neptune in Scorpio
9° Scorpio 47' ℞ · eighth house
imagination, generational
Neptune in Scorpio marks a long season that George 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.
With Neptune in the eighth house, intimacy can feel like dissolving the usual boundaries with another person, for better and sometimes for worse, and George can be unusually sensitive to what goes unsaid. Trust may ask them to keep their feet on the ground rather than merge completely and lose their own outline.
Pluto in Virgo
5° Virgo 34' ℞ · seventh house
power, generational
Pluto in Virgo is shared by George 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.
Pluto in the seventh house is associated with bonds that run unusually deep once trust is built, and in George's chart it points to close partnerships that change a person. The placement is also linked with power struggles before that trust has had a chance to settle in.
Aspects in George Clooney’s chart
How the planets stand to each other, tightest first.
Mars opposition Saturn
0.3° separating
Mars opposite Saturn can set George Clooney's wish to act against a fear of being blocked or criticised for it, and the result may be frustration with anything that slows them down. Working steadily around an obstacle usually gets further than fighting it head on.
Mercury square Uranus
1.0° applying
With Mercury square Uranus, the mind can jump so quickly that other people struggle to follow, or George may dismiss a slower approach that had merit. A good idea, paced, gives other people the chance to use it.
Moon conjunction Saturn
2.5° applying
The Moon conjunct Saturn describes an emotional life that is serious and self-contained, as though feelings were something to be managed without much outside help. It tends to make George steady under pressure, and what takes practice is letting themselves be comforted rather than always being the one holding things together.
Moon opposition Mars
2.7° applying
For George, the need for emotional safety pulls one way and an urge to assert themselves pulls the other, and the strain can come out as friction with people close to them. Stating a need directly, before frustration builds, keeps this from turning into recurring conflict.
Jupiter square Neptune
3.2° applying
Jupiter square Neptune lets optimism drift into wishful thinking, and plans can end up built more on hope than on a clear reading of the situation. For George the answer may be to keep hoping and to pair that hope with an honest look at the details.
Sun conjunction Mercury
5.2° separating
With the Sun conjunct Mercury, George's sense of self and way of thinking are fused, so an opinion can feel like a statement of who they are. They are likely to speak their mind readily, and telling a passing thought apart from their identity is a practice worth keeping up.
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.
