Richard Feynman's Birth Chart
Richard Feynman was born on May 11, 1918 in Queens, NY. The chart has the Sun in Taurus and the Moon in Taurus or Gemini. No birth time is on record for Richard Feynman, so the rising sign and houses cannot be known. The Moon changed sign during the day, so its sign depends on the birth time.

Richard Feynman's Big Three
Here is how Astrologer's interpretation library describes each of these placements, for anyone born with them.
Sun in Taurus: What Stays Built
Your identity is built from what lasts. You become yourself slowly, through the things you keep and the ground you refuse to give up, and people experience you as settled. You are at ease in a body and in the physical world, and your warmth comes out as food, comfort and reliable presence rather than speeches. Change that is forced on you meets a quiet, total resistance, and a life that moves too fast leaves you feeling like a guest in it. What you build stays built.

Planet positions in Richard Feynman's chart
| Planet | Sign | Degree |
|---|---|---|
| Sun | Taurus | 19°39′ to 20°37′ |
| Moon | Taurus or Gemini | 28°08′ to 12°25′ |
| Mercury | Taurus | 0°25′ to 0°31′ |
| Venus | Aries | 4°34′ to 5°38′ |
| Mars | Virgo | 15°14′ to 15°25′ |
| Jupiter | Gemini | 15°41′ to 15°54′ |
| Saturn | Leo | 8°30′ to 8°33′ |
| Uranus | Aquarius | 27°31′ to 27°32′ |
| Neptune | Leo | 4°29′ to 4°30′ |
| Pluto | Cancer | 3°58′ to 3°59′ |
| North Node (retrograde) | Sagittarius | 22°30′ to 22°28′ |
| Chiron | Aries | 2°09′ to 2°12′ |
With no birth time, each degree is given as the span the planet covered over the day of birth.
Element and modality balance
Only planets that stayed in one sign throughout the birth day are counted.
Counting nine planets from the Sun to Pluto: Fire 3, Earth 3, Air 2, Water 1. By modality: Cardinal 2, Fixed 5, Mutable 2.
A fixed emphasis
A fixed emphasis makes you steady and determined: you sustain, persist, and hold your ground, sometimes to the point of stubbornness.
The tightest aspects in Richard Feynman's chart
- Mars square Jupiter, orb 0°29′
- Venus trine Neptune, orb 1°08′
- Venus square Pluto, orb 1°39′
- Pluto square Chiron, orb 1°49′
- Neptune trine Chiron, orb 2°20′
- Mercury sextile Uranus, orb 2°59′
- Venus conjunct Chiron, orb 3°27′
- Mercury sextile Pluto, orb 3°33′
The three tightest, as the library describes them for anyone born with the same contact:
Mars square Jupiter: Pressure Against Belief
Your impulses and your convictions grind on each other. Speed wants to move now, the big picture wants meaning and scale, and one keeps trying to override the other, which shows up as rushing into things you believed in for about a week. Fed the wider view first, the raw drive gets a direction and the pressure turns into genuine stamina.
Venus trine Neptune: Effortless Enchantment
Charm and illusion run together so smoothly you have never questioned it. You make things lovely without effort, read a room's mood before it speaks, and slide into other people's feelings like water. The same flow amplifies whatever it carries, so a self-deceiving story about a relationship or a spending habit runs just as easily as the art does.
Venus square Pluto: Beauty Under Pressure
Money, attraction and comfort in this chart never stay light. One side wants harmony and fair exchange; the other keeps pulling toward control, intensity, and what's hidden in the transaction. It shows up in relationships that go deep fast, in an all-or-nothing relationship with spending, and in an aesthetic sense that finds the ordinary pretty thing boring. The friction produces real staying power in anything you actually value.
How this chart was calculated
Every position on this page is calculated with the Swiss Ephemeris for Richard Feynman's recorded date and place of birth. Without a birth time the rising sign and houses are unknown. Sun and Moon signs are stated only when they held true for the whole day. The interpretations come from the same library Astrologer uses in its own chart readings.
