Rhysand: zodiac sign and birth chart

Rhysand is a Scorpio, born on November 20. Maas picked her husband's birthday for him, and no year is ever given, so his Moon and the rest of his chart come from NEBO's take. Scorpio fits the High Lord of the Night Court: magnetic, secretive, and the one half of Prythian is sure is the villain.

Which A Court of Thorns and Roses character are you?

SourceBirthday: Sarah J. Maas picked her husband's birthday for Rhysand, and her publisher Bloomsbury confirmed it on Twitter in November 2018. Prythian's calendar gives no year, so only the Sun is canon. The other planets are NEBO's take.

NEBO's take

Canon says Scorpio. Our model says Scorpio too.

We ran Rhysand through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets him most often. It reads him as Scorpio first, with Scorpio Rising and Mercury, a Cancer Moon, and Libra Venus and Mars.

NEBO's take

Scorpio SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonScorpioNEBO's takeScorpio

    Canon's Scorpio lets half of Prythian believe he's the monster. His real power is that he never needs to explain himself.

  • Moon CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeCancer

    Canon gives no year, so the Moon is our take. Cancer fits the one who keeps a whole city hidden from Amarantha, and every person in it safe.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeScorpio

    No birth time in canon. First impression, Scorpio style: black clothes, black wings and a lazy grin, lounging in the middle of Amarantha's court.

  • Mercury CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio Mercury is a daemati: he reads minds and whispers inside other people's heads. He has a sharp joke for the rest.

  • Venus CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeLibra

    Libra loves beauty and balance, and Velaris is full of art, music and rooftop evenings. Even his charm has a plan.

  • Mars CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeLibra

    Libra Mars fights like a chess player. Court meetings, bargains and battles all get the same cool, smiling calculation.

Where we agree: the Sun. Both read as power kept quiet, a man who plays the long game and lets everyone underestimate him.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Scorpio is the sign of secrets, depth and a power kept hidden. Rhysand hits all three in scenes fans know, and NEBO's take fills in the rest of his chart.

  • First impressionScorpio rising

    Grins in the middle of a nightmare

    In the first book he is the High Lord in Amarantha's hall who leans back, jokes in Feyre's face and treats her fear like entertainment. Dangerous, and enjoying it.

  • CoreScorpio Sun

    Lets everyone think he's the villain

    Under the Mountain he spends years as Amarantha's willing servant, cruel in public, so that she never finds Velaris or the people in it.

    Hides a whole city

    He takes Feyre to Velaris, the city of art and starlight that Amarantha never found, and she learns it has been protected the whole time.

    Reads minds, teaches shields

    The daemati who can break into any head is the one who teaches Feyre to build a mental shield.
