Lalo Salamanca: zodiac sign and birth chart

Lalo Salamanca has no canon birthday. Better Call Saul never gives one. Read from his personality, he's an Aries. Sun, Mercury and Mars all sit in the same sign: the cheerful, joking nephew who says exactly what is on his mind and is dangerous the whole time. A Sagittarius Moon wants room to move, and Scorpio rising hides the rest.

NEBO's take

Aries SunRead from his personality

Sun CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeAries
Aries is quick and confident. Lalo makes friends in seconds, and his smile is part of the danger.
Moon CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeSagittarius
Sagittarius Moon hates being boxed in. Lalo follows his hunch wherever it leads, all the way to Germany.
Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeScorpio
No birth time in canon. First impression: a cheerful relative with a big smile. Scorpio rising keeps the real read of the room to himself.
Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeAries
Aries Mercury jokes and says what he thinks. He is the first to sense that something is off about Gus.
Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takePisces
Pisces Venus is warm to the people it counts as family. Under the grin, Lalo keeps a close tie to his uncle Hector.
Mars CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeAries
Aries Mars strikes without warning. When hired killers come for him, he is already one step ahead.

What canon does give: a funny, friendly relative with a very sharp instinct for who is lying to him. An Aries answer is to joke around until the moment he needs to move.
