Shuichi Aizawa: zodiac sign and birth chart

Shuichi Aizawa is a Taurus, born on May 11, 1969. That gives him a Pisces Moon, Gemini Mercury, Aries Venus and Sagittarius Mars, all from the official guide. Taurus fits the detective with the afro who digs in: a family man and one of the most principled people on the team, who will not accept anything on trust.

NEBO's take

Canon says Taurus. Our model says Cancer.

We ran Aizawa 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 Cancer first: Sun, Moon and Mars, with Capricorn Rising and Scorpio Mercury and Venus. A protector under a serious face.

NEBO's take

Cancer SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonTaurusNEBO's takeCancer

    Canon's Taurus is the stubborn one: he sticks to what he believes is right. Cancer is the reason, a husband and father who cannot afford to be wrong.

  • Moon CanonPiscesNEBO's takeCancer

    Canon gives him a Pisces Moon, the soft side under the serious face. Our Cancer Moon says the same thing louder: family comes first.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeCapricorn

    No birth time in canon. First impression, Capricorn style: an afro and a serious, work-first face, the detective who already looks like he is filing the report.

  • Mercury CanonGeminiNEBO's takeScorpio

    Canon's Gemini passes information along. Our Scorpio keeps it close until it can be checked: his suspicions go quietly to someone who can verify them.

  • Venus CanonAriesNEBO's takeScorpio

    Canon's Aries is loyal without hedging. Scorpio Venus keeps its loyalty private and chooses its side carefully.

  • Mars CanonSagittariusNEBO's takeCancer

    Canon's Sagittarius goes straight for the truth. Cancer Mars protects: he will not let the case end on a lie.

Where we agree: both signs guard what they love. Taurus digs in and does not move, Cancer builds a shell around his family and the people he trusts.
