Rei Ayanami: zodiac sign and birth chart

Rei Ayanami is an Aries, born on March 30. Canon gives no year, so her Moon and the rest of the chart come from NEBO's take. Aries fits the pilot who is first to move, even bandaged, even when nobody asks her to explain why.

NEBO's take

Canon says Aries. Our model says Scorpio.

We ran Rei through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets her most often. It reads her as Scorpio first, with Cancer Moon and Rising: still on the surface, very deep underneath.

NEBO's take

Scorpio SunRead from her personality
  • Sun CanonAriesNEBO's takeScorpio

    Canon's Aries is the one who gets up first: in episode 1 she tries to sortie while still bandaged. Our Scorpio does it in silence and never explains.

  • Moon CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeCancer

    Canon gives no year, so the Moon is our take. Cancer keeps its few people close: a bare concrete room, and the way Shinji's kindness gets in anyway.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeCancer

    No birth time in canon. First impression: pale hair, a bandaged arm, almost no expression. She says little and notices a lot.

  • Mercury CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeNo clear pick

  • Venus CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio Venus loves with its whole weight and says nothing. The first kindness anyone shows her is Shinji's, and she tries to smile at it.

  • Mars CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio Mars doesn't flinch. At Yashima she holds Unit-00's shield while the Angel's beam eats through it.

Where we agree: she acts before she explains. Canon's Aries does it in one move, our Scorpio does it quietly and never says why.

How she shows up

Why she's like this

Aries is the sign of going first. Rei does it without a word, in scenes fans know by heart, and our Scorpio and Cancer take supply the depth.

  • CoreAries Sun

    Gets up first, hurt or not

    Rei is wheeled in with her arm in bandages, and when the Angel attacks she is ordered to sortie anyway. She tries to get up from the stretcher. That is what makes Shinji say yes.

    Episode 1

  • FeelingsCancer Moon

    A few people, kept close

    Shinji brings her a new ID card and sees how she lives: a concrete room with almost nothing in it. She lets him in without a word.

    Episode 6

  • In a fightMars in Scorpio

    Doesn't flinch

    Operation Yashima: she holds Unit-00's shield between the Angel and Shinji while the beam melts it through, so he can line up the second shot.

What zodiac sign is Rei Ayanami?

Aries. Official Evangelion data lists her birthday as March 30, and Aries runs from March 21 to April 19. No birth year is given.

When is Rei Ayanami's birthday?

March 30. Canon gives no year, so her age and the rest of the chart aren't fixed by a date.

On paper, yes. It sounds odd for someone this quiet, but Aries is also the sign that steps up first, and Rei does that every time. Our model reads her as Scorpio: still, intense and loyal.

What element is Rei?

Fire. Aries is a fire sign.

Who is Rei most compatible with?

By chart, Misato Katsuragi, Ritsuko Akagi and Kozo Fuyutsuki. Cancer Moon and Pisces Moon: they calm down the same way, no translation needed.
