Alphonse Elric: zodiac sign and birth chart
Alphonse Elric has no canon birthday. Neither the manga nor the anime gives one. Read from his personality, he's a Scorpio with a Pisces Moon and rising sign: the boy whose soul lives in an empty suit of armor, who hides stray kittens inside his chest and never gets tired of looking after people. He loves fast, before anyone has agreed to the plan.

NEBO's take
No birthday in canon. His personality says Scorpio.
We ran Al 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 deep water first: he feels everything, gives it away quietly and never lets go of a promise.

Scorpio holds on. One blood seal keeps Al's soul in the armor, and he stays at his brother's side through every fight to get both their bodies back.

Pisces feels everything and says little. Armor doesn't sleep, so Al spends the nights alone with one question: are his memories even real?
- Rising
CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takePisces
No birth time in canon. First impression: a huge, quiet suit of armor with a soft voice, politer than anyone else in the room.

CanonNot in canonNEBO's takePisces
Pisces Mars fights for other people. Al learns alkahestry, the Xingese cousin of alchemy, because he wants to get stronger.
What canon does give: a soul pinned to a suit of armor by a blood seal, and a brother who put it there. The Pisces answer is to stay gentle anyway. The Scorpio part is the loyalty that doesn't let go.
