Izumi Curtis: zodiac sign and birth chart
Izumi Curtis has no canon birthday. Neither the manga nor the anime gives one. Read from her personality, she's a Cancer: the alchemy teacher who left Ed and Al on a deserted island with nothing so they'd learn what One is All, All is One means. She calls herself just a housewife, then puts a grown man on his back.

NEBO's take
No birthday in canon. Her personality says Cancer.
We ran Izumi 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 water with a hard shell: fiercely protective, tender with her own and furious when someone she loves gets hurt.

CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCancer
Cancer cares like a fortress. Izumi's students are hers, and the island month she puts Ed and Al through sounds cruel and comes from love.
- Moon
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeLibra
Libra Moon wants things in balance. She believes in the principle of equal exchange so thoroughly that she built a whole philosophy on it: One is All, All is One.
- Rising
CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeLibra
No birth time in canon. First impression: a polite, pleasant woman, until she isn't.
- Mercury
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCancer
Cancer Mercury says the practical thing. She runs a butcher shop with her husband Sig and speaks with the authority of someone who has seen what alchemy costs.
- Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeNo clear pick
- Mars
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeSagittarius
Sagittarius Mars acts straight away. She transmutes with a clap of her hands because she has seen the Truth, and she hits faster than that.
What canon does give: a teacher who is also a housewife, a butcher and the scariest person in the series. Cancer is the protective core. She shows it with her fists.
How she shows up
Why she's like this
Cancer is the sign of care, protection and loyalty. Izumi hits every one of them, in scenes fans know by heart.

Just a housewife
Izumi introduces herself as just a housewife, and means it. Then she throws somebody across the room.

FeelingsLibra Moon
A month on an island
To teach Ed and Al what One is All, All is One means, she leaves them on a deserted island for a month to survive on their own.
Brotherhood, flashback

The butcher of Dublith
She and her husband Sig run a butcher shop. It's where the brothers return to their teacher.

Clap, then strike
She has seen the Truth, so she transmutes without a circle, just by clapping her hands. Her fists are quicker.

CoreCancer Sun
Knows the price better than anyone
Years ago she tried to bring back her stillborn child and lost some of her organs for it. That is why she coughs up blood, and why she is so hard on the boys.
