Makarov Dreyar: zodiac sign and birth chart
Makarov Dreyar has no birthday in canon, so his chart is NEBO's take. Read from his personality, he's a Cancer all the way down: Sun, Moon, Rising, Mercury, Venus and Mars in one sign. The tiny old man who grumbles about the paperwork, then takes the blame for every one of his kids.

No birthday in canon. His personality says Cancer.
We ran Makarov 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 in every placement, about as pure as a chart gets.
Canon

Cancer is home. The guild is his family, and he defends it like one.
- Moon

Cancer Moon forgives. He welcomes former enemies into the guild, because he believes anyone can change.
- Rising

No birth time in canon. First impression, Cancer style: a tiny old man in a hat, half grumpy and half proud.
- Mercury
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCancer
Cancer Mercury grumbles over every little thing, from the Council's letters about property damage to the noise.
- Venus
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCancer
Cancer Venus loves through dinner and pride. He grumbles at you, then treats you and tells you how proud he is.
- Mars
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCancer
Cancer Mars protects. When someone goes after his kids, the tiny old man grows to giant size.
What canon does give: a master with a guild full of troublemakers who never gives up on any of them. A Cancer answer is to grumble, feed them and stand in front.
