Criston Cole: zodiac sign and birth chart

Criston Cole has no canon birthday. The show doesn't give one, and neither does Fire & Blood. Read from his personality, he's a Capricorn: the commoner who wins a white cloak by sword alone and holds a grudge like a medal. Virgo Moon keeps him strict, Leo rising wears the cloak well, and Scorpio Venus gives every grudge and every love its depth.

NEBO's take

No birthday in canon. His personality says Capricorn.

We ran Criston 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 earth with iron in it: ambitious, proud, and ruled by a code he can't quite live up to.

NEBO's take

Capricorn SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCapricorn

    Capricorn climbs from nothing. The unknown Dornish knight who unhorses Daemon at the tournament proves himself the hard way.

  • Moon CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeVirgo

    A Virgo Moon is strict about duty. He takes the Kingsguard oath to heart, and punishes himself when he breaks it.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeLeo

    No birth time in canon. First impression: the white cloak, a straight back and a presence that fills the doorway.

  • Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCapricorn

    Capricorn Mercury is stiff and blunt about rank. He picks a public fight with Harwin Strong, the Hand's son, and won't back down.

  • Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio Venus loves all in. He falls for Rhaenyra, and his oath collapses.

  • Mars CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCapricorn

    Capricorn Mars is cold when something has to be protected. When Joffrey Lonmouth threatens to talk, Criston ends it.

What canon does give: a steward's son from the Dornish Marches with no name, who earns a place in the Kingsguard with a sword. A Capricorn answer is that he climbs on discipline and guards his honor like it's the only thing he owns.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Capricorn is the sign of ambition, discipline and a long climb. Criston hits every one of them, in scenes fans know by heart.

It isn't given anywhere in the show. Fire & Blood, the book behind it, gives years at most, never a day or month.

Earth. Capricorn is an earth sign, and 4 of his 6 placements are earth too.
