Fred Weasley: zodiac sign and birth chart

Fred Weasley is an Aries, born on April 1, 1978. Yes, April Fools' Day, and yes, George too. Sun, Mercury and Venus all in Aries: the joke lands first, the thinking comes later, if it comes at all.

NEBO's take

Canon says Aries. His personality says Leo.

We ran Fred through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets him most often. It keeps him in fire but moves him to Leo: the showman who needs an audience for every prank.

NEBO's take

Leo SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonAriesNEBO's takeLeo

    Canon gives him the Aries rush: do it now, apologize never. Leo is the stage: he leaves Hogwarts in front of the whole school.

  • Moon CanonCapricornNEBO's takeSagittarius

    Canon's Capricorn Moon is the businessman behind the jokes. Our Sagittarius Moon just wants the next adventure.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeAries

    No birth time in canon. First impression on the Hogwarts Express: he helps a skinny stranger with his trunk, then spots the scar.

  • Mercury CanonAriesNEBO's takeLeo

    Canon's Aries talks fast and wins the room. Our Leo talks to the room: every joke comes with an audience.

  • Venus CanonAriesNEBO's takeLeo

    Aries asks straight out, across a crowded common room. Leo is the flair: at the Yule Ball he and Angelina dance so wildly that people back away.

  • Mars CanonCancerNEBO's takeLibra

    Canon's Cancer fights for family, flying car and all. Our Libra is the twin act: whatever he does, he does as a pair.

Where we agree: both charts are fire, start to finish. Canon's Aries goes first, our Leo goes big, and Fred's best moments do both at once.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Aries is the sign of going first, acting fast and never asking permission. Fred does all three, usually with fireworks.

  • CoreAries Sun

    Leaves in style

    Umbridge has had enough of them, and they've had enough of school. They summon their brooms, tell Peeves to give her hell from them, and fly out of Hogwarts mid-term.

    Order of the Phoenix

  • MindMercury in Aries

    Never a straight answer

    "Honestly, woman, you call yourself our mother?" He swears he's George, gets Mrs. Weasley to apologize, then admits he's Fred after all.

    Philosopher's Stone

  • LoveVenus in Aries

    Asks first, asks loud

    "Oi! Angelina!" He asks her to the Yule Ball by shouting across the common room. She looks over and says "All right, then."

    Goblet of Fire

  • FeelingsCapricorn Moon

    Turns jokes into a business

    Order forms, products tried out on themselves, and in the end a shop in Diagon Alley: Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. Under the pranks, a real business plan.

    Goblet of Fire, Half-Blood Prince

  • In a fightMars in Cancer

    Shows up for his people

    Harry is locked in his room at Privet Drive. So Fred, George and Ron fly the Ford Anglia over in the night and pull the bars off his window.

    Chamber of Secrets

  • CoreAries Sun

    First to break the rule

    They hand Harry the Marauder's Map, nicked from Filch's office in their first year, so he can sneak into Hogsmeade without a signed form.
