NEBO's take
Canon says Pisces. His personality says Virgo.
We ran Newt 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 first: the careful keeper with the notebook, the feeding times and the very organized case.

CanonPiscesNEBO's takeVirgo
Canon's Pisces is the soft heart: he'd cross an ocean to free a Thunderbird. Virgo is the work behind it: grooming, feeding, notes.
- Moon
CanonSagittariusNEBO's takeTaurus
Canon's Sagittarius Moon needs distance and open skies, and he has just spent a year in the field. Our Taurus Moon wants comfort: the case is a home with its own routine.
- Rising
CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeTaurus
No birth time in canon. First impression in New York: a worn blue coat, a battered case that keeps rattling, and a man who clearly isn't in a hurry to explain. Taurus rising.
- Mercury
CanonAquariusNEBO's takeTaurus
Canon's Aquarius thinks sideways: he's writing a book on magical creatures and where to find them, and says it as if it's a normal job. Our Taurus is plainer: he trusts what he has seen with his own eyes.
- Venus
CanonAriesNEBO's takeCancer
Canon's Aries loves fast and openly: Pickett rides in his pocket. Our Cancer loves by minding: every creature fed, safe and warm.
- Mars
CanonGeminiNEBO's takeTaurus
Canon's Gemini improvises: the Erumpent dance in the zoo. Our Taurus never quits: he chases his Niffler through a bank and out the other side.
Where we agree: both charts are about looking after what can't look after itself. Canon's Pisces does it with feeling, our Virgo does it with a feeding schedule.
How he shows up
Why he's like this
Pisces is the sign of feeling for those who can't speak for themselves. Newt is that in the films, with a Sagittarius Moon that's always ready to leave.
CorePisces Sun
Crosses an ocean for one creature
He arrives in New York in 1926 with one job: to carry a Thunderbird he rescued from traffickers to Arizona and set it free.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
CorePisces Sun
Worried about the creature, not the mess
A Niffler gets out of his case in a New York bank and goes after everything shiny. Newt's first thought is for the Niffler, not for the damage.

MindMercury in Aquarius
Thinks sideways
Tina asks what he's doing in New York. He's just finished a year in the field, he says, and he's writing a book about magical creatures and where to find them.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
LoveVenus in Aries
Loves like a friend, not an owner
A tiny Bowtruckle called Pickett rides in Newt's breast pocket nearly the whole film, and Newt treats him as a friend, not a pet.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
In a fightMars in Gemini
Improvises with total confidence
In Central Park Zoo he performs the Erumpent's mating dance, grunts and all, to lure the creature back to his case. He doesn't look embarrassed once.

Carries his freedom with him
Inside the battered suitcase there's a different habitat for every creature, big enough for a Thunderbird. He can take the whole wide world anywhere.
