NEBO's take
Canon says Scorpio. His personality says Sagittarius.
We ran Sirius 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 fire: Sagittarius Sun, Mercury, Venus and Rising, with Aries Moon and Mars, the man who can't sit still for one more day.
Canon

Sagittarius SunRead from his personality- Sun
CanonScorpioNEBO's takeSagittarius
Canon's Scorpio is the intensity: the grudges, the war with his family, the prison he survived. Sagittarius is the part that runs at everything without a plan.
- Moon
CanonSagittariusNEBO's takeAries
Canon's Sagittarius Moon needs freedom like air. Our Aries Moon flares fast: Molly reminds him Harry isn't James, and dinner turns into a shouting match.
- Rising
CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeSagittarius
No birth time in canon. First impression, once he's cleaned up: a handsome man with a laugh like a bark. Sagittarius rising, loud and easy.
- Mercury
CanonSagittariusNEBO's takeSagittarius
Canon and our model both say Sagittarius: big, blunt truths, said first and loudest, usually straight at Snape.
- Venus
CanonVirgoNEBO's takeSagittarius
Canon's Virgo Venus shows love by being useful. Our Sagittarius is the flying motorbike Hagrid borrows from him in the very first chapter.
- Mars
CanonScorpioNEBO's takeAries
Canon's Scorpio fights with grudges that last decades. Our Aries is the big black dog bounding down the platform at King's Cross, because staying home was unbearable.
Where we agree: both charts burn hot, and Sagittarius shows up in both. Canon's Scorpio holds a grudge forever, our Sagittarius says the blunt thing out loud, and our Aries starts the fight.
How he shows up
Why he's like this
Scorpio is the sign of intensity, loyalty and grudges that never fade. Sirius has all three, plus a Sagittarius Moon that can't stand being locked in.
CoreScorpio Sun
Survives what breaks everyone else
Twelve years in Azkaban, where the dementors drive prisoners mad. He's the first wizard ever to break out, and he comes out thin and wild, but still thinking clearly.
Prisoner of Azkaban
In a fightMars in Scorpio
At war with his own family
His mother's portrait screams about Mudbloods and filth in the hall of Grimmauld Place. He roars right back: "Shut up, you horrible old hag!"
Order of the Phoenix
In a fightMars in Scorpio
Cut off, and proud of it
He shows Harry the Black family tree on the drawing-room wall. Where his name should be there's a burn mark: he ran away from home at sixteen.
Order of the Phoenix
FeelingsSagittarius Moon
Can't stand being shut in
Stuck at Grimmauld Place for months, he sneaks out as a huge black dog to walk Harry to the Hogwarts Express. Molly is not amused.
Order of the Phoenix
MindMercury in Sagittarius
Says the big truth plainly
He sizes up Crouch by how he treated his house-elf: if you want to know what a man's like, watch how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.
Goblet of Fire
LoveVenus in Virgo
Love that turns up in person
He hides in a cave above Hogsmeade, living mostly on rats, to be near Harry during the Triwizard Tournament. Harry, Ron and Hermione bring him chicken legs and bread.
