Joseph Joestar: zodiac sign and birth chart

Joseph Joestar is a Libra, born on September 27, 1920. Sun, Mercury and Venus all sit in Libra: the charming trickster who talks his way out of anything. Sagittarius Mars never says no to a fight, and a Pisces Moon hides a softer heart than the act lets on.

NEBO's take

Canon says Libra. Our model says Sagittarius.

We ran Joseph 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 first: a cocky, restless guy who hates training and still learns faster than anyone.

NEBO's take

Sagittarius SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonLibraNEBO's takeSagittarius

    Canon's Libra is charm and fair play with a trick up the sleeve: he predicts his opponent's next line and has the trap ready. Sagittarius is the cocky grin that goes with it.

  • Moon CanonPiscesNEBO's takePisces

    Pisces Moon in both charts: a softer heart than the act. He hides it behind jokes until a friend gets hurt.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeCancer

    No birth time in canon. First impression: a loud, cocky teenager who talks too fast for his own good.

  • Mercury CanonLibraNEBO's takeSagittarius

    Libra Mercury talks his way out of trouble. Sagittarius Mercury says the first thing that comes to mind, and half the time it works.

  • Venus CanonLibraNEBO's takePisces

    Libra Venus is charm. Pisces Venus is the soft spot: he goes all the way for the people he likes.

  • Mars CanonSagittariusNEBO's takeSagittarius

    Sagittarius Mars in both charts: restless, jumps in without a plan, and hates training. Hamon is a gift he never wanted to practice.

Where we agree: the Moon is Pisces and Mars is Sagittarius in both charts. Canon's Libra charms you, our Sagittarius runs at the problem laughing, and Joseph does both.
