Faramir: zodiac sign and birth chart

Faramir has no canon birthday. Tolkien gives no day, so the chart is NEBO's take, read from his personality. He's a Scorpio: the younger son who never gets credit, keeps his word, and turns down the most powerful object in the world without making a speech about it. Four Scorpio placements give him the depth and the self-control.

NEBO's take

No birthday in canon. His personality says Scorpio.

We ran Faramir 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 water first: Scorpio Sun, Moon, Mercury and Venus, with Pisces rising and a Leo Mars for courage.

NEBO's take

Scorpio SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio holds itself in check where others grab. Faramir says he would not take the Ring if he found it lying by the road, and he doesn't.

  • Moon CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio Moon keeps its hurt private. Faramir is compared to his brother all his life and carries it without a word.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takePisces

    No birth time in canon. First impression, Pisces style: gentle, thoughtful and a little tired. Before eating, Faramir and his men turn in silence toward the West.

  • Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio Mercury notices what's hidden. When Sam blurts out the secret, Faramir understands in an instant what Frodo carries.

  • Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio Venus loves with its whole heart. In the Houses of Healing he sees Éowyn and falls for her.

  • Mars CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeLeo

    Leo Mars is brave in the open, but Faramir wants no glory from it. He tells Frodo he does not love the bright sword for its sharpness or the warrior for his glory.

What canon does give: the Steward's second son, calm, honest and always compared to his brother. A Scorpio answer is a man who feels it all, says little and can't be bought.

How he shows up

    Courage without the glory
