NEBO's take

Canon says Cancer. His personality says Capricorn.

We ran Steve 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 the officer first: duty, discipline and the hardest job taken without a word.

NEBO's take

Capricorn SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonCancerNEBO's takeCapricorn

    Canon's Cancer is the protector. Capricorn is the officer: in the Battle of New York he hands every Avenger a job, down to "Hulk, smash."

  • Moon CanonTaurusNEBO's takeAries

    Canon's Taurus Moon is steady and won't budge. Our Aries Moon reacts first: he jumps out of a plane without a parachute at the start of The Winter Soldier.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeAries

    No birth time in canon. First impression: a skinny guy telling a loud heckler in a movie theater to show some respect, then taking the beating in the alley.

  • Mercury CanonCancerNEBO's takeCapricorn

    Canon's Cancer speaks from the heart. Our Capricorn keeps it plain and proper: "Language!" in Age of Ultron, and nobody lets him forget it.

  • Venus CanonGeminiNEBO's takeSagittarius

    Canon's Gemini bonds through banter. Our Sagittarius falls for the bravest person in the room, and Peggy Carter shoots at his shield to make a point.

  • Mars CanonLibraNEBO's takeAries

    Canon's Libra fights for what's fair and argues it first. Our Aries charges straight in, shield up, before anyone has a plan.

Where we agree: both charts put other people first. Canon's Cancer protects them, our Capricorn takes the orders and the blame for them.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Cancer is the sign of protecting your people and holding on to home. Steve hits both, in scenes fans know by heart.

  • CoreCancer Sun

    Protects people first

    At boot camp a grenade lands in the middle of the recruits. Everyone runs. The smallest guy there throws himself on it. It's a dummy, and it gets him the serum.

  • CoreCancer Sun

    Brings his people home

    Stuck on a USO stage in tights, he hears his friend's unit has been captured. He goes behind enemy lines alone and walks back with hundreds of men.

  • MindMercury in Cancer

    Says what he feels, plainly

    Asked if he wants to kill Nazis, he says no: "I don't like bullies. I don't care where they're from." That answer is why the doctor picks him.

  • FeelingsTaurus Moon

    Will not stay down

    Beaten in a Brooklyn alley, holding a trash can lid as a shield, he gets up again and says "I can do this all day."

  • LoveVenus in Gemini

    Makes friends with a joke

    Morning run around the National Mall. He laps the same runner again and again, "On your left," and that's how he meets Sam Wilson.

    Captain America: The Winter Soldier

  • In a fightMars in Libra

    Fights for what's fair

    The governments want the Avengers on a leash. Steve won't sign: "The safest hands are still our own." He argues it out before anyone swings.
