Orochimaru: zodiac sign and birth chart

Orochimaru is a Scorpio, born on October 27. Canon never gives the year, so his Moon and the rest of his chart come from NEBO's take. Scorpio fits the Sannin who loses an arm to Naruto, coughs up a new body and calls the whole thing interesting.

NEBO's take

Canon says Scorpio. His personality says Libra.

We ran Orochimaru 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 air: Libra Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars for the polish, with a Gemini Moon and Aquarius rising.

NEBO's take

Libra SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonScorpioNEBO's takeLibra

    Canon's Scorpio is the obsession and the comeback: Naruto tears off his arm and it's back before the fight ends. Libra is the polite smile he keeps through all of it.

  • Moon CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeGemini

    Gemini Moon is curiosity. Watching Naruto's four-tailed form, he says the boy has caught his interest and wonders how it ends.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeAquarius

    No birth time in canon. First impression: he turns up on a bridge nobody invited him to and takes over the meeting.

  • Mercury CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeLibra

    Libra Mercury keeps the manners, and the manners are the threat. He throws a sword at Sai for not addressing him face to face.

  • Venus CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeLibra

    Libra Venus spots what's valuable. He finds a lonely boy, takes him in, and tells him life may have no purpose but is worth hanging around in to find out.

  • Mars CanonNo birth yearNEBO's takeLibra

    Libra Mars fights with style. When Naruto's chakra blast arrives he answers with the Triple Rashomon, one of his best defenses.

Where we agree: he's all curiosity and no warmth. Scorpio digs for the secret, Libra keeps the manners no matter what it costs.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Scorpio is the sign of obsession, secrets and coming back from anything. Orochimaru does all three, with excellent manners. NEBO's Aquarius, Gemini and Libra fill in the rest of his chart.
