Uncle Ben: zodiac sign and birth chart

Uncle Ben has no canon birthday. Neither the comics nor the films give one. Read from his personality, he's a Taurus: warm, steady and unshowy, the man who tells Peter what he needs to hear and then drives him home. Almost the whole chart sits in that sign.

NEBO's take

No birthday in canon. His personality says Taurus.

We ran Ben 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 earth all the way: patient, warm and the steadiest man in the room.

NEBO's take

Taurus SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus

    Taurus is steady. In the Raimi film Ben tells Peter that this is the age when a man becomes who he will be for the rest of his life.

  • Moon CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus

    A Taurus Moon holds the line when Peter lashes out. When Peter yells that Ben isn't his father, Ben doesn't yell back.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeTaurus

    No birth time in canon. First impression: a gentle, tired man who always has time for the kid.

  • Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus

    Taurus Mercury says it once. "With great power comes great responsibility" is about as long as Ben's speeches get.

  • Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus

    Taurus Venus shows love in small things: a ride home, a listening ear, being there when Peter walks in late.

  • Mars CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeVirgo

    Virgo Mars shows up and does the work. In The Amazing Spider-Man, he goes out into the night to look for Peter himself.

What canon does give: a quiet man who raises Peter and teaches him one rule. A Taurus answer is to say it once, mean it, and live it.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Taurus is the sign of steadiness, comfort and quiet values. Ben hits every one of them, in scenes fans know.

    The speech about becoming a man

    In the Raimi film Ben sits Peter down and tells him this is the age when a man becomes who he'll be for life. It is a short, kind speech.
