NEBO's take
No birthday in canon. His personality says Capricorn.
We ran John 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 first: disciplined, driven and not much for talking.

Capricorn works the plan and doesn't stop. John spends every day on the hunt for what took his wife.
- Moon

A Taurus Moon holds on. John keeps the Impala, the journal and every promise he made to Mary.
- Rising
CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeTaurus
No birth time in canon. First impression: a hard stare, a firm handshake and an order before hello.
- Mercury

Capricorn Mercury is short and practical. John leaves coordinates and a few words, and expects the boys to understand.
- Venus

Sagittarius Venus loves freely and with conviction. He was a man in love long before he was a hunter.
- Mars
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCapricorn
Capricorn Mars is a soldier. He trains his sons for war before they are old enough to understand it.
What canon does give: a man whose life stops on one night and who builds the rest around the mission. A Capricorn answer is to work harder and say less.
