Green Lantern (Hal Jordan): zodiac sign and birth chart

Hal Jordan has no fixed canon birthday. The comics never settle on one date. Read from his personality, he's a Scorpio: a test pilot with Sun, Moon and Venus in the same sign, a stubborn streak you can't dent and a will strong enough to power a ring. A Leo rising and Sagittarius Mercury and Mars add the swagger.

No single element runs his chart. 3 fire, 3 water.
Double Scorpio. Sun and Moon in the same sign, about 1 in 12 people have that.
About 1 in 47 birthdays get Hal in the app's Superman world.
Other Scorpios here: Wonder Woman (Diana), Aquaman (Arthur Curry) and Martian Manhunter (J’onn J’onzz).

NEBO's take

No fixed birthday in canon. His personality says Scorpio.

We ran Hal 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 over fire: a stubborn will under a cocky grin.

NEBO's take

Scorpio SunRead from his personality

Sun CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio
Scorpio is intense and doesn't show fear. The ring picks Hal because he's a man who feels none, or at least refuses to show it.
Moon CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio
Scorpio Moon feels everything underneath. After Coast City falls, it all comes out wrong.
Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeLeo
No birth time in canon. First impression: a grin, a flight jacket and a cocky walk straight to the nearest jet.
Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeSagittarius
Sagittarius Mercury says it straight and a little too loud. In 1970 a man on the street tells him off, and Hal takes it.
Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio
Scorpio Venus loves hard and doesn't let go. Carol Ferris, his boss at Ferris Aircraft, sees right through him.
Mars CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeSagittarius
Sagittarius Mars jumps first. The ring turns whatever he can imagine into a green construct.

What canon does give: a test pilot picked by a ring because he doesn't feel fear. A Scorpio answer is that he does feel it, and powers through it with willpower.

Scorpio is the sign of willpower, intensity and loyalty that doesn't bend. Hal hits every one of them, in stories fans know.
