Lex Luthor: zodiac sign and birth chart

Lex Luthor has no fixed canon birthday. The comics never settle on one date. Read from his personality, he's a Libra: a man who cares how it looks as much as how it is, and who fights in public opinion before he throws a punch. Mercury and Mars sit in the same sign, and Aries Moon and rising make him strike the second he feels humiliated.

NEBO's take

No fixed birthday in canon. His personality says Libra.

We ran Lex 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 on top and fire underneath: polished, persuasive and furious when someone else gets the applause.

NEBO's take

Libra SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeLibra

    Libra fights for the image. In Batman v Superman he turns the public and the Senate against Superman before a punch is thrown.

  • Moon CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeAries

    Aries Moon never forgets an insult. In the old Superboy comics a lab fire costs young Lex his hair and he blames Superboy forever.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeAries

    No birth time in canon. First impression: a man in a wig, a charming smile and a plan he isn't going to tell you about.

  • Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeLibra

    Libra Mercury sells the idea. In the comics he wins the White House by being the smoothest voice in the room.

  • Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeVirgo

    Virgo Venus likes it exact and expensive. In the 1978 film his hideout under New York has a piano and a pool, and a plan to match.

  • Mars CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeLibra

    Libra Mars strikes with a plan, not a fist. In 1978 he finds the one rock that can weaken Superman and builds the trap around it.

What canon does give: a genius billionaire who cannot stand that an alien is the world's hero. A Libra answer is to win the argument in public first, then go after the hero's name.

How he shows up

Why he's like this

Libra is the sign of image, charm and winning the argument before the fight. Lex hits every one of them, in scenes fans know by heart.
