Aerys II: zodiac sign and birth chart
Aerys II Targaryen has no canon birthday. Neither the books nor the show give one. Read from his personality, he's a Capricorn: the king who begins as an ambitious ruler with a Hand to match, then turns watchful and hard. A Cancer Moon and Mars make suspicion his default.

NEBO's take
No birthday in canon. Him personality says Capricorn.
We ran Aerys II through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets his most often. It reads his as a Capricorn: ambitious and controlling, with Cancer's suspicion eating at the edges.

CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCapricorn
Capricorn wants a firm hand on the realm. Aerys starts out hungry for order and a well-run kingdom.
- Moon
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCancer
A Cancer Moon needs safety. Over the years he feels threatened by his own lords and loses trust in nearly everyone.
- Rising
CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeAries
No birth time in canon. Aries rising is a sharp first impression: a king who reacts fast and hits first.

- Mars
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCancer
Cancer Mars defends with paranoia. His fear turns into harsh, suspicious action.
What canon does give: a king who began bright and ambitious and became suspicious and cruel. Capricorn wants control, and Cancer wants to feel safe. Together they make a bad pair.
How he shows up
Why he's like this
Capricorn is the sign of authority, and Aerys proves how authority can go wrong.
CoreCapricorn Sun
The Hand he trusted
Early in his reign Aerys relies on Tywin Lannister as Hand, and the realm runs smoothly for years.
A Song of Ice and Fire (backstory)
In a fightMars in Cancer
Wildfire under the city
Late in his reign he has caches of wildfire hidden under King's Landing, a king ready to burn the city rather than lose it.

FeelingsCancer Moon
Fear turns to cruelty
When Brandon and Rickard Stark come to King's Landing, Aerys has them killed instead of hearing them out. A king who trusts no one shows what he does with power.
