Magneto (Erik Lehnsherr): zodiac sign and birth chart
Magneto has no canon birthday. The comics, X-Men '97 and the Fox films never give one. Read from his personality, he's a Taurus, with Moon, rising and Mercury in the same sign: a man who does not move once he has decided, and who has carried the same promise since he was a boy. A Libra Mars adds the part that argues his case before the metal starts bending.

SourceNo canon birthday: Marvel's comics and handbooks give Erik Lehnsherr no date, and neither do X-Men '97 or the Fox films. The chart is NEBO's take, read from his personality.

NEBO's take
No birthday in canon. His personality says Taurus.
We ran Magneto 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: patient, heavy and impossible to talk out of a promise.

CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus
Taurus holds its ground. In the opening of the first X-Men film, a boy stretches his hands toward his parents and the camp gate buckles.
- Moon
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus
A Taurus Moon doesn't forget. In X-Men: First Class he spends years after the war hunting the people who ran the camp.
- Rising
CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeTaurus
No birth time in canon. First impression: calm, courteous and a lot more dangerous than the room realizes.
- Mercury
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus
Taurus thinks slowly and in long moves. He and Charles settle their biggest arguments over a chess board, in First Class and again in the first film.
- Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeNo clear pick
- Mars
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeLibra
Libra Mars wants the scales level. When both fleets fire on mutants in First Class, he turns every missile around.
What canon does give: a survivor who decided nobody would ever line his people up again. Taurus answers that by refusing to budge, and Libra by giving a speech about fairness before the first bolt of steel moves.

A gate that won't hold
As a boy in the camp, he reaches for his parents and the gate bends toward his hands. It is the first time anyone sees what he can do.
