Jeff Bezos birth chart without a birth time

Updated Markdown

Founder of Amazon and Blue Origin. Birth announcements in 1964 newspapers confirm the date and hospital but give no time, so the chart is cast for noon.

Jeff Bezos, born Jeffrey Preston Jorgensen, came into the world on January 12, 1964, in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He took the name Bezos later, when he was adopted by his stepfather Miguel "Mike" Bezos. The birth time is unknown, so the chart is cast for noon. Capricorn is its strongest sign, and its tightest aspects gather around the nodal axis.

What is known and what is not

All sources agree on the date and city: the CNN fact sheet, Wikidata and Astro-Databank. The documents closest to the event were found by data collector Sy Scholfield: birth announcements in The Albuquerque Tribune of January 13, 1964, and the Albuquerque Journal of January 14, 1964. They give the date, January 12, and the hospital, Bataan Memorial Methodist Hospital, but no hour. We found no statement from Bezos or his mother about the time of birth.

The main chart therefore carries a Rodden rating of X: date without time. There are two versions of the time, and both are rectifications, an astrologer's choice of time fitted to life events, not a record:

  • 11:33: a rectification by astrologer Metin Özenbaş (Infinity Astrological Magazine, 2018), quoted by Astrotheme with a DD rating. Aries Ascendant;
  • 15:52: a rectification by Isaac Starkman, mentioned by Astro-Databank. Cancer Ascendant.

The two rectifications put the Ascendant in different signs and neither rests on a source, so we draw no houses.

The chart is cast for 12:00 Mountain Standard Time (UTC-7); there was no daylight saving time in January. The coordinates are those of central Albuquerque: the hospital is in the same city, and for a chart without a time the difference does not matter. There are no houses, Ascendant or MC (more on charts without a birth time). The Moon's sign is open: that day the Moon moved from Sagittarius into Capricorn.

A stellium in Capricorn

The Sun at 21°36′ Capricorn, a retrograde Mercury at 5°02′ Capricorn and Mars at 29°38′ Capricorn form a stellium. Tradition links Capricorn with long-range strategy, discipline and the building of structures meant to outlast their founders. Classical astrology counts Mars as exalted in Capricorn: energy is not scattered but goes into a plan and endurance. Here Mars sits on the last degree of the sign, on the edge of Aquarius.

Astrologers read a retrograde Mercury here as a mind that returns to an idea to test it.

Venus and Saturn in Aquarius

Venus at 24°41′ Aquarius and Saturn at 21°39′ Aquarius form a conjunction with an orb of 3°01′. In the classical scheme Saturn is in its own domicile in Aquarius. The Sun and Saturn form a semisextile with an orb of 0°03′, one of the tightest aspects in the chart, so Saturn is closely tied to the solar theme even from the next sign.

Tradition reads a Venus-Saturn conjunction as a serious, long-term attitude to values and commitments, and Aquarius adds an interest in the new, in technology and in networks of people. Saturn also squares Neptune at 17°27′ Scorpio with an orb of 4°12′.

The Nodes, Chiron, Uranus and Pluto

The tightest major aspect in the chart is the North Node at 11°14′ Cancer in trine to Chiron at 11°29′ Pisces, orb 0°14′. Jupiter at 11°58′ Aries squares the North Node with an orb of 0°43′.

Opposite Chiron stand Uranus at 9°43′ Virgo and Pluto at 14°02′ Virgo, a Uranus-Pluto conjunction in Virgo shared by people born in the mid-1960s. Uranus is in opposition to Chiron with an orb of 1°45′, and Pluto opposes Chiron with an orb of 2°33′. Both planets sextile the North Node: Uranus with an orb of 1°31′, Pluto with an orb of 2°47′. The Node becomes the point that links both ends of the opposition through soft aspects.

Modern astrology sees the North Node as a direction of growth, and soft contacts to it as a route by which the tension of an opposition can be turned into work.

Mars quintiles

Mars forms a quintile to Jupiter with an orb of 0°20′ and a quintile to Neptune with an orb of 0°10′, while Jupiter and Neptune are biquintile with an orb of 0°31′. The result is a triangle of fifth-harmonic aspects. Astrologers link the quintile with talent, inventiveness and a personal style of work. Here that harmonic joins Mars, the planet of action, with Jupiter, the planet of expansion, and Neptune, the planet of imagination.
