JAY-Z's Birth Chart: Sagittarius Sun

Rapper and businessman; Reasonable Doubt, The Blueprint, Roc Nation

"A strategic empire built on expansive foresight and precise execution."

The life of JAY-Z

Who is JAY-Z?

JAY-Z released Reasonable Doubt in June 1996 and has since built both a catalogue and a business empire, becoming hip-hop's first billionaire. The Blueprint appeared on 11 September 2001. He co-founded Roc-A-Fella Records and later Roc Nation, and married Beyoncé in April 2008. His later work documents wealth, marriage and fatherhood rather than the street narratives of the early records.

JAY-Z's birth chart

This is how a birth chart reads: the wheel plots JAY-Z's placements at the moment of birth, and the three below anchor everything else on this page. Try it on your own chart to run the same read on a chart of your own.

Elements, modalities and chart signature

Twelve systems read the same birth chart twelve different ways. Match your chart to see how yours lines up with JAY-Z's.

This is what a whole chart looks like at once, before it breaks into individual placements: where the element and modality weight sits, and how the four quadrants divide.
