Birthday

Sailor Neptune’s birthday is March 6th making her a Pisces. Pisces is ruled in astrology by the planet Neptune.

Pisces in Astrology

Pisces are empathetic, artistic and compassionate people. They are intuitive and love being alone with their thoughts. Visual media, music and writing are just some of the ways that Pisces love to express themselves. They often put the needs of their friends in front of their needs. They are loyal, devoted and compassionate. Since their element is water, they can easily become swallowed by their emotions and adore exploring their boundless imaginations. Because of this, they expect others to be open to them as they are.

Neptune in Astrology

Neptune is the celestial body that governs our creativity and dreams, but also illusions and escapism. Think of Neptune as the sea: mystery and magical, but when thick fog drifts over the sea, it is hard to see what is real or even where the horizon is. Neptune could cloud our judgment and make it hard to separate our imagination from our reality or escape into our imagination when reality is too hard to deal with. If you have a strong Neptune, you may work in the arts. Maybe you’re a writer, a musician or painter!

Astrology Colours

teal, blue, turquoise

Did You Know?

Sailor Neptune appears to be the only one who was awaken to her senshi powers without help from someone else (e.g., Sailor Moon was awakened by Luna). According to her prologue , her memory awoke in the form of dreams. Pisces are known for their intuitions and seem to work best in their subconscious such as their dreams or through meditation. She did not need anyone to help her awaken. The power of a Pisces’ subconscious was strong enough to do it on its own.

Haruka Tenoh (Amara in America)

Birthday

Sailor Uranus’ birthday is January 27th making her an Aquarius. Aquarius is ruled in astrology by the planet Uranus.

Aquarius in Astrology

Aquariuses are humanitarians and revolutionary thinkers making them rebels at heart. They despise authority or social norms that limits one’s individuality, which is very important to them. That is because they are eccentric free spirits that may aspire to change the world through radical (and possibly) social actions. With their non-conformist attitudes, they could possibly have an unconventional fashion style and unusual types of hobbies. And they like it that way. This may make them stubborn, since they are a fixed sign, but when there’s something strong to stand for like a friend, they won’t back down!

Uranus in Astrology

Uranus in astrology represents the need to change, be different and move forward. That is easily seen in the fact that it’s the only planet in our solar system that spins vertically, not horizontally. Uranus struggles with traditions of the past and instead chooses individuality, innovation and looking to the future for change. This where technology and inventions fall into. This planet tells us to not follow only society, but to follow who we are as individuals. Chances are that if you have a strong Uranus energy in your astrology chart, you could be interested in things such as entrepreneurship.

Astrology Colours

electric blue, yellow, white/lilac

Did You Know?

Small funny fact. In Uranus’ premiere episode, due to her appearance dressing in male clothing and personality (such as being a biker), many of the other sailor scouts, especially Sailor Moon, ended up having a major crush on her before realizing that she was a girl! It probably did not help that Haruka is a lesbian.

Sailor Saturn’s birthday is January 6th making her a Capricorn. Capricorn is ruled in astrology by the planet Saturn.

Capricorn in Astrology

Capricorns have a fierce drive for success. With their ruling planet, Saturn (a.k.a., the Taskmaster), they are patient, disciplined, strong-minded and mature as hell. They are always on their A-game. They love a challenge and working hard like their animal symbol, a goal walking up a mountain. They can also be extremely generous, however, sweeping in heroically for their loved ones. Their ambition and desire for what is good and right makes them admirable, if not an inspiration! Don’t be surprised if you see a lot of Capricorn entrepreneurs or CEO’s!

Saturn in Astrology

If the moon was our “mother” in the sky, Saturn would be our “father”. It is known as the “taskmaster”. It is our other social planet influencing us externally forcing us to work accordingly internally. It represents structure, authority (e.g., parents, teachers and community leaders), our own internal authority and how we learn to set different boundaries with different people in our lives. It takes Saturn almost 30 years to circle the sun and in astrology, it is a special time when Saturn returns to the same part of the sky as when you are born. This is called a “Saturn Return”.

Sailor Saturn’s Silence Glaive weapon was inspired by the Roman God, Saturn who was the God of agriculture (and time). He wielded a long scythe that he used to cut down grain and bring in the harvest, making space for new crops. Thus he is also associated with destruction and rebirth. Sailor Saturn is actually able to use her weapon to destroy a planet with one sweep to make space for a planet to reform or “reset”.
