Kylie Jenner's zodiac sign and birth chart: a Leo Sun, a Scorpio Moon and Capricorn rising

What is Kylie Jenner's zodiac sign?

Born on August 10, 1997, in Los Angeles, California, Kylie Jenner is a Leo. The media personality and beauty entrepreneur has the Sun in Leo for the whole of her birth day, so the sign is not in question. Leo is a fixed fire sign ruled by the Sun itself, and tradition associates it with warmth, confidence, generosity and a flair for presentation. Astrologers describe Leo as the sign of the performer and the host: it wants to make something, put a name on it and share it. Loyalty and pride run high in the classic description. The usual shadow side is a need for applause and a hard time being overlooked.

Moon sign

Her Moon is in Scorpio, and it holds whatever the time of birth that day, so this placement would stand even without a recorded hour. Astrologers read a Scorpio Moon as intense, private and deeply loyal, with feelings that run well below what shows on the surface. Leo and Scorpio are both fixed signs, which is why the textbook reading of this pair is determination twice over: a bright, outward-facing Sun and a guarded, strategic Moon. The two signs sit at a right angle in the zodiac, and tradition treats that as productive friction more than comfort.

Venus and Mars

Venus and Mars are slow enough to keep their signs for the entire birth day. Venus in Virgo is traditionally read as love shown through attention and usefulness: noticing the details, fixing the problem, having exacting taste. Astrologers place Venus in its fall in Virgo, meaning the planet of pleasure is working in a sign that would sooner edit than indulge. Mars in Libra is read as drive that works through partnership, aesthetics and strategy, pushing by persuasion instead of force. Taken together, the tradition sees a polished, considered style behind the showier Leo Sun.

Rising sign

Capricorn, on the recorded birth time. Astro-Databank, the archive astrologers use for birth data, lists 5:25 pm with a Rodden rating of AA. That is the top grade on the scale, used when the time comes from a birth certificate or birth record, and it makes this one of the celebrity rising signs that rests on a document. Capricorn rising is traditionally read as a composed, businesslike first impression: reserved, ambitious and steady, with Saturn as the chart ruler. The one caveat is built into the method. A rising sign is exactly as good as the time behind it, so this one stands on the recorded time and would change if that record were ever corrected. The Big Three guide shows how a Leo Sun, Scorpio Moon and Capricorn rising are read as a set.

Is Kylie Jenner into astrology?

She has referred to her sign, and that is not the same as following astrology. Her 2016 birthday make-up collection included a lip shade named Leo, after her sign. That is a product named after her sign; we found no statement that she follows astrology, reads charts or checks horoscopes. So the record supports one modest conclusion, that she knows she is a Leo and has used it publicly, and nothing beyond it.
