Drake Birth Chart & Astrology — Scorpio Sun

Drake's Scorpio Sun and Scorpio Moon (likely) create an unusual double-Scorpio concentration — a chart profile that explains both the extraordinary emotional intensity of his music and the quality of obsessive depth that characterises his most celebrated albums. Double Scorpio in a popular music context produces the willingness to go to places of emotional exposure that most artists avoid.

☀ Sun sign: Scorpio

Scorpio is the sign of emotional depth, psychological intensity, and the willingness to examine what others prefer to leave unexamined. Drake's defining contribution to hip-hop and popular music has been precisely this: the willingness to discuss vulnerability, heartbreak, insecurity, and emotional ambivalence in a genre that had previously required a more armoured presentation. Scorpio Suns do not avoid complexity; they are drawn toward it.

☽ Moon sign: Scorpio (likely — birth time unconfirmed)

Scorpio Moon (likely — the Moon was in Scorpio for most of his birth date) doubles the emotional intensity of his Sun placement. Double Scorpio produces either extraordinary emotional self-knowledge or emotional turmoil, and Drake has documented both in his music. Scorpio Moon is also characterised by an excellent memory for emotional slights, and Drake's long-documented capacity for detailed lyrical responses to perceived disrespect is a textbook Scorpio Moon trait.

↑ Rising sign

Birth time not publicly confirmed — rising sign cannot be determined.

Key astrological themes

• Emotional vulnerability as artistic strength — Scorpio Sun

• Intensity in everything — Scorpio's all-or-nothing emotional register

Data accuracy note

Birth dates are drawn from publicly available records and are considered accurate. Sun signs are derived from the birth date and are certain. Moon signs marked confirmed are calculated from a documented birth time; those marked likely indicate the Moon was in that sign for most of the birth day, but may be different if the person was born near the Moon's sign change. Rising signs are only listed when a birth time has been publicly documented. We do not speculate on unconfirmed birth times.
