Leonardo DiCaprio: A Scorpio’s Quest to Save the Earth?

We know Leonardo DiCaprio from Titanic, The Beach, and The Wolf of Wall Street. He acts to perfection (and yet, he has only one Oscar!), but he also knows how to be serious. Very serious. Especially when it comes to saving the Earth and the environment. Indeed, Leonardo DiCaprio has played another role for several decades: that of a protector. But who is he really? And could this be linked to his astrological chart? Let’s explore!

In this article, we’ll focus on a few aspects of Leonardo DiCaprio’s birth chart. If you want to know yours, try our birth chart calculator!

A Meaningful Birth Date

The Titanic actor was born on November 11, 1974, in Los Angeles. According to various sources, his birth time is 2:47 AM. With such information, I could already conclude my article! People born on November 11 are connected to the energy of 11 in numerology, symbolizing inspiration and intuition. They have a strong vision and a deep desire to guide others. They are also sensitive, creative, and driven by causes greater than themselves. Sound familiar? To know more about this date, I highly recommend our dedicated article.

Leonardo DiCaprio: A Speaker for the Earth

Sun in Scorpio

To understand someone’s life philosophy, it’s important to know their Sun sign. The Sun sign represents the energy you radiate and the identity you embody. Leonardo was born under the sign of Scorpio. Although he grew up in Los Angeles, far from the countryside and nature, he quickly understood the human impact on the planet thanks to his visits to the Natural History Museum. This sensitivity inherent to the Scorpio Sun led him to create his own foundation.

At just 24 years old, in 1998, he founded the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation to support organizations and initiatives focused on sustainable development. The fact that he named the foundation after himself shows how fully committed he is and how much he believes in his positions. A true Scorpio behavior, proud of his actions! And we can say that he hasn’t changed his mind since, as the foundation has allocated over $60 million to projects such as coastal restoration in Somalia and the preservation of Brazil’s Atlantic Forest.

Moreover, the Sun in Scorpio makes him a charismatic individual whom others listen to. But, as you may say, that’s not all. If it were, all Scorpios would be environmental activists! And you’re right, his Sun sign isn’t the only trigger.

Mercury in Libra, Jupiter in Pisces

As I mentioned, being a Scorpio alone doesn’t save the Earth. Leonardo DiCaprio has benefited from several other aspects of his astrological chart. I’m referring to Mercury in Libra, which gives him an innate sense of communication, and Jupiter in Pisces, which gives him the courage to believe in his ideas no matter what.

In 2007, the actor took several steps and showed his ecological commitment. First, ahead of his time, he drove an electric car and equipped his house with solar panels. Then, during the Oscars ceremony, he took the stage with former vice president Al Gore to promote ecological practices in the Oscars production. Finally, that same year, he declared that fighting climate change was the number one challenge. This might seem trivial today, but don’t forget that in 2007, taking an ecological stance was much rarer.

In September 2014, the UN appointed Leonardo DiCaprio as a Messenger of Peace, with a focus on climate change. If you’d like to learn more, feel free to explore his actions. It’s likely that his Sun in Scorpio, Mercury in Libra, and Jupiter in Pisces have helped him become such a powerful spokesperson for saving the Earth.

Films Depicting the Earth as it Is Today

Leonardo DiCaprio plays roles on screen, and he has wanted to use his talent as a medium for conveying messages. Even when starring in political films by Scorsese, Eastwood, or Tarantino, he aimed to guide the audience towards something. But now, he uses cinema to openly share eco-friendly messages. But where does astrology fit into all this? Easy! Leonardo DiCaprio’s rising sign is Libra, which allows him to empathize with others. Even more? His Saturn in Cancer and Midheaven in Cancer give him heightened emotions and deep sensitivity. That’s all he needed to represent ecological challenges and social misery on screen.

In 2007 (again!), he produced The 11th Hour, a documentary that examines the state of the environment and solutions to restore the planetary ecosystem. Then in 2015, in The Revenant, he played a trapper who must survive in a wild environment. That same year, he contributed to the second version of the documentary Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret. In 2016, he co-produced Before the Flood, a film attempting to show that the planet can still be saved. Finally, in 2021, he starred in Don’t Look Up, a dark comedy in which a comet threatens to destroy the Earth in an era where humans no longer care about the environment. Most of these films are on Netflix, so take some hours to binge-watch them!

Leonardo DiCaprio: The Better Future

When I started working on this article, I didn’t expect to find so many astrological traits that explain Leonardo’s actions. What I’ve presented to you so far is just the tip of the iceberg! He has Mars in Scorpio (big challenges), Pluto in Libra (sense of justice), Uranus in Libra (search for peace), Neptune and North Node in Sagittarius (search for solutions). And above all, his Part of Fortune is in Scorpio. This aspect can be summarized as: “Like the legend of the phoenix, you are driven to build a better future on sound foundations risen from the ashes of what has come before.” Simply WOW!

It can be said that the stars have done their job well!

Indeed, as we’ve seen, Leonardo DiCaprio is not afraid of challenges, has a strong sense of justice, seeks social and climate peace, looks for solutions, and empowers organizations to develop their own. And, of course, he wants to save the Earth for a better future!

Leonardo DiCaprio: The Scorpio Who Wants to Save the Earth

Leonardo reflects, thinks, and acts to save the Earth, and his astrological chart is definitely part of the equation. Sun in Scorpio for charisma, Saturn in Cancer for sensitivity, Part of Fortune in Scorpio to change the world. And much more! Thank you for your actions!

By the way, did you know that a beetle (Grouvellinus leonardodicaprioi) and a spider (Spintharus leonardodicaprioi) were named after him? If that’s not proof of his commitment to saving the Earth!
