When Is Megan Fox’s Birthday?
Megan Fox’s birthday is May 16.
Megan Fox’s Sun Sign Is In Sensual Taurus
•The Sun represents the essence of your personality, your main character energy•
Megan Fox was born on May 16, 1986, in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Her astrological sign is Taurus.
Taurus is an earthy sign typically associated with animal instinct and nature. Ruled by the bull, Taurus is known to be persistent and determined, a potentially stubborn fixed sign that can really drive its hooves in the sand when provoked. Tauruses absolutely hate to be rushed, preferring to operate on their own time and urgency. They’re also known for their artistry and creativity (it’s a sign ruled by Venus after all!).
Megan Fox’s Taurus Sun is located in her fourth house of home and family, making her a domestic goddess (certainly more of a homebody than might imagine upon first glance)! As a fourth house Taurus Sun, it’s important to curate a peaceful and quiet space to maintain one’s sanity. Ultimately, Megan would rather snuggle up with a good throw blanket, candles lit with a book in hand, versus a loud social Hollywood event.
As the fourth house is associated with Cancer energy, Megan is known to be notoriously private when it comes to exposing her children to the spotlight (she’s been on the receiving end of public criticism around her children’s absence on her social media).
The fourth house is also known as the “midnight” part of the chart , reflecting potential night owl tendencies. Fun fact: Megan met her on-and-off-again partner, MGK (Machine Gun Kelly), on the set of the movie Midnight in the Switchgrass—how’s that for some cute astrology symbolism?
Megan Fox’s Moon Is In Playful Leo
•Your moon sign governs the “inner you” and influences your emotions•
As a Leo moon, Megan Fox can’t help but naturally embody gravitas, just like the Sun, people can’t seem to get enough of her. Leo moons are innately sensitive and creative beings with a burning passion for play and grand romantic gestures. With her Leo moon, Megan is a natural leader who leads with her heart and inspires those around her.
It’s important to note that Megan’s Leo moon forms a challenging aspect to her natal Sun, known as a square. Squares aren’t necessarily bad, however, Megan might certainly find her emotions (moon) getting challenged by her ego (Sun). Her Leo moon could lead her down more turbulent and dramatic paths that could disrupt the peace and stability her Taurus Sun craves; logic versus emotion are in need of serious integration.
Megan’s Leo moon is located in her seventh house of partnership. With her Leo moon in the house usually linked with relationships and marriage, Megan might feel more comfortable being herself in a trusted relationship than she is alone. Given the aforementioned square, however, she could struggle to navigate the balance between catering to her own sanity versus getting sucked into someone’s pretty boy orbit.
Megan Fox’s Rising Sign Is Tough-As-Nails Capricorn
•Your rising sign, or ascendant, is the first impression you make. Like a filter, it “tints” your Sun sign•
Megan Fox is a Capricorn Rising. Capricorn Risings are naturally ambitious and incredibly resilient, the types to weather intense storms in their ascent up mountains. They tend to be perceived as stoic and poised, a tough veneer masking some deep sensitivity.
As a Capricorn Rising, Megan naturally assumes a wise elder quality; Capricorns are traditionally known as the elders of the zodiac, full of poignant advice given the tough lessons they’ve had to navigate throughout their lives. Sometimes that relentless Capricorn energy can overwhelm the native with intense self-criticism and pessimism.
Megan has previously gotten candid about her self-image, telling Sports Illustrated magazine in 2023 that she suffers from body dysmorphia and notes the tumultuous relationship she’s had with her body ever since she was a young girl.
Mars Shapes Megan Fox’s Perceived Identity
•Venus and Mars are the love planets in astrology. In your birth chart, Venus represents seduction and romance while Mars represents lust, motivation and erotic instincts.
Mars, the planet of lust, assertion, and action, happens to sit right on Megan Fox’s ascendant, imbuing her rising sign with a more forceful (and sexual) disposition than a traditional Capricorn rising would otherwise. Mars is aggressive, certainly, but unafraid to go after what it wants and willing to cut the necessary ties to do so.
It makes sense that Megan Fox was frequently cast as the beautiful mean girl early in her career: her role in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen comes to mind, before she broke out as a superstar sex symbol in the Transformers franchise and the cult classic, Jennifer’s Body. Mars can certainly describe desire and centers the male gaze, especially in Capricorn, traditionally associated with machismo.
However, Mars can also indicate antagonization and challenges in the chart. The idea that Megan Fox assumed her sex symbol armor (Mars) to navigate the tumultuous terrain of Hollywood, only to have that identity made into a public debate (Mars) around the sexualization of actresses (that initially turned against her) makes a lot of sense. While her armor was necessary, it ultimately carried her identity farther away from her actual innate self, her hidden Taurus Sun insulated in the depths of her chart and away from public scrutiny.
Megan Fox’s Chart Ruler Reveals Limitations and Frustrations
•Your chart ruler is the planet that rules over your rising sign•
As a Capricorn Rising, Megan Fox’s chart is ruled by her Saturn in Sagittarius. Think of chart rulers like your personal avatar in the movie of your life. With Saturn at the helm of Megan’s chart, her identity is flavored by the ringed planet’s cool and seemingly reserved nature.
Saturn is the planet of discipline and boundaries, as well as limitations and frustrations. Saturn can very much be a tough love planet, challenging you to take a stand for something you believe in and committing to it for the long-term. On the other hand, Saturn can describe your fears and where difficulty lies in the chart in your quest for mastery.
Meanwhile Sagittarius is the zodiac sign associated with themes like religion, personal experience and personal truths. Sagittarius is the philosopher here to expand its horizons as it searches for the meaning of life with no regrets—which can involve a deep study of metaphysics and astrology, as undertaken by Megan.
Megan’s Saturn in Sagittarius is located in her eleventh house of fans and social networks, indicative of potential reality checks and frustrations endured at the hands of the collective. Following immense public scrutiny, Megan had previously taken time off doing press, instead choosing to go on a spiritual quest in order to make peace with the past. In an interview with GQ magazine, she noted that she realized it was all a lesson; that “there was purpose in it”—echoes of Saturn (time) Sagittarius (spiritual quest and lesson/purpose).
Love Astrology of Megan Fox: Not So Straightforward
•Venus and Mars are the love planets in astrology. In your birth chart, Venus represents seduction and romance while Mars represents lust, motivation and erotic instincts.
Mars and Venus form a relatively complicated aspect known as a quincunx in Megan Fox’s chart. She has Mars in Capricorn to go along with Venus in Gemini, making her love life rather interesting and not so straightforward given the elemental incongruity; these elements tend to have a hard time seeing eye-to-eye.
Capricorn is earthy and pragmatic, strategic about investing in love and relationships, while Gemini is airy and curious, with a desire for intellectual stimulation and excitement. Capricorn moves intentionally and slowly while Gemini is off to the races and back again. You can see where tensions might surface with this romantic configuration.
Megan was most recently in the spotlight for her relationship with MGK (Machine Gun Kelly). At the time of writing, it is unclear if they are officially back together following their unofficial separation in 2023. In an interview with Call Her Daddy podcast, however, Megan shared that “being in this relationship—it’s not for public consumption.” She continued, however, to refer to him as her twin soul and said that “there will always be a tether to him, no matter what.”
Twin soul with her Venus in Gemini, hmm, sounds about right! Megan and MGK ultimately have a spicy and dynamic synastry underscored by an innate understanding of one another. Both are Taurus Suns, incredibly sensual beings with an intrinsic animal instinct. They are immensely creative together, producing works of art away from the public spotlight—which suits their Taurus Sun selves just fine! With Megan’s in the fourth house and MGK’s in his twelfth house, they would much prefer remaining out of the spotlight in the privacy of their intimacy; comfort is found in each other’s arms.
MGK has his Venus and Mars in Pisces, creating some interesting challenges for Megan’s Venus in Gemini while also complimenting her Mars in Capricorn. MGK could potentially find himself getting caught up in delusion or escapism (as well as boundaries blurring), posing some conflict with Megan’s inherent long-term commitment and serious approach to relationships.

Megan Fox’s South Node Is In Relationship-Oriented Libra
•Astrologers use the nodes of the moon (found opposite each other in your birth chart) to determine where your destiny lies (North node) and what you were in past lifetimes (South node).
Megan Fox has her South Node (past-life karma) in Libra and her North Node (destiny) in Aries. Megan is here to unlearn innate social politeness and self-censorship, especially in the context of her relationships.
She’s not here to make herself small or accommodate the prevailing social decorum, she’s here to pursue her own path and define her identity on her terms. Having a North Node in Aries, Megan is learning courage and the ability to empower herself; she’s here to unabashedly speak the truth and break free from existing relationship norms.
With her North Node in Aries in her third house of writing and perspective, Megan courageously debuted her book of poems, Pretty Boys are Poisonous, in 2023. The book’s description reads: “Fox chronicles all the ways in which we fit ourselves into the shape of the ones we love, even if it means losing ourselves in the process”—a true manifestation of the karmic lesson she was here to learn.
