Three planets retrograde: Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus. Paul Robeson and Gary Cooper have the same set, 1 chart in 120 here.

What the chart says

In astrology, a Scorpio Sun reads as intense and private, an Aries Moon as bold and first to act: a 150° gap astrologers call awkward, two parts that need translating, the same pair Alain Delon carries. By the book, Mars in Aquarius + Mercury in Scorpio + Jupiter in Aries reads as someone who rebels on principle, reads between the lines and grows by going first. Elements run water 47%, fire 40%, air 9%, earth 5%, fixed first at 60%, the nearest mix to Stromae.
