James Eugene Carrey (; born January 17, 1962) is a Canadian and American actor and comedian. Known primarily for his energetic slapstick performances, he has received two Golden Globe Awards, in addition to nominations for BAFTA Awards and Screen Actors Guild Awards. After spending the 1980s honing his comedy act and playing supporting roles in films, Carrey gained recognition when he was cast in the American sketch comedy television series In Living Color (1990–1994). He broke out as a film star after starring in a string of box office hits, such as Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, The Mask, Dumb and Dumber (all 1994), Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, and Batman Forever (both 1995). The success of these five films led to Carrey being the first comic actor to receive an upfront $20 million salary for performing in films, beginning with The Cable Guy (1996).

Birth details come from a recorded or documented source (source: The Times Select Horoscopes), so this chart is reliable to the day, though the birth time is not recorded.
Computed with Swiss Ephemeris (Lahiri ayanamsa). Exact birth time is not publicly recorded, so noon local time was used. The Moon changes Nakshatra about once a day, so the Nakshatra and Ascendant shown may differ if the true birth time is different.
Our library holds 666 Hollywood personalities with a computed Vedic chart from reliable birth data. 60 of them (9%) have the Moon in Taurus, like Jim Carrey, and 27 (4%) share the Mrigashira Nakshatra — the #8 most common Moon Nakshatra among Hollywood personalities, where Dhanishta leads with 31 (5%).
For scale, an even spread would put about 3.7% in each of the 27 Nakshatras and 8.3% in each Moon sign. These are simple counts from our dataset, not a prediction.
