Al Roker’s AsterNym identity
The Steadfast Lightkeeper
Earth represents stability. Earth-led charts are associated with patience, responsibility and the ability to make people or projects feel supported. Life Path 11 is traditionally called a master path. It represents intuition, sensitivity and noticing patterns before they become obvious.

The record
What sets Al Roker apart
Andrew Garfield (1983) and Amy Adams (1974) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.
What the chart says
Al Roker, according to the stars
Core essence
Al Roker is warm the way the sun is warm: not trying, just doing it. The core of Al Roker is a big open heart and a need to be seen loving with it. They are generous with praise, with time, with the spotlight when they trust you, and they will remember every kindness you paid them for years. Loyal to a fault, and glad of the fault.
The vibe
Underneath, Al Roker is calm in a way that steadies other people. The Moon in Taurus wants comfort that can be touched: the same mug, the same song, the friend who does not need explaining to. What Al Roker needs to feel safe is consistency. Show up the same way twice and you are in.
How Al Roker wants to be loved
Al Roker wants to be loved beautifully. Venus is at home in Libra: romance, manners, the date that was actually planned, a partner who is fair and easy to be around. Al Roker gives a lot of grace and needs it back. Treat them like a partner in everything, including the small choices, and they bloom.
How Al Roker creates
How Al Roker makes things happen: they are the ground everyone else stands on. A Yang Earth day master is the mountain, reliable, slow to move, immovable once it has. Al Roker creates by holding: the plan, the people, the standard. They are trusted before they have said a word, and the work is remembering that mountains are allowed to want things too.
Instinct
Instinct: Al Roker is free-spirited, a Horse year, and their gut reaction is to run toward the new thing. Energetic, warm, popular, honest to a fault, and impossible to keep indoors. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 11 is the visionary, a master number. Al Roker is here to see what others cannot yet and to say it, an antenna for the mood of the moment. Intuitive, inspiring, sometimes overwhelmed by their own sensitivity, and learning to ground the vision in something real.
Triggers
Triggers: being fenced in, and being lied to. Mars in Sagittarius fights loud, laughs it off, and is genuinely fine ten minutes later. Al Roker has boundless energy for anything with a horizon in it and none for the small print. Aim them at something far away and step back.

You likely weigh most decisions but can move fast when it matters.
You may wear your feelings openly. What you feel tends to show.
You may want to resolve tension the moment it appears, rather than let it sit.
You may be drawn to big possibilities. The practical follows after the vision.

No public birth time is available, so this is a 9:00 p.m. reference evening sky for that date and place. It is connected to the night of birth; it is not the sky at the birth minute, and no other reading on this page uses that time. Dedications are commemorative AsterNym records and do not rename or confer ownership of stars.
Leo Sun
Leo SunThe room rearranges itself.
Al Roker's Sun was in Leo for the whole of August 20, 1954, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Leo readings associate the sign with warmth, visibility and generosity: a natural claim on attention and a habit of handing it back as encouragement. Astrologers describe it as the fixed fire sign, ruled by the Sun. The corresponding tension is pride, with the classical caution that the need to be seen can crowd out people who would rather not be.
Wood Horse
Wood HorseRuns free, catches feelings anyway.
Al Roker was born on August 20, 1954, which falls in a Wood Horse year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Horse readings emphasise energy, independence and movement: a sign happiest with somewhere to go and impatient with fences. The Chinese almanacs describe the Horse as sociable, quick and difficult to keep in one place. The corresponding caution in the tradition is inconstancy, and the habit of leaving before the work of staying has begun.
Life Path 11
Life Path 11Sees what the rest missed.
Al Roker's birth date, August 20, 1954, reduces to Life Path 11 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 11 readings treat the number as a master path, associated with intuition, sensitivity and noticing patterns before they become obvious. Numerologists read it as an intensified 2: the partner's gifts under pressure. The corresponding tension is nervous strain, with the caution that perceiving more than most people can be exhausting to carry.
What stands out in Al Roker’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Al Roker's date-only chart is Neptune sextile Pluto, with an orb of under 1°.
- Three planets, Sun, Mercury and Pluto, sit together in Leo, which astrologers call a stellium.
- Five of the ten planets fall in Fixed signs, making Fixed the strongest modality in this chart.
- Al Roker combines an Earth Day Master in BaZi with a fixed Sun and a Life Path on the intuitive plane, the combination AsterNym calls The Steadfast Lightkeeper.
Al Roker’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Al Roker, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 12° to 27° Taurus depending on the hour. The wheel's houses are a solar chart, counted from the Sun's sign, because the Ascendant needs a time.
No birth time, so the houses are a solar chart: the Sun’s sign counts as house 1. A documented time would place them from the Ascendant instead.

Al Roker’s Chiron, Ceres, Eros, Hygiea and Lilith
Four minor bodies and the mean lunar apogee, placed in the same tropical zodiac as the planets above. None of these feed the chart signature, the rarity score or any ranking on this site: they are listed for readers who use them. Chiron, Ceres, Eros and Hygiea positions come from JPL Horizons; Black Moon Lilith is the mean apogee, the point most published Lilith tables use. The readings are the modern tradition’s, not AsterNym’s. Without a birth time the degree is the noon value and the day's movement is shown alongside it.
⚷ Chiron ℞Capricorn 24°04′ (moves 0.04° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Capricorn is read as a wound around recognition and authority. Al Roker is read as someone who earns standing the long way and does not fully trust it when it arrives.
⚳ CeresLibra 22°59′ (moves 0.37° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Libra is read as nurture through fairness and company. Al Roker is read as someone who feeds others by keeping the peace and the balance.
♡ ErosSagittarius 2°42′ (moves 0.38° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Sagittarius is read as desire for the far-off and the free. The reading has Al Roker attracted to people who open a door rather than close one.
⚕ HygieaLeo 29°39′ (moves 0.37° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Leo is read as vitality that runs on purpose and recognition. The reading has Al Roker at their best with something to be proud of.
⚸ Black Moon LilithScorpio 7°25′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio is read as power the person has stopped apologising for. Al Roker is read as someone others project onto, and who has learnt to let them.
Aspects to the asteroids and Lilith
Major aspects only, at a tight 3° orb. The Moon is left out because its position moves 13° across an untimed day.
- Chiron square Neptune 0.2°
- Hygiea trine Mars 0.8°
- Ceres conjunction Neptune 0.9°
- Chiron opposition Uranus 1.4°
- Ceres sextile Pluto 1.8°
- Ceres square Uranus 2.4°
- Hygiea conjunction Sun 2.6°
- Ceres sextile Mercury 2.9°
Method: JPL Horizons heliocentric vectors, 1700–2100, cubic Hermite interpolation; geocentric, true ecliptic of date, tropical; geometric (no light-time or aberration); Lilith = mean lunar apogee (Chapront/Meeus mean perigee + 180°).
Al Roker’s dominant planets
Scored from rulerships, dispositors and aspect count. Without a birth time there is no Ascendant or house to score, and the Moon's sign is left out where it could change with the hour.
1. ☉ Sun11 pts
rules the Sun sign, Leo; in its own sign, Leo; disposes Mercury, Pluto; 4 major aspects
2. ♆ Neptune5 pts
5 major aspects
3. ♇ Pluto5 pts
disposes Saturn; 4 major aspects
A Sun-led chart is read as identity out front: Al Roker is read as someone whose sense of self organises everything else.
How the score is built
- Rules the Sun sign, Moon sign or Ascendant sign: 3 points each (traditional co-rulers of Scorpio, Aquarius and Pisces score half).
- Sits in a sign it rules: 2 points.
- Disposes another planet (that planet sits in a sign it rules): 1 point each.
- Angular: 2 points in the first or tenth house, 1 point in the fourth or seventh (timed births only).
- Every major aspect it makes: 1 point.
Dominance scoring is an AsterNym method. Other sites weight differently and can name a different leader for the same chart.
Configurations in Al Roker’s chart
Closed shapes among the ten planets under the site’s one aspect-orb policy. The Moon is excluded without a birth time, so a shape that needs it is not claimed.
Stellium in Leo · Sun, Mercury, PlutoThree or more planets in one sign (four, or three with a luminary, by AsterNym's count): a concentration astrologers read as that sign's themes dominating the chart.
Minor aspects
semi-sextile 30° (orb 2°), semi-square 45° (orb 2°), quintile 72° (orb 1.5°), sesquiquadrate 135° (orb 2°), biquintile 144° (orb 1.5°), quincunx 150° (orb 2.5°). Pairs already in a major aspect are not repeated. Moon excluded without a birth time.
- Sun semi-square Venus 0.4°
- Mercury semi-sextile Uranus 0.5°
- Uranus semi-sextile Pluto 0.7°
- Mercury semi-square Venus 1.6°
- Sun semi-sextile Uranus 1.7°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Al Roker, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

Where this data comes from
Al Roker’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q3240869, released under CC0, as do the occupations, works, teams and awards in the biography above. No documented birth time is available, so this chart is rated X on the Rodden scale, the astrological convention for how well evidenced a birth time is. Time-dependent results use a clearly labelled reference time and should not be read as their exact birth chart. Entries are matched to Wikidata by entity id rather than by name, kept only at day precision, and dropped where sources disagree on the date.
