The record
What sets Andrew apart
Chadwick Boseman (1976) and Anna Faris (1976) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.
What the chart says
Andrew, according to the stars
Core essence
Andrew is the friend who says "let's just go" and means today. The core of Andrew is faith that the world is bigger and better than the room they are in, and a restlessness to go and check. They are honest to the point of it being a sport, funny by accident, and impossible to keep small. Freedom is not a preference, it is oxygen.
The vibe
Underneath, Andrew is steadier than they let on and more tender than they let on, both at once. The Moon in Capricorn feels deeply and privately, and would rather fix the problem than talk about the feeling. What Andrew needs to feel safe is reliability and respect. They soften completely for the people who earn it.
How Andrew wants to be loved
Andrew wants to be loved completely or not at all. Venus in Scorpio is intense, private and all in, and wants the same depth back: no games, no half measures. Trust is the whole thing. Be honest with Andrew even when it costs you, and they will be the most devoted person you have ever met.
How Andrew creates
How Andrew makes things happen: they refine it until it shines. A Yin Metal day master is jewellery, precise, aesthetic, particular about the finish. Andrew creates by polishing, by taste, by knowing exactly which detail makes the whole thing sing. Sensitive to being handled roughly, and worth handling well.
Instinct
Instinct: Andrew is bold, a Tiger year, and their gut reaction is to leap. Brave, generous, a bit dramatic, magnetic to be around, and never boring for a second. The Water year softens it: intuitive, adaptable, feeling their way through people.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 4 is the builder. Andrew is here to make things that last, to put structure under other people's dreams, to be trusted with the real work. Loyal, practical, honest, and learning that the plan can bend without breaking.
Triggers
Triggers: being ignored, or being made small. Mars in Leo means Andrew fights with pride and flair and needs the win to be seen. Generous in victory, dramatic in defeat, and never, ever petty for long. Give them the stage and the fire becomes warmth.

If you only read one paragraph
Sagittarius Sun
Sagittarius SunBlunt, cheerful, gone by morning.
Andrew McCarthy's Sun was in Sagittarius at the documented birth time. Traditional Sagittarius readings associate the sign with distance, belief and candour: travel, big questions and an answer given before it was asked for. Astrologers describe it as the mutable fire sign, ruled by Jupiter, and read it for optimism and appetite. The corresponding tension is overreach, with the classical caution that the horizon is more attractive than the ground underfoot.
Water Tiger
Water TigerBrave, bright, burns fast.
Andrew McCarthy was born on November 29, 1962, which falls in a Water Tiger year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Tiger readings emphasise courage, presence and the willingness to go first. The Chinese almanacs describe the Tiger as the sign others follow, bright and impulsive, at its best when the stakes are high. The corresponding caution in the tradition is burnout: a sign that burns brightly and, without pacing, burns out, with little left in reserve for the long middle of things.
Life Path 4
Life Path 4Plans, then plans the plan.
Andrew McCarthy's birth date, November 29, 1962, reduces to Life Path 4 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 4 readings associate the number with structure, patience and building: turning ideas into plans and plans into something that outlasts the mood that started it. Numerologists describe it as the path of the builder. The corresponding tension is rigidity, with the caution that the structure was meant to serve the life and not the reverse.

Andrew’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.
⚷ ChironPisces 6°13′ · House 6
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Pisces is read as a wound around boundaries and faith. The reading has Andrew absorbing more of a room than most, and needing somewhere to put it down.
⚳ CeresVirgo 10°26′ · House 12
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Virgo is read as nurture through usefulness: fixing, sorting, noticing. The reading has Andrew caring in practical detail rather than in words.
♡ ErosLibra 26°48′ · House 1
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Libra is read as desire for the beautiful and the mutual. Andrew is read as someone who wants the pairing itself as much as the person.
⚕ HygieaAquarius 29°38′ · House 5
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Aquarius is read as health through the unconventional: odd hours, own methods. Andrew is read as someone who ignores the standard advice and sometimes proves it wrong.
⚸ Black Moon LilithLibra 14°09′ · House 1
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Libra is read as the part of Andrew that will not keep the peace at the price of the self. Fairness, on these terms, is not the same as niceness.
Aspects to the asteroids and Lilith
Major aspects only, at a tight 3° orb.
- Black Moon Lilith conjunction Ascendant 0.2°
- Chiron square Sun 0.4°
- Hygiea sextile Moon 0.7°
- Chiron opposition Uranus 1.0°
- Ceres square Mercury 1.6°
- Ceres conjunction Pluto 1.7°
- Chiron conjunction Jupiter 1.8°
- Ceres sextile Venus 2.1°
- Chiron square Mercury 2.6°
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°).
Andrew’s dominant planets
Scored from rulerships, dispositors, angularity and aspect count under the method below.
1. ♃ Jupiter10 pts
rules the Sun sign, Sagittarius; disposes Sun, Mercury; 5 major aspects
2. ♇ Pluto8 pts
disposes Venus, Neptune; 6 major aspects
3. ☿ Mercury7 pts
disposes Uranus, Pluto; 5 major aspects
A Jupiter-led chart is read as scale and optimism leading: Andrew is read as reaching for the bigger version of any plan.
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.
