What the chart says
Antony, according to the stars
Core essence
Antony is the steady one, the person whose yes means yes and whose Sunday looks the same as it did last year because it was a good Sunday. The core of Antony is a deep loyalty to what is real: good food, a good bed, people who show up. They move slowly on purpose. Once they have decided something, it is decided, and that is a comfort to everyone around them.
The vibe
Underneath, Antony needs to be adored a little, and there is nothing wrong with that. The Moon in Leo feels things dramatically and generously and wants them noticed. What Antony needs to feel safe is to be chosen out loud: the compliment said in front of people, the text that says you were thinking of them. They repay it tenfold.
How Antony wants to be loved
Antony wants to be loved like home. Venus in Cancer needs to feel safe before it feels anything else, and then it feels everything. Remember the small things, meet the family, make the tea. Antony gives care in a hundred quiet ways and needs to know it is noticed. Consistency is the romance.
How Antony creates
How Antony makes things happen: they cut to it. A Yang Metal day master is the sword, decisive, principled, allergic to nonsense. Antony creates by clarifying, by deciding, by being the one who says what the thing actually is. Sharp with themselves first. The work is remembering that not every problem needs a blade.
Instinct
Instinct: Antony is quick, clever and alert, a Rat year, and their gut reaction to a problem is to find the angle nobody has tried. Charming, resourceful, a little bit of a hoarder of good things and good people. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 5 is the free spirit. Antony is here to explore, to change, to taste everything and report back. Adventure, variety and freedom are not distractions from their purpose, they are it. The lesson is choosing, sometimes, and staying.
Triggers
Triggers: being told "because that's how it's done." Mars in Aquarius fights for the idea, the group, the principle, rarely for themselves. Antony goes cool and distant rather than hot, and then does the surprising thing. Point them at a cause and they will rewrite the rules around it.

Antony Hewish in 15 seconds
Taurus Sun
Taurus SunComfort first, then everything else.
Antony Hewish's Sun was in Taurus for the whole of May 11, 1924, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Taurus readings associate the sign with steadiness, sensory pleasure and things that last. Astrologers describe it as the fixed earth sign, ruled by Venus, and read it for loyalty, routine and a slow, deliberate pace. The corresponding tension is resistance to change, described in the tradition as stubbornness that presents itself as principle.
Wood Rat
Wood RatFinds the shortcut every time.
Antony Hewish was born on May 11, 1924, which falls in a Wood Rat year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Rat readings emphasise quickness, resourcefulness and an eye for the opening nobody else has noticed. The Chinese almanacs describe the Rat as the strategist of the cycle, first in the order because it saw the shortcut. The corresponding caution in the tradition is scatter: too many angles worked at once, and charm spent where patience was needed.
Life Path 5
Life Path 5Freedom over comfort, always.
Antony Hewish's birth date, May 11, 1924, reduces to Life Path 5 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 5 readings associate the number with freedom, change and variety: movement, new experience and resistance to restrictive routine. Numerologists describe it as the path of the traveller, adaptable and restless. The corresponding tension is instability, with the caution that constant motion can become a way of avoiding commitment to any one direction.
What stands out in Antony’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Antony Hewish's date-only chart is Sun sextile Uranus, with an orb of under 1°.
- Five of the ten planets fall in Fixed signs, making Fixed the strongest modality in this chart.
- This chart has an even Fire/Water emphasis, with three planets in each.
- Antony Hewish combines a Metal Day Master in BaZi with a fixed Sun and a Life Path on the physical plane, the combination AsterNym calls The Gilded Architect.
Antony’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Antony Hewish, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 6° to 19° Leo 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.

Antony’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.
⚷ ChironAries 22°17′ (moves 0.05° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Aries is read as a sore spot around asserting oneself: Antony may have learnt early that going first costs something, and built a way of leading that does not need permission.
⚳ CeresAries 12°44′ (moves 0.36° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Aries is read as nurture through action: Antony looks after people by pushing them forward and expects the same in return.
♡ Eros ℞Libra 18°33′ (moves 0.04° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Libra is read as desire for the beautiful and the mutual. Antony is read as someone who wants the pairing itself as much as the person.
⚕ HygieaAries 25°37′ (moves 0.32° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Aries is read as health kept through action and short bursts. The reading has Antony feeling well when moving and poorly when made to wait.
⚸ Black Moon LilithGemini 5°29′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini is read as the part of Antony that says the unsayable and does not take it back.
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.
- Eros sextile Jupiter 0.5°
- Eros sextile Neptune 0.9°
- Hygiea opposition Saturn 1.8°
- Ceres square Pluto 2.1°
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°).
Antony’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. ♀ Venus7 pts
rules the Sun sign, Taurus; disposes Sun, Mercury, Saturn; 1 major aspect
2. ☉ Sun4 pts
disposes Neptune; 3 major aspects
3. ☿ Mercury4 pts
4 major aspects
A Venus-led chart is read as taste and relationship setting the terms: Antony is read as choosing by what is beautiful and who is in the room.
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 Antony’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.
No stellium, grand trine, T-square, grand cross, yod or kite closes among the planets that can be placed. That is the common case, not a gap.
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.
- Saturn biquintile Uranus 0.7°
- Venus biquintile Mars 0.8°
- Sun semi-square Venus 1.1°
- Mars quincunx Pluto 1.1°
- Venus semi-square Neptune 1.7°
- Sun quincunx Jupiter 2.4°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Antony Hewish, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

No birth time is on public record for Antony Hewish, so this chart has three pillars rather than four. The hour pillar, the rising sign and the birth-sky star all need a time, and we would rather leave them out than invent one.
Where this data comes from
Antony’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q189990, 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.

- The Rat, with the Wood element, from the Chinese lunar year of the May 11, 1924 birth.
- What time was Antony Hewish born?
- No reliably documented birth time is public, so AsterNym does not calculate an Ascendant. This chart uses date-only positions: the wheel shows a reference solar chart (the Sun's sign as house 1), and the Ascendant is left uncomputed instead of guessed from an unverified time.
- What was Antony Hewish's Life Path number?
- Life Path 5, calculated in numerology from the May 11, 1924 birth date.
- What was Antony Hewish's Chiron sign?
- Chiron in Aries at 22°. Position from JPL Horizons for the May 11, 1924 birth date.
- Where was Antony Hewish's Black Moon Lilith?
- Mean Black Moon Lilith in Gemini at 5°. This is the mean lunar apogee; the osculating Lilith some tables use can sit up to 30° away.
- What was Antony Hewish's dominant planet?
- Venus, on AsterNym's dominance score (7 points: rules the Sun sign, Taurus; disposes Sun, Mercury, Saturn; 1 major aspect). Sun is second and Mercury third. Other sites weight rulerships and aspects differently and can name a different leader.
