What the chart says
Bengt, according to the stars
How Bengt wants to be loved
Bengt wants to be loved boldly. Venus in Aries falls fast, says so, and wants you to chase back. Grand gestures land, so does a fight followed by a proper make-up. What bores them is hesitation. Be direct, be a little brave about them, and keep the spark lit on purpose.
How Bengt creates
How Bengt makes things happen: they keep moving. A Yang Water day master is the river, curious, restless, going somewhere even when nobody knows where. Bengt creates by exploring, by talking to everyone, by carrying ideas from one place to another. Hard to pin down, impossible to dam, and the best person to have on a long trip.
Instinct
Instinct: Bengt is loyal to the bone, a Dog year, and their gut reaction is to protect their people. Honest, fair, a little anxious about the world, and the most dependable friend in the room. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 7 is the seeker. Bengt is here to understand, to go deep rather than wide, to keep a private inner world that most people never see. Thoughtful, intuitive, happiest with time alone, and learning to let the right people in.
Triggers
Triggers: being rushed, and being pushed. Mars in Taurus means Bengt is slow to anger and very hard to move once they are. Patience is the superpower, stubbornness its shadow. Let them set the pace and they are unstoppable in their own time.

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.
Bengt I. Samuelsson in 15 seconds
Taurus or Gemini Sun
Bengt I. Samuelsson was born on a day when the Sun moved from Taurus into Gemini. Without a documented birth time, the exact Sun sign cannot be determined reliably, so AsterNym shows both rather than choosing one.
Wood Dog
Wood DogWorries so you don't have to.
Bengt I. Samuelsson was born on May 21, 1934, which falls in a Wood Dog year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Dog readings emphasise loyalty, honesty and a strong sense of what is fair. The Chinese almanacs describe the Dog as the guardian of the cycle, protective of its own and quick to notice a wrong. The corresponding caution in the tradition is anxiety: a watchfulness that does not know when to stand down.
Life Path 7
Life Path 7Solitary, curious, deep.
Bengt I. Samuelsson's birth date, May 21, 1934, reduces to Life Path 7 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 7 readings associate the number with inquiry, analysis and solitude: the need to understand what others simply accept. Numerologists describe it as the path of the seeker, reflective and private. The corresponding tension is withdrawal, with the caution that a mind at home in its own company can forget to come out.
What stands out in Bengt’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Bengt I. Samuelsson's date-only chart is Mercury square Neptune, with an orb of under 1°.
Bengt’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Bengt I. Samuelsson, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 21° to 3° Leo or Virgo 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.

Bengt’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.
⚷ ChironGemini 3°54′ (moves 0.08° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Gemini is read as a tender spot around being heard or believed. The tradition has Bengt turning that into a careful, exact way with words.
⚳ CeresGemini 0°25′ (moves 0.41° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Gemini is read as nurture through talk and attention. The tradition has Bengt feeding people with information and feeling fed by conversation.
♡ ErosGemini 3°22′ (moves 0.85° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Gemini is read as desire that starts in conversation. Bengt is read as someone for whom a quick mind is the first attraction.
⚕ HygieaPisces 0°16′ (moves 0.19° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Pisces is read as health that rises and falls with what is absorbed from others. The reading has Bengt needing solitude to reset.
⚸ Black Moon LilithCancer 23°27′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Cancer is read as the refusal to be tamed by the role of carer. The reading has Bengt guarding a private self that family did not get to name.
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.
- Black Moon Lilith conjunction Pluto 0.5°
- Hygiea square Sun 0.6°
- Ceres conjunction Sun 0.7°
- Hygiea sextile Uranus 1.0°
- Black Moon Lilith sextile Mars 2.2°
- Hygiea conjunction Saturn 2.4°
- Ceres square Saturn 2.5°
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°).
Bengt’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. ♀ Venus8 pts
rules the Sun sign, Taurus; disposes Sun, Mars, Jupiter; 2 major aspects
2. ☿ Mercury5 pts
in its own sign, Gemini; disposes Neptune; 2 major aspects
3. ♂ Mars3 pts
disposes Venus, Uranus; 1 major aspect
A Venus-led chart is read as taste and relationship setting the terms: Bengt 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 Bengt’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.
- Sun semi-sextile Uranus 0.5°
- Sun sesquiquadrate Jupiter 0.8°
- Venus biquintile Neptune 0.9°
- Jupiter sesquiquadrate Saturn 1.0°
- Saturn biquintile Pluto 1.0°
- Mars biquintile Jupiter 1.3°
- Mercury semi-square Pluto 1.6°
- Neptune semi-square Pluto 1.7°
- Sun semi-square Venus 1.8°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Bengt I. Samuelsson, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

No birth time is on public record for Bengt I. Samuelsson, 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
Bengt’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q295768, 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.

Quick answers about Bengt I. Samuelsson’s chart
- What zodiac sign was Bengt I. Samuelsson?
- Bengt I. Samuelsson was born on a day when the Sun moved from Taurus into Gemini. Without a documented birth time, the exact Sun sign cannot be determined reliably, so AsterNym shows both rather than choosing one. In the Chinese zodiac they were a Wood Dog.
- What was Bengt I. Samuelsson's Chinese zodiac animal?
- The Dog, with the Wood element, from the Chinese lunar year of the May 21, 1934 birth.
- What time was Bengt I. Samuelsson 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 Bengt I. Samuelsson's Life Path number?
- Life Path 7, calculated in numerology from the May 21, 1934 birth date.
- What was Bengt I. Samuelsson's Chiron sign?
- Chiron in Gemini at 3°. Position from JPL Horizons for the May 21, 1934 birth date.
- Where was Bengt I. Samuelsson's Black Moon Lilith?
- Mean Black Moon Lilith in Cancer at 23°. This is the mean lunar apogee; the osculating Lilith some tables use can sit up to 30° away.
- What was Bengt I. Samuelsson's dominant planet?
- Venus, on AsterNym's dominance score (8 points: rules the Sun sign, Taurus; disposes Sun, Mars, Jupiter; 2 major aspects). Mercury is second and Mars third. Other sites weight rulerships and aspects differently and can name a different leader.
