What the chart says

Bob, according to the stars

Core essence

Bob is two conversations at once and somehow following both. Curiosity is the core of it: the quick question, the sideways joke, the friend who texts you an article at midnight because it reminded them of you. Bob needs newness the way other people need sleep, and gives the people around them the gift of never being bored.

The vibe

Underneath, Bob is all feeling, tide in and tide out. The Moon in Cancer means moods are weather, real and passing, and memory is long: they keep every kindness and, quietly, every slight. What Bob needs to feel safe is a soft place to land that is not going anywhere. Give them that and they give you everything.

How Bob wants to be loved

Bob 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. Bob gives care in a hundred quiet ways and needs to know it is noticed. Consistency is the romance.

How Bob creates

How Bob makes things happen: they hold the flame steady. A Yin Fire day master is the candle, the lamp, the light that is close and personal rather than blazing. Bob creates intimacy, one room, one conversation, one person made to feel seen. Moody when the fuel runs low, magnetic when it does not.

Instinct

Instinct: Bob is gentle and diplomatic, a Rabbit year, and their gut reaction is to keep the peace and read the room. Graceful, kind, quietly discerning, and much tougher than the soft manners suggest. The Water year softens it: intuitive, adaptable, feeling their way through people.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 2 is the peacemaker. Bob is here to bring people together, to feel the undercurrents and smooth them, to be the reason a room works. Sensitive, diplomatic, quietly essential, and learning that their own needs count too.

Triggers

Triggers: sloppiness, and being told they are overthinking it. Mars in Virgo means Bob channels energy into fixing, sorting, getting it right, and gets sharp when others do not care. The critic turns inward first. Give them a problem worth solving and watch them come alive.

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.

Bob Hope at a glance

Gemini Sun

Fascinating, then gone.

Bob Hope's Sun was in Gemini for the whole of May 29, 1903, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Gemini readings associate the sign with curiosity, conversation and range: several interests held at once and a talent for connecting people and ideas. Astrologers describe it as the mutable air sign, ruled by Mercury. The corresponding tension is restlessness, with the classical caution that the next subject is always more interesting than finishing the current one.

Water Rabbit

Three steps ahead, no fuss.

Bob Hope was born on May 29, 1903, which falls in a Water Rabbit year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Rabbit readings emphasise tact, grace and the ability to settle a room without seeming to try. The Chinese almanacs describe the Rabbit as the diplomat of the cycle, alert to subtleties and fond of comfort. The corresponding caution in the tradition is avoidance: the tendency to slip away from a conflict that needed to happen.

Life Path 2

Better with someone at their back.

Bob Hope's birth date, May 29, 1903, reduces to Life Path 2 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 2 readings associate the number with cooperation, diplomacy and mediation: working alongside others and holding a group together. Numerologists describe it as the path of the partner, and read its influence as quiet rather than visible. The corresponding tension is self-effacement, with the caution that influence exercised through others can go uncounted, including by the person exercising it.

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Bob Hope, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 4° to 19° Cancer 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.

Aspects across every possible birth time

Stable aspects hold for any birth hour. Possible ones depend on the hour, so their orb is a range rather than a number. Orb policy western_v1.

Bob’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.

  • ChironCapricorn 22°18′ (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. Bob is read as someone who earns standing the long way and does not fully trust it when it arrives.

  • CeresLeo 25°35′ (moves 0.31° over the day)

    dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured

    Ceres in Leo is read as nurture through encouragement and applause. Bob is read as someone who grows people by making them feel seen.

  • ErosSagittarius 24°02′ (moves 0.42° 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 Bob attracted to people who open a door rather than close one.

  • HygieaGemini 21°35′ (moves 0.33° over the day)

    main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well

    Hygiea in Gemini is read as health that lives in the nerves and the mind. The tradition has Bob needing variety and enough sleep in equal measure.

  • Black Moon LilithCapricorn 22°55′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn is read as ambition that does not ask to be liked. Bob is read as someone who takes the authority rather than waiting for it.

Aspects to the asteroids and Lilith

Major aspects only, at a tight orb. The Moon is left out because its position moves 13° across an untimed day.

  • Eros conjunction Uranus 0.3°
  • Ceres trine Uranus 1.2°
  • Hygiea square Jupiter 1.5°
  • Chiron sextile Jupiter 2.2°
  • Hygiea conjunction Pluto 2.7°
  • Hygiea opposition Uranus 2.8°
  • Black Moon Lilith sextile Jupiter 2.8°

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°).

Bob’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. 1. Mercury11 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Gemini; in its own sign, Gemini; disposes Sun, Mars, Pluto; 3 major aspects

  2. 2. Jupiter5 pts

    disposes Uranus; 4 major aspects

  3. 3. Moon4 pts

    in its own sign, Cancer; disposes Venus, Neptune

A Mercury-led chart is read as the mind in charge: Bob is read as thinking, talking and connecting their way through life.

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 Bob’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, the shape it makesStellium in Gemini · 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.
  • t square, the shape it makesT-square onto Jupiter · Uranus, Pluto, JupiterAn opposition with a third planet squaring both ends. Read as a driving tension that resolves through the apex planet.

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 semi-square Uranus 0.1°
  • Venus quintile Mars 0.4°
  • Venus semi-sextile Pluto 0.7°
  • Saturn biquintile Neptune 0.8°

Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Bob Hope, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

No birth time is on public record for Bob Hope, 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

Bob’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q94081, 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.
