The record
What sets Bob apart
Edward Jenner (1749) and Enya (1961) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.
What the chart says
Bob, according to the stars
Core essence
Bob 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 Bob 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, Bob is quietly running a checklist, and half of it is about you. The Moon in Virgo feels care as responsibility: did you eat, did you get home, is the thing you were worried about handled. What Bob needs to feel safe is order and the sense of being useful. Let them help, and thank them properly.
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 grow upward. A Yang Wood day master is the tree, the one with a direction and the patience to keep at it through a bad season. Bob builds in the open, wants to be useful, and is at their most creative when there is something to reach for. Bend rather than break is the lesson they learn a few times.
Instinct
Instinct: Bob is witty and inventive, a Monkey year, and their gut reaction is to play with the problem. Clever, funny, curious, a little mischievous, and quick to land on their feet. The Fire year turns the volume up: warmer, bolder, more expressive, harder to overlook.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 7 is the seeker. Bob 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 told "because that's how it's done." Mars in Aquarius fights for the idea, the group, the principle, rarely for themselves. Bob 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.

Bob Saget at a glance
Taurus Sun
Taurus SunTry rushing a Taurus. Go on.
Bob Saget's Sun was in Taurus at the documented birth time. 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.
Fire Monkey
Fire MonkeySolved it, and made a joke.
Bob Saget was born on May 17, 1956, which falls in a Fire Monkey year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Monkey readings emphasise ingenuity, wit and the ability to find unconventional solutions to problems others have given up on. The Chinese almanacs describe the Monkey as the cleverest sign in the cycle, playful and quick. The corresponding caution in the tradition is mischief, and a trick played one time too many on the wrong person.
Life Path 7
Life Path 7Thinks more than it says.
Bob Saget's birth date, May 17, 1956, 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.

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.
⚷ Chiron ℞Aquarius 11°44′ · House 4
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Aquarius is read as a wound around fitting in. The tradition has Bob making a place among outsiders and keeping the door open for the next one.
⚳ CeresAries 3°00′ · House 6
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Aries is read as nurture through action: Bob looks after people by pushing them forward and expects the same in return.
♡ ErosAquarius 9°45′ · House 4
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Aquarius is read as desire for the unusual and the friend-first bond. Bob is read as needing a shared idea before a shared bed.
⚕ HygieaAquarius 0°05′ · House 4
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. Bob is read as someone who ignores the standard advice and sometimes proves it wrong.
⚸ Black Moon LilithCapricorn 18°18′ · House 3
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 3° orb.
- Hygiea sextile Saturn 0.4°
- Hygiea opposition Uranus 1.1°
- Eros trine Mercury 1.3°
- Hygiea square Neptune 1.8°
- Ceres square Venus 2.7°
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, angularity and aspect count under the method below.
1. ♇ Pluto11 pts
rules the Ascendant, Scorpio; disposes Saturn; angular in the tenth house; 5 major aspects
2. ☉ Sun8 pts
disposes Jupiter, Pluto; angular in the seventh house; 5 major aspects
3. ☿ Mercury7 pts
rules the Moon sign, Virgo; in its own sign, Gemini; disposes Moon; 1 major aspect
A Pluto-led chart is read as intensity and transformation leading: Bob is read as someone who does not do things by half and rebuilds after every ending.
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.
