What the chart says
Broderick, according to the stars
Core essence
Broderick is the friend who says "let's just go" and means today. The core of Broderick 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.
How Broderick creates
How Broderick makes things happen: they seep in. A Yin Water day master is rain, mist, the still pool that reflects everything. Broderick creates by sensing, by imagination, by noticing what nobody else said. Their influence is quiet and total. The work is not dissolving into everyone else's weather.
Instinct
Instinct: Broderick is warm and generous, a Pig year, and their gut reaction is to trust. Big-hearted, fun, sincere, a lover of good things, and deserving of people who are as honest as they are. The Metal year sharpens it: principled, determined, clear about what is right.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 6 is the nurturer. Broderick is here to care, to make a home wherever they are, to be the person others come to. Responsible, warm, a little too willing to carry everyone, and learning to let themselves be looked after.
Triggers
Triggers: being rushed, and being pushed. Mars in Taurus means Broderick 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.

Broderick Crawford at a glance
Sagittarius Sun
Sagittarius SunBlunt, cheerful, gone by morning.
Broderick Crawford's Sun was in Sagittarius for the whole of December 9, 1911, so no birth time is needed to settle it. 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.
Metal Pig
Metal PigGenerous to the last coin.
Broderick Crawford was born on December 9, 1911, which falls in a Metal Pig year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Pig readings emphasise generosity, sincerity and an appetite for the good things, shared. The Chinese almanacs describe the Pig as the most open-handed sign in the cycle, trusting and hard to anger. The corresponding caution in the tradition is naivety, and a difficulty believing that anyone would take advantage of that trust.
Life Path 6
Life Path 6Feeds the room, forgets to eat.
Broderick Crawford's birth date, December 9, 1911, reduces to Life Path 6 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 6 readings associate the number with care, responsibility and beauty: home, family and the instinct to support the people nearby. Numerologists describe it as the path of the nurturer. The corresponding tension is over-responsibility, with the caution that carrying other people's burdens can become a way of avoiding one's own.

Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Broderick Crawford, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 29° to 14° Cancer or 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.

Broderick’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.
⚷ ChironPisces 2°35′ (moves 0.03° over the day)
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 Broderick absorbing more of a room than most, and needing somewhere to put it down.
⚳ Ceres ℞Leo 3°43′ (moves 0.04° 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. Broderick is read as someone who grows people by making them feel seen.
♡ ErosScorpio 13°39′ (moves 0.78° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Scorpio sits in the sign the tradition links to it most closely: desire as depth and total exposure. Broderick is read as uninterested in anything half-felt.
⚕ HygieaCapricorn 18°25′ (moves 0.38° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Capricorn is read as health as discipline and a long game. Broderick is read as someone who keeps going past the point others stop, for better and worse.
⚸ Black Moon LilithCapricorn 10°04′ (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. Broderick 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. The Moon is left out because its position moves 13° across an untimed day.
- Eros opposition Saturn 0.9°
- Chiron trine Venus 2.2°
- Chiron square Jupiter 2.7°
- Black Moon Lilith conjunction Mercury 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°).
Broderick’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. ♃ Jupiter7 pts
rules the Sun sign, Sagittarius; disposes Sun; 3 major aspects
2. ♀ Venus4 pts
disposes Mars, Saturn; 2 major aspects
3. ♅ Uranus4 pts
4 major aspects
A Jupiter-led chart is read as scale and optimism leading: Broderick 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.
Configurations in Broderick’s chart

Where this data comes from
Broderick’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q182349, 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.
