What the chart says

Claude, according to the stars

Core essence

Claude is the friend who says "let's just go" and means today. The core of Claude 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 Claude wants to be loved

Claude wants to be loved seriously. Venus in Capricorn is slow to open and then loyal for life, and it shows love by building: the plan, the future, the thing that lasts. Respect is the romance. Show Claude you are in it for real and the reserve melts into a warmth almost nobody else gets to see.

How Claude creates

How Claude makes things happen: they keep moving. A Yang Water day master is the river, curious, restless, going somewhere even when nobody knows where. Claude 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: Claude is steady under pressure, an Ox year, and their gut reaction is to keep going. Patient, stubborn in the useful way, the one still working when the others have gone home, and quietly very proud of it. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 6 is the nurturer. Claude 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: betrayal, and being handled. Mars in Scorpio means Claude runs hot underneath and cold on top; the anger is quiet, deep and long-remembered. They do not lose their temper, they decide. Point that focus at a goal and nothing survives in its way.

Claude Sitton at a glance

Sagittarius Sun

Needs a horizon, any horizon.

Claude Sitton's Sun was in Sagittarius for the whole of December 4, 1925, 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.

Wood Ox

Says little. Finishes everything.

Claude Sitton was born on December 4, 1925, which falls in a Wood Ox year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Ox readings emphasise endurance, reliability and the capacity to finish what was started, slowly and without complaint. The Chinese almanacs describe the Ox as the worker of the cycle, whose word holds. The corresponding caution in the tradition is stubbornness that presents itself as principle, and a difficulty changing course once a furrow has been cut.

Life Path 6

Care is the whole job.

Claude Sitton's birth date, December 4, 1925, 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.

Claude’s birth chart

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Claude Sitton, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 24° to 6° 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.

The working: aspects, Chiron and the asteroids, dominant planets and configurationsshow

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.

  • stableMoonoppositionVenus0.0° to 7.2° orb

    Claude’s feelings pull against their affections from across the wheel. A see-saw looking for balance, often played out through other people.

    Claude’s drive flows straight into their depths. A talent so smooth it can go unnoticed.

  • stableJupitersextileUranus1.2° to 1.4° orb

Claude’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.

  • ⚷ Chiron ℞Aries 24°12′ (moves 0.03° 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: Claude may have learnt early that going first costs something, and built a way of leading that does not need permission.

  • ⚳ CeresLeo 24°41′ (moves 0.14° 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. Claude is read as someone who grows people by making them feel seen.

  • ♡ ErosLibra 27°44′ (moves 0.83° 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. Claude is read as someone who wants the pairing itself as much as the person.

  • ⚕ Hygiea ℞Cancer 22°49′ (moves 0.10° over the day)

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

    Hygiea in Cancer is read as health tied to home, mood and belonging. Claude is read as someone who does not thrive far from a base.

  • ⚸ Black Moon LilithLeo 9°14′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Leo is read as a pride that will not perform on demand. Claude is read as most dangerous when underestimated.

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.

  • Hygiea opposition Jupiter 0.0°
  • Ceres conjunction Neptune 0.1°
  • Chiron trine Neptune 0.6°
  • Eros sextile Mercury 1.2°
  • Chiron square Jupiter 1.3°
  • Hygiea trine Uranus 1.3°
  • Eros square Venus 1.4°
  • Ceres trine Mercury 1.8°
  • Chiron trine Mercury 2.3°
  • Black Moon Lilith trine Sun 2.8°
  • Hygiea trine Saturn 2.9°
  • Eros sextile Neptune 3.0°

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°).

Claude’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. ♃ Jupiter8 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Sagittarius; disposes Sun, Mercury; 3 major aspects

  2. 2. ♄ Saturn7 pts

    disposes Venus, Jupiter; 5 major aspects

  3. 3. ♇ Pluto4 pts

    disposes Mars, Saturn; 2 major aspects

A Jupiter-led chart is read as scale and optimism leading: Claude 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 Claude’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.

  • Jupiter quincunx Neptune 1.9°
  • Sun quincunx Pluto 2.2°

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

No birth time is on public record for Claude Sitton, 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

Claude’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q16090119, 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 same Claude Sitton at Wikipedia.

Roster last reviewed September 10, 2026. Every entry is checked against its Wikidata record; where a person shares a name with someone else, the entity id is what settles which of them this is. What we will not tell you sets out the claims this site refuses to make.
