What the chart says
Craig, according to the stars
Core essence
Craig 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 Craig 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.
How Craig wants to be loved
Craig wants to be loved in conversation. Venus in Gemini falls for a mind first: the banter, the shared joke, the person who keeps them guessing a little. Attention is the love language and boredom is the enemy. Keep talking to Craig like it is the first week, and it can feel like it for years.
How Craig creates
How Craig makes things happen: they find the gap and grow through it. A Yin Wood day master is the vine, flexible, quietly relentless, better at working around a wall than at knocking it down. Craig creates by adapting, by connecting people, by making the awkward thing fit. Underestimate them and you will look up one day to find them everywhere.
Instinct
Instinct: Craig is bold, a Tiger year, and their gut reaction is to leap. Brave, generous, a bit dramatic, magnetic to be around, and never boring for a second. The Water year softens it: intuitive, adaptable, feeling their way through people.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 22 is the master builder. Craig is here to turn a big vision into something that actually stands, at a scale most people would not attempt. Practical and visionary at once, patient, and learning that even the largest things are built one day at a time.
Triggers
Triggers: being told to wait. Mars in Aries means Craig gets angry fast, says it, and is over it before you have finished being hurt. The temper is honest and short. Give them a clear path and something to fight for, and all that heat turns into drive.

Where Craig sits
Six lines
Craig’s dot comes from the chart; yours is where you put it.
You likely balance a tight inner circle with a wider orbit you dip into.
You likely think things through before you act. Haste rarely feels safe.
You likely share some feelings openly and keep others to yourself.
You likely handle some friction right away and let smaller things settle.
You may favor what's proven and workable over the untested idea.
You may build trust slowly, letting closeness earn its way in.

The sky over Glasgow that night
Computed for 55.86°N, 9 p.m. local sky.
Merak stood nearest the zenith over Glasgow at 9 p.m. that evening, 86.6° above the horizon in Ursa Major.
Arcturus was the brightest thing up that night, one of 100 catalog stars above the horizon.
From 55.9°N, Vega, Capella and Deneb never go below the horizon: they are circumpolar at this latitude.
Canopus, Rigil Kentaurus, Achernar, Hadar, Acrux, Mimosa and Toliman cannot be seen from Glasgow at all: they sit past the −34.1° declination limit this latitude imposes.
The Moon was at full moon, 97% lit, and above the horizon, with the Sun -2° down.

The sky over the birthplace is not shared: from Glasgow, at 55.9°N, Vega, Capella and Deneb never set at all. Same sky, different lives.

Where this comes from, and how it is worked out
Craig’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q72867 (CC0), as do the occupations, works and awards above. With no documented birth time this chart is rated X on the Rodden scale, the astrological convention for how well evidenced a birth time is. The banner above lists what that leaves out. Entries are matched to Wikidata by entity id rather than by name, kept at day precision, and dropped where sources disagree on the date.
Tropical zodiac, whole-sign houses, modern rulers. Aspects on the western_v1 orb policy; minor ones at 1.5° to 2.5°, skipped where a major already holds. Minor bodies from JPL Horizons heliocentric vectors, Lilith as mean apogee. Dominance is an AsterNym score — rulerships, dispositors, aspect count — so other methods can name a different leader.
