What the chart says
David, according to the stars
Core essence
David feels the room before entering it. The core of David is care, the practical kind that remembers what you said in March and has already made the tea. They protect their people with a fierceness that surprises anyone who only knew the soft exterior. Home is not a place for David, it is whoever they have decided to keep.
How David wants to be loved
David 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 David like it is the first week, and it can feel like it for years.
How David creates
How David 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. David 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: David is creative and kind, a Goat year, and their gut reaction is to make it beautiful. Artistic, gentle, easily moved, and the friend everyone confides in. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 3 is the creative. David is here to express, to make, to say the thing in a way nobody has said it before. Joy is the work: the writing, the performing, the making people laugh. The lesson is finishing what the spark started.
Triggers
Triggers: feeling unsafe, or seeing their people treated badly. Mars in Cancer means David does not fight for themselves easily but will go to war for someone they love. The anger comes out sideways at first, then all at once. Protectiveness is the whole engine.

The sky over Fort Wayne that night
Computed for 41.08°N, 9 p.m. local sky.
At 9 p.m. the star closest to straight overhead at Fort Wayne was Alkaid, in Ursa Major, 79.5° up.
The brightest star above the horizon was Arcturus in Boötes, and 84 catalog stars were up in all.
From 41.1°N not one of the brightest stars stays permanently above the horizon — all of them rise and set.
Nothing below −48.9° declination clears the horizon at this latitude, so Canopus, Rigil Kentaurus, Achernar, Hadar, Acrux, Mimosa and Toliman were never visible from Fort Wayne on any night.
Sun 7° below the horizon, Moon up and 12% lit at waxing crescent.

Where this comes from, and how it is worked out
David’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q339426 (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.
