What the chart says

David, according to the stars

Core essence

David notices. That is the whole thing: the detail everyone else walked past, the small fix that makes the day work, the way you looked slightly off when you said you were fine. The core of David is devotion expressed as usefulness. They love by improving things, and they are far kinder to other people than to themselves.

How David wants to be loved

David wants to be loved attentively. Venus in Virgo shows love through service, the fixed thing, the remembered appointment, and wants to be loved the same way: notice what they did. Big words matter less than the follow-through. Be reliable with David and they will quietly make your whole life run better.

How David creates

How David makes things happen: they light the room. A Yang Fire day master is the sun, warm, visible, impossible to ignore, generous with energy and expecting the same back. David creates in front of people and is at their best with an audience and a cause. The work is learning to rest before the fire does it for them.

Instinct

Instinct: David is gentle and diplomatic, a Rabbit year, and their gut reaction is to keep the peace and read the room. Graceful, kind, quietly discerning, and much tougher than the soft manners suggest. The Metal year sharpens it: principled, determined, clear about what is right.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 2 is the peacemaker. David is here to bring people together, to feel the undercurrents and smooth them, to be the reason a room works. Sensitive, diplomatic, quietly essential, and learning that their own needs count too.

Triggers

Triggers: being ignored, or being made small. Mars in Leo means David fights with pride and flair and needs the win to be seen. Generous in victory, dramatic in defeat, and never, ever petty for long. Give them the stage and the fire becomes warmth.

No public birth time is available, so this is a 9:00 p.m. reference evening sky for that date and place.

Dedications are commemorative AsterNym records and do not rename or confer ownership of stars.

David Horsey in 15 seconds

Virgo Sun

Fixes everything except the need to.

David Horsey's Sun was in Virgo for the whole of September 13, 1951, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Virgo readings associate the sign with precision, service and improvement: noticing what is off and quietly putting it right. Astrologers describe it as the mutable earth sign, ruled by Mercury, and read it for craft and analysis. The corresponding tension is perfectionism, described in the tradition as a standard applied hardest to the self.

Metal Rabbit

Three steps ahead, no fuss.

David Horsey was born on September 13, 1951, which falls in a Metal Rabbit year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Rabbit readings emphasise tact, grace and the ability to settle a room without seeming to try. The Chinese almanacs describe the Rabbit as the diplomat of the cycle, alert to subtleties and fond of comfort. The corresponding caution in the tradition is avoidance: the tendency to slip away from a conflict that needed to happen.

Life Path 2

Better with someone at their back.

David Horsey's birth date, September 13, 1951, reduces to Life Path 2 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 2 readings associate the number with cooperation, diplomacy and mediation: working alongside others and holding a group together. Numerologists describe it as the path of the partner, and read its influence as quiet rather than visible. The corresponding tension is self-effacement, with the caution that influence exercised through others can go uncounted, including by the person exercising it.

David’s birth chart

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for David Horsey, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 19° to 3° Aquarius or Pisces 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.

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.

  • stableMarssextileNeptune1.2° to 1.8° orb

    David’s drive opens doors for their imagination. Nothing happens until someone makes the first move.

  • stableMercuryconjunctionVenus1.4° to 2.4° orb

    David’s mind and affections act as one. Wherever one goes, the other is already there.

  • stableJupitersquareUranus1.7° to 1.8° orb

    David’s growth grinds against their need for freedom. The angle that irritates, and the one that teaches.

  • stableNeptunesextilePluto2.2° to 2.3° orb

    David’s imagination opens doors for their depths. An easy alliance, and it pays off when it is used.

David’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.

  • ChironSagittarius 26°55′ (moves 0.02° over the day)

    centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it

    Chiron in Sagittarius is read as a sore spot around belief and being taught. The reading has David building a philosophy from lived evidence rather than received one.

  • CeresPisces 7°19′ (moves 0.21° over the day)

    dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured

    Ceres in Pisces is read as nurture without a boundary: David is read as someone who feels what others need before they say it, and can give past the point of sense.

  • ErosAries 20°11′ (moves 0.17° over the day)

    near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire

    Eros in Aries is read as desire that moves first and asks later. David is read as drawn to the chase more than the catch.

  • HygieaPisces 13°22′ (moves 0.19° over the day)

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

    Hygiea in Pisces is read as health that rises and falls with what is absorbed from others. The reading has David needing solitude to reset.

  • Black Moon LilithCancer 7°60′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Cancer is read as the refusal to be tamed by the role of carer. The reading has David guarding a private self that family did not get to name.

Aspects to the asteroids and Lilith

Major aspects only, at a tight orb. The Moon is left out because its position moves 13° across an untimed day.

  • Hygiea trine Uranus 0.0°
  • Eros trine Pluto 0.3°
  • Eros opposition Neptune 2.0°
  • Ceres opposition Venus 2.6°

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°).

David’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. Mercury8 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Virgo; in its own sign, Virgo; disposes Sun, Venus; 1 major aspect

  2. 2. Mars4 pts

    disposes Jupiter; 3 major aspects

  3. 3. Neptune4 pts

    4 major aspects

A Mercury-led chart is read as the mind in charge: David is read as thinking, talking and connecting their way through life.

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 David’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.

  • stellium, the shape it makesStellium in Virgo · Sun, Mercury, VenusThree or more planets in one sign (four, or three with a luminary, by AsterNym's count): a concentration astrologers read as that sign's themes dominating the chart.
  • t square, the shape it makesT-square onto Uranus · Jupiter, Neptune, UranusAn opposition with a third planet squaring both ends. Read as a driving tension that resolves through the apex planet.

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.

  • Mercury semi-square Neptune 0.4°
  • Mercury semi-sextile Saturn 0.8°
  • Venus biquintile Jupiter 1.0°

  • Venus semi-square Neptune 1.5°
  • Mars semi-square Saturn 1.8°
  • Sun semi-sextile Neptune 1.9°
  • Saturn semi-square Pluto 1.9°

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

Born the same day as David

Jean Smart was born on September 13, 1951 too, the same date with the same year. With no birth time recorded for any of them, this is the same chart, not a similar one. Same sky, different lives.

No birth time is on public record for David Horsey, 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

David’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q3018088, 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 David Horsey at Wikipedia, david-horsey.com and X.

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.
