What the chart says
Dennis, according to the stars
Core essence
Dennis does not do surface. The core of Dennis is intensity, the kind that wants the real story and can tell when it is not getting it. They love completely or not at all, keep their own counsel, and have a private loyalty that runs deeper than anyone outside it will ever know. Trust from Dennis is earned slowly and never given lightly.
How Dennis wants to be loved
Dennis wants to be loved by someone who is also their favourite travel companion. Venus in Sagittarius needs laughter, honesty and a long leash, and gives the same. Possessiveness kills it; adventure feeds it. Go somewhere new with Dennis and watch them fall for you again.
How Dennis creates
How Dennis 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. Dennis 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: Dennis is witty and inventive, a Monkey year, and their gut reaction is to play with the problem. Clever, funny, curious, a little mischievous, and quick to land on their feet. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 11 is the visionary, a master number. Dennis is here to see what others cannot yet and to say it, an antenna for the mood of the moment. Intuitive, inspiring, sometimes overwhelmed by their own sensitivity, and learning to ground the vision in something real.
Triggers
Triggers: betrayal, and being handled. Mars in Scorpio means Dennis 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.

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 may need space before addressing conflict. Cooling off comes first.

Dennis Franz in 15 seconds
Scorpio Sun
Scorpio SunDeep water, no shallow end.
Dennis Franz's Sun was in Scorpio for the whole of October 28, 1944, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Scorpio readings associate the sign with intensity, depth and strong loyalties: few bonds, held completely. Astrologers describe it as the fixed water sign, traditionally ruled by Mars and in modern practice by Pluto, and read it for privacy and resolve. The corresponding tension is the tendency to guard trust closely and to remember what was done with it.
Wood Monkey
Wood MonkeyInventive, restless, funny.
Dennis Franz was born on October 28, 1944, which falls in a Wood Monkey year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Monkey readings emphasise ingenuity, wit and the ability to find unconventional solutions to problems others have given up on. The Chinese almanacs describe the Monkey as the cleverest sign in the cycle, playful and quick. The corresponding caution in the tradition is mischief, and a trick played one time too many on the wrong person.
Life Path 11
Life Path 11Bright signal, thin skin.
Dennis Franz's birth date, October 28, 1944, reduces to Life Path 11 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 11 readings treat the number as a master path, associated with intuition, sensitivity and noticing patterns before they become obvious. Numerologists read it as an intensified 2: the partner's gifts under pressure. The corresponding tension is nervous strain, with the caution that perceiving more than most people can be exhausting to carry.

Dennis’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Dennis Franz, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 17° to 2° Pisces or Aries 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.

Dennis’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.
⚷ ChironVirgo 27°38′ (moves 0.13° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Virgo is read as a wound around never being good enough. The reading has Dennis turning that pressure into craft and an eye for what others miss.
⚳ CeresLibra 1°01′ (moves 0.44° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Libra is read as nurture through fairness and company. Dennis is read as someone who feeds others by keeping the peace and the balance.
♡ Eros ℞Taurus 4°01′ (moves 0.42° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Taurus is read as desire through the senses and through time. The reading has Dennis wanting what can be touched, kept and returned to.
⚕ HygieaSagittarius 5°30′ (moves 0.40° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Sagittarius is read as health through movement, space and a reason. Dennis is read as someone who is well when going somewhere.
⚸ Black Moon LilithVirgo 28°15′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo is read as a refusal of the standard of good enough, turned both outward and inward. The modern reading has Dennis exacting with themselves first.
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 sextile Neptune 0.4°
- Eros opposition Sun 1.1°
- Hygiea conjunction Venus 1.8°
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°).
Dennis’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. ♇ Pluto11 pts
rules the Sun sign, Scorpio; disposes Sun, Mercury, Mars; 5 major aspects
2. ☿ Mercury6 pts
disposes Jupiter, Uranus; 4 major aspects
3. ♂ Mars5.5 pts
traditionally rules the Sun sign, Scorpio; 4 major aspects
A Pluto-led chart is read as intensity and transformation leading: Dennis is read as someone who does not do things by half and rebuilds after every ending.
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 Dennis’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 in Scorpio · Sun, Mercury, MarsThree 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.
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.
- Sun semi-sextile Neptune 0.0°
- Sun semi-square Jupiter 0.4°
- Saturn semi-sextile Pluto 0.5°
- Sun biquintile Uranus 1.3°
- Saturn semi-sextile Uranus 1.7°
- Mars quincunx Uranus 2.1°
- Mercury quincunx Uranus 2.3°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Dennis Franz, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

Where this data comes from
Dennis’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q435271, 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.
