Eric Roberts’s AsterNym identity

The Evergreen Visionary

Wood represents growth. Wood-led charts are associated with patience, adaptability and the drive to keep developing. Life Path 7 represents inquiry: study, solitude and the need to understand what others may simply accept.

The record

What sets Eric apart

Conan O'Brien (1963) and Haile Gebrselassie (1973) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.

What the chart says

Eric, according to the stars

Core essence

Eric leads with the body. First in, first to speak, first to say the thing everyone was thinking, and honestly a little surprised when the room needed a second to catch up. The core of Eric is courage that does not look like courage from the inside, it just looks like Tuesday. They would rather be wrong fast than right slowly, and it is why people follow them.

The vibe

Underneath, Eric needs to be adored a little, and there is nothing wrong with that. The Moon in Leo feels things dramatically and generously and wants them noticed. What Eric needs to feel safe is to be chosen out loud: the compliment said in front of people, the text that says you were thinking of them. They repay it tenfold.

How Eric wants to be loved

Eric 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 Eric like it is the first week, and it can feel like it for years.

How Eric creates

How Eric 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. Eric 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: Eric 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 Fire year turns the volume up: warmer, bolder, more expressive, harder to overlook.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 7 is the seeker. Eric is here to understand, to go deep rather than wide, to keep a private inner world that most people never see. Thoughtful, intuitive, happiest with time alone, and learning to let the right people in.

Triggers

Triggers: being told "because that's how it's done." Mars in Aquarius fights for the idea, the group, the principle, rarely for themselves. Eric goes cool and distant rather than hot, and then does the surprising thing. Point them at a cause and they will rewrite the rules around it.

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

Eric Roberts in 15 seconds

Aries Sun

Fires first. Thinks later.

Eric Roberts's Sun was in Aries for the whole of April 18, 1956, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Aries readings associate the sign with initiative, directness and a preference for acting before the plan is finished. Astrologers describe it as the cardinal fire sign: the one that starts things. The corresponding tension is impatience, with the classical caution that what Aries begins quickly it may leave for someone else to complete.

Fire Monkey

Solved it, and made a joke.

Eric Roberts was born on April 18, 1956, which falls in a Fire 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 7

Thinks more than it says.

Eric Roberts's birth date, April 18, 1956, reduces to Life Path 7 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 7 readings associate the number with inquiry, analysis and solitude: the need to understand what others simply accept. Numerologists describe it as the path of the seeker, reflective and private. The corresponding tension is withdrawal, with the caution that a mind at home in its own company can forget to come out.

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Eric Roberts, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 1° to 15° 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.

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.

Eric’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.

  • ⚷ ChironAquarius 11°17′ (moves 0.03° over the day)

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

    Chiron in Aquarius is read as a wound around fitting in. The tradition has Eric making a place among outsiders and keeping the door open for the next one.

  • ⚳ CeresPisces 22°49′ (moves 0.37° 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: Eric is read as someone who feels what others need before they say it, and can give past the point of sense.

  • ♡ ErosAquarius 1°05′ (moves 0.38° over the day)

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

    Eros in Aquarius is read as desire for the unusual and the friend-first bond. Eric is read as needing a shared idea before a shared bed.

  • ⚕ HygieaCapricorn 26°14′ (moves 0.20° over the day)

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

    Hygiea in Capricorn is read as health as discipline and a long game. Eric is read as someone who keeps going past the point others stop, for better and worse.

  • ⚸ Black Moon LilithCapricorn 15°03′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn is read as ambition that does not ask to be liked. Eric is read as someone who takes the authority rather than waiting for it.

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.

  • Eros sextile Saturn 0.6°
  • Chiron square Mercury 0.9°
  • Eros conjunction Mars 1.3°
  • Eros square Neptune 2.0°
  • Hygiea opposition Uranus 2.1°
  • Eros square Sun 2.4°
  • Hygiea square Sun 2.4°
  • Eros opposition Uranus 2.8°
  • Hygiea square Neptune 2.8°
  • Chiron trine Venus 2.9°
  • Black Moon Lilith trine Mercury 2.9°

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°).

Eric’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. ♂ Mars8 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Aries; disposes Sun; 4 major aspects

  2. 2. ☉ Sun6 pts

    disposes Jupiter, Pluto; 4 major aspects

  3. 3. ♅ Uranus5 pts

    disposes Mars; 4 major aspects

A Mars-led chart is read as drive setting the pace: Eric is read as acting first and reflecting after.

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 Eric’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.

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

Where this data comes from

Eric’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q207969, 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.
