What the chart says

Eric, according to the stars

Core essence

Eric 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 Eric 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.

The vibe

Underneath, Eric is all feeling, tide in and tide out. The Moon in Cancer means moods are weather, real and passing, and memory is long: they keep every kindness and, quietly, every slight. What Eric needs to feel safe is a soft place to land that is not going anywhere. Give them that and they give you everything.

How Eric wants to be loved

Eric wants to be loved boldly. Venus in Aries falls fast, says so, and wants you to chase back. Grand gestures land, so does a fight followed by a proper make-up. What bores them is hesitation. Be direct, be a little brave about them, and keep the spark lit on purpose.

How Eric creates

How Eric makes things happen: they are the ground everyone else stands on. A Yang Earth day master is the mountain, reliable, slow to move, immovable once it has. Eric creates by holding: the plan, the people, the standard. They are trusted before they have said a word, and the work is remembering that mountains are allowed to want things too.

Instinct

Instinct: Eric 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 6 is the nurturer. Eric is here to care, to make a home wherever they are, to be the person others come to. Responsible, warm, a little too willing to carry everyone, and learning to let themselves be looked after.

Triggers

Triggers: being bored, and being talked over. Mars in Gemini fights with words and wins, then forgets it happened. Eric scatters energy across three projects at once and somehow finishes two. The trick is choosing the argument worth having.

No public birth time is available, so this is a 9:00 p.m. reference evening sky for that date and place. It is connected to the night of birth; it is not the sky at the birth minute, and no other reading on this page uses that time. Dedications are commemorative AsterNym records and do not rename or confer ownership of stars.

Taurus Sun

Try rushing a Taurus. Go on.

Eric Schmidt's Sun was in Taurus for the whole of April 27, 1955, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Taurus readings associate the sign with steadiness, sensory pleasure and things that last. Astrologers describe it as the fixed earth sign, ruled by Venus, and read it for loyalty, routine and a slow, deliberate pace. The corresponding tension is resistance to change, described in the tradition as stubbornness that presents itself as principle.

Wood Goat

Makes everything a bit more beautiful.

Eric Schmidt was born on April 27, 1955, which falls in a Wood Goat year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Goat readings emphasise gentleness, creativity and a preference for harmony over conflict. The Chinese almanacs describe the Goat as the artist of the cycle, kind and easily moved, and associate it with taste and care for others. The corresponding caution in the tradition is dependence: a need for reassurance that can become a reluctance to decide alone.

Life Path 6

Everyone's person. Never off duty.

Eric Schmidt's birth date, April 27, 1955, reduces to Life Path 6 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 6 readings associate the number with care, responsibility and beauty: home, family and the instinct to support the people nearby. Numerologists describe it as the path of the nurturer. The corresponding tension is over-responsibility, with the caution that carrying other people's burdens can become a way of avoiding one's own.

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Eric Schmidt, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 10° to 24° Cancer 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 5°23′ (moves 0.02° 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.

  • ⚳ CeresCapricorn 23°51′ (moves 0.13° over the day)

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

    Ceres in Capricorn is read as nurture through structure and provision. The reading has Eric caring by building something that lasts for others.

  • ♡ ErosAries 26°32′ (moves 0.74° 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. Eric is read as drawn to the chase more than the catch.

  • ⚕ Hygiea ℞Libra 9°51′ (moves 0.15° over the day)

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

    Hygiea in Libra is read as health that depends on balance and company. Eric is read as someone who wears out in conflict and recovers in harmony.

  • ⚸ Black Moon LilithSagittarius 5°16′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius is read as a refusal to be told what to believe. The reading has Eric leaving any room where the truth is decided in advance.

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.

  • Ceres opposition Uranus 0.1°
  • Eros opposition Neptune 0.1°
  • Chiron square Sun 1.2°
  • Ceres opposition Jupiter 1.3°
  • Hygiea trine Mars 1.4°
  • Black Moon Lilith trine Venus 1.6°
  • Chiron sextile Venus 1.8°
  • Eros trine Pluto 2.2°
  • Eros square Uranus 2.6°
  • Ceres square Neptune 2.8°

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°).

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. ♀ Venus6 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Taurus; disposes Sun, Mercury, Neptune

  2. 2. ☽ Moon4 pts

    in its own sign, Cancer; disposes Jupiter, Uranus

  3. 3. ♃ Jupiter3 pts

    3 major aspects

A Venus-led chart is read as taste and relationship setting the terms: Eric is read as choosing by what is beautiful and who is in the room.

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.

No stellium, grand trine, T-square, grand cross, yod or kite closes among the planets that can be placed. That is the common case, not a gap.

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 quintile Uranus 0.1°
  • Venus sesquiquadrate Saturn 0.1°
  • Mars sesquiquadrate Neptune 0.4°
  • Uranus semi-sextile Pluto 0.4°
  • Mercury semi-sextile Mars 0.6°
  • Mars quintile Pluto 1.1°
  • Mercury quintile Jupiter 1.3°
  • Jupiter semi-sextile Pluto 1.8°

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

No birth time is on public record for Eric Schmidt, 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

Eric’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q92747, 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.

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.

These are traditional interpretations, not facts or predictions. AsterNym is not affiliated with or endorsed by Eric Schmidt.
