What the chart says
Eric, according to the stars
Core essence
Eric is two steps to the left of where you expected. The core of Eric is a mind that runs on its own current, cares about the whole picture, and cannot pretend to care about the rules for their own sake. They are friend to everyone and fully known by few, and they make the people around them braver about being odd.
The vibe
Underneath, Eric is steadier than they let on and more tender than they let on, both at once. The Moon in Capricorn feels deeply and privately, and would rather fix the problem than talk about the feeling. What Eric needs to feel safe is reliability and respect. They soften completely for the people who earn it.
How Eric creates
How Eric makes things happen: they seep in. A Yin Water day master is rain, mist, the still pool that reflects everything. Eric creates by sensing, by imagination, by noticing what nobody else said. Their influence is quiet and total. The work is not dissolving into everyone else's weather.
Instinct
Instinct: Eric is warm and generous, a Pig year, and their gut reaction is to trust. Big-hearted, fun, sincere, a lover of good things, and deserving of people who are as honest as they are. The Earth year grounds it: practical, patient, someone people lean on.
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: incompetence, and disrespect. Mars in Capricorn means Eric does not waste energy on anger; they use it. Controlled, strategic, relentless, the person who will outlast the problem. Cold when crossed, and quietly forgiving once you have earned it back.

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.
You may be drawn to big possibilities. The practical follows after the vision.
You likely warm up at a pace that depends on the person and moment.

Dedicate a star to Eric Smidt
Three stars chosen from the real sky above Los Angeles on the night they were born. Choose the story that connects you.
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.
Aquarius Sun
Aquarius SunCares about everyone, needs space.
Eric Smidt's Sun was in Aquarius for the whole of January 26, 1960, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Aquarius readings associate the sign with independence, ideas and a stance slightly apart from the group it belongs to. Astrologers describe it as the fixed air sign, traditionally ruled by Saturn and in modern practice by Uranus, and read it for principle and originality. The corresponding tension is detachment, with the classical caution that caring about everyone can be easier than being close to anyone.
Earth Pig
Earth PigGenerous to the last coin.
Eric Smidt was born on January 26, 1960, which falls in a Earth Pig year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Pig readings emphasise generosity, sincerity and an appetite for the good things, shared. The Chinese almanacs describe the Pig as the most open-handed sign in the cycle, trusting and hard to anger. The corresponding caution in the tradition is naivety, and a difficulty believing that anyone would take advantage of that trust.
Life Path 7
Life Path 7Needs the quiet to work.
Eric Smidt's birth date, January 26, 1960, 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 Smidt, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 8° to 23° Capricorn 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.

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 26°00′ (moves 0.07° 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 19°41′ (moves 0.40° 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.
♡ ErosAquarius 1°13′ (moves 0.59° 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.
⚕ Hygiea ℞Leo 27°03′ (moves 0.17° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Leo is read as vitality that runs on purpose and recognition. The reading has Eric at their best with something to be proud of.
⚸ Black Moon LilithGemini 18°34′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini is read as the part of Eric that says the unsayable and does not take it back.
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.
- Black Moon Lilith sextile Uranus 1.0°
- Chiron sextile Jupiter 1.9°
- Hygiea trine Venus 2.5°
- Hygiea trine Jupiter 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. ♄ Saturn7.5 pts
traditionally rules the Sun sign, Aquarius; in its own sign, Capricorn; disposes Mars; 3 major aspects
2. ♅ Uranus6 pts
rules the Sun sign, Aquarius; disposes Sun, Mercury; 1 major aspect
3. ♃ Jupiter5 pts
in its own sign, Sagittarius; disposes Venus; 2 major aspects
A Saturn-led chart is read as structure and endurance leading: Eric is read as someone who builds slowly and keeps what is built.
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.
- Jupiter semi-square Neptune 0.0°
- Sun quincunx Pluto 0.3°
- Mercury quincunx Pluto 0.4°
- Saturn biquintile Uranus 1.1°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Eric Smidt, 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 Q5387535, 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.
