What the chart says

George, according to the stars

Core essence

George is the friend who says "let's just go" and means today. The core of George is faith that the world is bigger and better than the room they are in, and a restlessness to go and check. They are honest to the point of it being a sport, funny by accident, and impossible to keep small. Freedom is not a preference, it is oxygen.

How George wants to be loved

George wants to be loved seriously. Venus in Capricorn is slow to open and then loyal for life, and it shows love by building: the plan, the future, the thing that lasts. Respect is the romance. Show George you are in it for real and the reserve melts into a warmth almost nobody else gets to see.

How George creates

How George 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. George 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: George 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 Metal year sharpens it: principled, determined, clear about what is right.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 3 is the creative. George is here to express, to make, to say the thing in a way nobody has said it before. Joy is the work: the writing, the performing, the making people laugh. The lesson is finishing what the spark started.

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. George 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.

George Porter in 15 seconds

Sagittarius Sun

Needs a horizon, any horizon.

George Porter's Sun was in Sagittarius for the whole of December 6, 1920, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Sagittarius readings associate the sign with distance, belief and candour: travel, big questions and an answer given before it was asked for. Astrologers describe it as the mutable fire sign, ruled by Jupiter, and read it for optimism and appetite. The corresponding tension is overreach, with the classical caution that the horizon is more attractive than the ground underfoot.

Metal Monkey

Turns problems into games.

George Porter was born on December 6, 1920, which falls in a Metal 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 3

Charm with a deadline problem.

George Porter's birth date, December 6, 1920, reduces to Life Path 3 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 3 readings associate the number with expression: words, humour, performance and making things. Numerologists describe it as the path of the communicator, sociable and quick. The corresponding tension is dispersal, with the caution that many things begun and few finished is the classical pattern the tradition warns this number about.

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for George Porter, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 23° to 6° Libra or Scorpio 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.

George’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.

  • ChironAries 6°02′ (moves 0.01° over the day)

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

    Chiron in Aries is read as a sore spot around asserting oneself: George may have learnt early that going first costs something, and built a way of leading that does not need permission.

  • CeresCancer 7°00′ (moves 0.19° over the day)

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

    Ceres in Cancer sits in the sign the tradition links to it most closely: care as instinct. George is read as someone for whom looking after others is not a decision.

  • ErosSagittarius 4°58′ (moves 0.69° over the day)

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

    Eros in Sagittarius is read as desire for the far-off and the free. The reading has George attracted to people who open a door rather than close one.

  • HygieaVirgo 3°60′ (moves 0.13° over the day)

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

    Hygiea in Virgo sits in the sign the tradition links to it most closely: health as maintenance. George is read as attentive to small signals and prone to over-attending.

  • Black Moon LilithCapricorn 16°01′ (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. George 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 orb. The Moon is left out because its position moves 13° across an untimed day.

  • Chiron sextile Mars 0.8°
  • Ceres conjunction Pluto 1.3°
  • Black Moon Lilith trine Jupiter 1.6°
  • Eros sextile Mars 1.9°
  • Hygiea opposition Uranus 2.0°
  • Chiron square Pluto 2.3°
  • Eros square Uranus 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°).

George’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. Jupiter7 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Sagittarius; disposes Sun; 3 major aspects

  2. 2. Mercury4 pts

    disposes Jupiter, Saturn; 2 major aspects

  3. 3. Saturn4 pts

    disposes Venus; 3 major aspects

A Jupiter-led chart is read as scale and optimism leading: George is read as reaching for the bigger version of any plan.

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 George’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 sesquiquadrate Pluto 0.7°
  • Mercury quintile Mars 0.9°
  • Mars quincunx Pluto 1.5°

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

Born the same day as George

Dave Brubeck was born on December 6, 1920 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 George Porter, 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

George’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q106762, 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.
