The record
What sets Hugh apart
Peter Dinklage (1969) and Claire Holt (1988) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.
What the chart says
Hugh, according to the stars
Core essence
Hugh is two conversations at once and somehow following both. Curiosity is the core of it: the quick question, the sideways joke, the friend who texts you an article at midnight because it reminded them of you. Hugh needs newness the way other people need sleep, and gives the people around them the gift of never being bored.
The vibe
Underneath, Hugh 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 Hugh 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 Hugh wants to be loved
Hugh wants to be loved out loud. Venus in Leo is warm, generous and a little theatrical, and it wants a partner who is proud to be seen with them. Praise is oxygen, loyalty is the deal. Adore Hugh openly and they will make you feel like the only person in every room.
How Hugh creates
How Hugh makes things happen: they grow upward. A Yang Wood day master is the tree, the one with a direction and the patience to keep at it through a bad season. Hugh builds in the open, wants to be useful, and is at their most creative when there is something to reach for. Bend rather than break is the lesson they learn a few times.
Instinct
Instinct: Hugh 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 5 is the free spirit. Hugh is here to explore, to change, to taste everything and report back. Adventure, variety and freedom are not distractions from their purpose, they are it. The lesson is choosing, sometimes, and staying.
Triggers
Triggers: being ignored, or being made small. Mars in Leo means Hugh fights with pride and flair and needs the win to be seen. Generous in victory, dramatic in defeat, and never, ever petty for long. Give them the stage and the fire becomes warmth.

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

Dedications are commemorative AsterNym records and do not rename or confer ownership of stars.
The quick version
Gemini Sun
Gemini SunFascinating, then gone.
Hugh Laurie's Sun was in Gemini for the whole of June 11, 1959, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Gemini readings associate the sign with curiosity, conversation and range: several interests held at once and a talent for connecting people and ideas. Astrologers describe it as the mutable air sign, ruled by Mercury. The corresponding tension is restlessness, with the classical caution that the next subject is always more interesting than finishing the current one.
Earth Pig
Earth PigTrusts easily. Rarely regrets it.
Hugh Laurie was born on June 11, 1959, 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 5
Life Path 5Can't sit still. Won't try.
Hugh Laurie's birth date, June 11, 1959, reduces to Life Path 5 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 5 readings associate the number with freedom, change and variety: movement, new experience and resistance to restrictive routine. Numerologists describe it as the path of the traveller, adaptable and restless. The corresponding tension is instability, with the caution that constant motion can become a way of avoiding commitment to any one direction.
What stands out in Hugh’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Hugh Laurie's date-only chart is Venus square Neptune, with an orb of under 1°.
- Three planets, Venus, Mars and Uranus, sit together in Leo, which astrologers call a stellium.
- Six of the ten planets fall in Fixed signs, making Fixed the strongest modality in this chart.
- Hugh Laurie combines a Wood Day Master in BaZi with a mutable Sun and a Life Path on the physical plane, the combination AsterNym calls The Evergreen Explorer.
Hugh’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Hugh Laurie, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 9° to 22° 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.
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.

Hugh’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.
⚷ Chiron ℞Aquarius 27°37′ (moves 0.01° 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 Hugh making a place among outsiders and keeping the door open for the next one.
⚳ Ceres ℞Scorpio 15°43′ (moves 0.12° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Scorpio is read as nurture that goes all in: loyalty, intensity, a care that does not do halfway. Hugh is read as fierce about the people counted as theirs.
♡ ErosLeo 23°37′ (moves 0.88° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Leo is read as desire that wants to be adored and to adore in return. The reading has Hugh loving with an audience in mind, even an audience of one.
⚕ HygieaCancer 8°15′ (moves 0.33° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Cancer is read as health tied to home, mood and belonging. Hugh is read as someone who does not thrive far from a base.
⚸ Black Moon LilithTaurus 23°01′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus is read as an unbargained appetite: for pleasure, for ownership, for a body that answers to nobody. Hugh is read as immovable on those points.
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 square Jupiter 0.7°
- Black Moon Lilith opposition Jupiter 1.3°
- Chiron trine Mercury 2.1°
- Ceres square Uranus 2.3°
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°).
Hugh’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. ☿ Mercury10 pts
rules the Sun sign, Gemini; in its own sign, Gemini; disposes Sun, Pluto; 3 major aspects
2. ♄ Saturn5 pts
in its own sign, Capricorn; 3 major aspects
3. ♆ Neptune5 pts
5 major aspects
A Mercury-led chart is read as the mind in charge: Hugh is read as thinking, talking and connecting their way through life.
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 Hugh’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.
- Sun semi-square Venus 0.1°
- Sun quintile Pluto 0.1°
- Venus quincunx Saturn 0.1°
- Sun sesquiquadrate Neptune 0.3°
- Mercury biquintile Jupiter 0.6°
- Mercury semi-square Uranus 1.3°
- Sun semi-square Mars 1.4°
- Mars quincunx Saturn 1.4°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Hugh Laurie, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

No birth time is on public record for Hugh Laurie, 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
Hugh’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q49017, 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.
