What the chart says
Jack, according to the stars
Core essence
Jack does not do surface. The core of Jack is intensity, the kind that wants the real story and can tell when it is not getting it. They love completely or not at all, keep their own counsel, and have a private loyalty that runs deeper than anyone outside it will ever know. Trust from Jack is earned slowly and never given lightly.
The vibe
Underneath, Jack feels more than they will ever show, and shows it to about three people. The Moon in Scorpio is deep water: loyal, private, slow to trust and impossible to fool. What Jack needs to feel safe is total honesty and the sense that a secret told stays told. Betray that once and it is a long way back.
How Jack wants to be loved
Jack wants to be loved by someone who is also their favourite travel companion. Venus in Sagittarius needs laughter, honesty and a long leash, and gives the same. Possessiveness kills it; adventure feeds it. Go somewhere new with Jack and watch them fall for you again.
How Jack creates
How Jack 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. Jack 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: Jack 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 Water year softens it: intuitive, adaptable, feeling their way through people.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 7 is the seeker. Jack 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: unfairness, and being forced to pick a side. Mars in Libra hates open conflict and will negotiate for hours to avoid it, then dig in absolutely when a principle is at stake. Jack fights for balance. The lesson is that sometimes the fair thing is to just say no.

The quick version
Scorpio Sun
Scorpio SunIntense, private, loyal.
Jack Kilby's Sun was in Scorpio for the whole of November 8, 1923, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Scorpio readings associate the sign with intensity, depth and strong loyalties: few bonds, held completely. Astrologers describe it as the fixed water sign, traditionally ruled by Mars and in modern practice by Pluto, and read it for privacy and resolve. The corresponding tension is the tendency to guard trust closely and to remember what was done with it.
Water Pig
Water PigAssumes the best. Usually right.
Jack Kilby was born on November 8, 1923, which falls in a Water 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 7Digs under every answer.
Jack Kilby's birth date, November 8, 1923, 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.
What stands out in Jack’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Jack Kilby's date-only chart is Mercury trine Pluto, with an orb of about 1°.
- Three planets, Sun, Mercury and Jupiter, sit together in Scorpio, which astrologers call a stellium.
- Five of the ten planets fall in Fixed signs, making Fixed the strongest modality in this chart.
- Jack Kilby combines a Wood Day Master in BaZi with a fixed Sun and a Life Path on the intuitive plane, the combination AsterNym calls The Evergreen Lightkeeper.

Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Jack Kilby, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 9° to 24° 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.

Jack’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 ℞Aries 17°35′ (moves 0.04° 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: Jack may have learnt early that going first costs something, and built a way of leading that does not need permission.
⚳ CeresAquarius 6°27′ (moves 0.23° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Aquarius is read as nurture at the scale of the group. Jack is read as someone whose care shows up as fairness to many rather than fuss over one.
♡ ErosLeo 11°48′ (moves 0.92° 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 Jack loving with an audience in mind, even an audience of one.
⚕ HygieaPisces 3°21′ (moves 0.08° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Pisces is read as health that rises and falls with what is absorbed from others. The reading has Jack needing solitude to reset.
⚸ Black Moon LilithTaurus 14°55′ (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. Jack 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.
- Black Moon Lilith opposition Sun 0.4°
- Eros square Mercury 0.9°
- Black Moon Lilith sextile Uranus 1.2°
- Eros sextile Mars 2.0°
- Chiron trine Neptune 2.7°
- Hygiea square Venus 2.7°
- Black Moon Lilith sextile Pluto 2.7°
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°).
Jack’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. ♇ Pluto10 pts
rules the Sun sign, Scorpio; disposes Sun, Mercury, Jupiter; 4 major aspects
2. ☉ Sun5 pts
disposes Neptune; 4 major aspects
3. ☿ Mercury3 pts
3 major aspects
A Pluto-led chart is read as intensity and transformation leading: Jack is read as someone who does not do things by half and rebuilds after every ending.
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 Jack’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.

Astrologers read it as ease and talent that can go unexercised.- Grand trine · Mercury, Uranus, PlutoThree planets each 120° apart, a closed triangle of trines.

Where this data comes from
Jack’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q182031, 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.
