The record

What sets Jason apart

Carl Jung (1875) and Sandra Bullock (1964) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.

What the chart says

Jason, according to the stars

Core essence

Jason is warm the way the sun is warm: not trying, just doing it. The core of Jason is a big open heart and a need to be seen loving with it. They are generous with praise, with time, with the spotlight when they trust you, and they will remember every kindness you paid them for years. Loyal to a fault, and glad of the fault.

How Jason wants to be loved

Jason wants to be loved attentively. Venus in Virgo shows love through service, the fixed thing, the remembered appointment, and wants to be loved the same way: notice what they did. Big words matter less than the follow-through. Be reliable with Jason and they will quietly make your whole life run better.

How Jason creates

How Jason 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. Jason 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: Jason is loyal to the bone, a Dog year, and their gut reaction is to protect their people. Honest, fair, a little anxious about the world, and the most dependable friend in the room. The Water year softens it: intuitive, adaptable, feeling their way through people.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 2 is the peacemaker. Jason is here to bring people together, to feel the undercurrents and smooth them, to be the reason a room works. Sensitive, diplomatic, quietly essential, and learning that their own needs count too.

Triggers

Triggers: being fenced in, and being lied to. Mars in Sagittarius fights loud, laughs it off, and is genuinely fine ten minutes later. Jason has boundless energy for anything with a horizon in it and none for the small print. Aim them at something far away and step back.

Three stars chosen from the real sky above Chicago on the night they were born. Choose the story that connects you.

A 9 p.m. reference sky, not the birth minute. Dedications are commemorative and confer no ownership of stars.

The sky over Chicago that night

Computed for 41.88°N, 9 p.m. local sky.

Overhead at Chicago at 9 p.m. that evening: Rastaban of Draco, within 15.0° of the exact zenith.

Arcturus was the brightest thing up that night, one of 86 catalog stars above the horizon.

Chicago sits at 41.9°N, low enough that no headline star is circumpolar: everything bright rises and sets there.

The trade is at the other end of the sky: nothing south of −48.1° declination ever rises from here, which puts Canopus, Rigil Kentaurus, Achernar, Hadar, Acrux, Mimosa and Toliman permanently out of view.

The Moon, 9% lit at waxing crescent, was still up; the Sun sat 7° below the horizon.

Where this comes from, and how it is worked out

Jason’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q296630 (CC0), as do the occupations, works and awards above. With no documented birth time this chart is rated X on the Rodden scale, the astrological convention for how well evidenced a birth time is. The banner above lists what that leaves out. Entries are matched to Wikidata by entity id rather than by name, kept at day precision, and dropped where sources disagree on the date.

Tropical zodiac, whole-sign houses, modern rulers. Aspects on the western_v1 orb policy; minor ones at 1.5° to 2.5°, skipped where a major already holds. Minor bodies from JPL Horizons heliocentric vectors, Lilith as mean apogee. Dominance is an AsterNym score — rulerships, dispositors, aspect count — so other methods can name a different leader.
