The record

What sets Joshua 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

Joshua, according to the stars

Core essence

Joshua 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. Joshua needs newness the way other people need sleep, and gives the people around them the gift of never being bored.

How Joshua wants to be loved

Joshua wants to be loved like home. Venus in Cancer needs to feel safe before it feels anything else, and then it feels everything. Remember the small things, meet the family, make the tea. Joshua gives care in a hundred quiet ways and needs to know it is noticed. Consistency is the romance.

How Joshua creates

How Joshua 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. Joshua 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: Joshua is free-spirited, a Horse year, and their gut reaction is to run toward the new thing. Energetic, warm, popular, honest to a fault, and impossible to keep indoors. The Earth year grounds it: practical, patient, someone people lean on.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 6 is the nurturer. Joshua is here to care, to make a home wherever they are, to be the person others come to. Responsible, warm, a little too willing to carry everyone, and learning to let themselves be looked after.

Triggers

Triggers: being ignored, or being made small. Mars in Leo means Joshua 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.

Dedicate a star to Joshua Jackson

Three stars chosen from the real sky above Vancouver 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.

If you only read one paragraph

Gemini Sun

Never finishes a book. Reads everything.

Joshua Jackson's Sun was in Gemini for the whole of June 11, 1978, 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 Horse

Can't stand still. Won't.

Joshua Jackson was born on June 11, 1978, which falls in a Earth Horse year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Horse readings emphasise energy, independence and movement: a sign happiest with somewhere to go and impatient with fences. The Chinese almanacs describe the Horse as sociable, quick and difficult to keep in one place. The corresponding caution in the tradition is inconstancy, and the habit of leaving before the work of staying has begun.

Life Path 6

Care is the whole job.

Joshua Jackson's birth date, June 11, 1978, reduces to Life Path 6 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 6 readings associate the number with care, responsibility and beauty: home, family and the instinct to support the people nearby. Numerologists describe it as the path of the nurturer. The corresponding tension is over-responsibility, with the caution that carrying other people's burdens can become a way of avoiding one's own.

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Joshua Jackson, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 20° to 2° Leo or Virgo 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.

Joshua’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.

  • ⚷ ChironTaurus 8°04′ (moves 0.05° over the day)

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

    Chiron in Taurus is read as a wound around security and worth. The reading has Joshua building steadiness by hand after finding it could not be assumed.

  • ⚳ Ceres ℞Capricorn 22°15′ (moves 0.14° 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 Joshua caring by building something that lasts for others.

  • ♡ ErosGemini 19°06′ (moves 0.88° over the day)

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

    Eros in Gemini is read as desire that starts in conversation. Joshua is read as someone for whom a quick mind is the first attraction.

  • ⚕ Hygiea ℞Sagittarius 27°27′ (moves 0.19° over the day)

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

    Hygiea in Sagittarius is read as health through movement, space and a reason. Joshua is read as someone who is well when going somewhere.

  • ⚸ Black Moon LilithCancer 16°12′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Cancer is read as the refusal to be tamed by the role of carer. The reading has Joshua guarding a private self that family did not get to name.

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.

  • Hygiea trine Mars 1.3°
  • Eros conjunction Sun 1.4°
  • Hygiea trine Saturn 1.9°
  • Eros conjunction Mercury 2.0°
  • Eros opposition Neptune 2.3°
  • Black Moon Lilith square Pluto 2.3°
  • Ceres opposition Venus 2.5°

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°).

Joshua’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. ☿ Mercury9 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Gemini; in its own sign, Gemini; disposes Sun; 3 major aspects

  2. 2. ☉ Sun4 pts

    disposes Mars, Saturn; 2 major aspects

  3. 3. ♇ Pluto4 pts

    disposes Uranus; 3 major aspects

A Mercury-led chart is read as the mind in charge: Joshua 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 Joshua’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.

  • Mars semi-square Pluto 0.2°
  • Mercury quintile Mars 0.4°
  • Venus semi-sextile Saturn 0.8°
  • Jupiter semi-square Saturn 0.9°
  • Uranus semi-sextile Pluto 1.0°

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

No birth time is on public record for Joshua Jackson, 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

Joshua’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q219653, 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.
