What the chart says

Lewis, according to the stars

Core essence

Lewis is playing a longer game than everyone else at the table. The core of Lewis is quiet ambition and a dry, private sense of humour that only their people get to see. They are the one who actually does the thing, and then does not mention it. Underneath the composure is someone who wants very badly to be proud of what they built.

The vibe

Underneath, Lewis is quietly running a checklist, and half of it is about you. The Moon in Virgo feels care as responsibility: did you eat, did you get home, is the thing you were worried about handled. What Lewis needs to feel safe is order and the sense of being useful. Let them help, and thank them properly.

How Lewis wants to be loved

Lewis 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 Lewis and watch them fall for you again.

How Lewis creates

How Lewis makes things happen: they light the room. A Yang Fire day master is the sun, warm, visible, impossible to ignore, generous with energy and expecting the same back. Lewis creates in front of people and is at their best with an audience and a cause. The work is learning to rest before the fire does it for them.

Instinct

Instinct: Lewis is bold, a Tiger year, and their gut reaction is to leap. Brave, generous, a bit dramatic, magnetic to be around, and never boring for a second. The Earth year grounds it: practical, patient, someone people lean on.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 5 is the free spirit. Lewis 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: betrayal, and being handled. Mars in Scorpio means Lewis runs hot underneath and cold on top; the anger is quiet, deep and long-remembered. They do not lose their temper, they decide. Point that focus at a goal and nothing survives in its way.

Lewis M. Simons in 15 seconds

Capricorn Sun

Ambition wearing a plain coat.

Lewis M. Simons's Sun was in Capricorn for the whole of January 9, 1939, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Capricorn readings associate the sign with ambition, structure and the long game: building slowly toward a position that will hold. Astrologers describe it as the cardinal earth sign, ruled by Saturn, and read it for discipline and reserve. The corresponding tension is severity, described in the tradition as a seriousness that can be turned on the self as hard as on the work.

Earth Tiger

Big heart, short fuse.

Lewis M. Simons was born on January 9, 1939, which falls in a Earth Tiger year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Tiger readings emphasise courage, presence and the willingness to go first. The Chinese almanacs describe the Tiger as the sign others follow, bright and impulsive, at its best when the stakes are high. The corresponding caution in the tradition is burnout: a sign that burns brightly and, without pacing, burns out, with little left in reserve for the long middle of things.

Life Path 5

Restless, curious, gone.

Lewis M. Simons's birth date, January 9, 1939, 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.

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Lewis M. Simons, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 4° to 19° 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.

    Lewis’s mind grinds against their imagination.

  • stableMarsoppositionUranus3.7° to 4.3° orb

Lewis’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 ℞Cancer 6°21′ (moves 0.07° over the day)

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

    Chiron in Cancer is read as a wound around belonging and being looked after. Lewis is read as someone who learnt to make a home for others before finding one.

  • ⚳ CeresTaurus 14°08′ (moves 0.05° over the day)

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

    Ceres in Taurus is read as nurture through the physical: food, comfort, a steady presence. Lewis is read as someone who shows care by providing.

  • ♡ ErosAquarius 2°07′ (moves 0.59° over the day)

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

    Eros in Aquarius is read as desire for the unusual and the friend-first bond. Lewis is read as needing a shared idea before a shared bed.

  • ⚕ HygieaSagittarius 12°15′ (moves 0.40° 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. Lewis is read as someone who is well when going somewhere.

  • ⚸ Black Moon LilithAquarius 2°12′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius is read as the outsider who chose it. The modern reading has Lewis at odds with the group on principle and rarely lonely about it.

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.

  • Ceres conjunction Uranus 0.2°
  • Hygiea trine Saturn 0.4°
  • Eros opposition Pluto 1.5°
  • Black Moon Lilith sextile Venus 1.5°
  • Eros sextile Venus 1.6°
  • Black Moon Lilith opposition Pluto 1.6°

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°).

Lewis’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. ☉ Sun4 pts

    disposes Pluto; 3 major aspects

  2. 2. ♄ Saturn4 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Capricorn; disposes Sun

  3. 3. ♀ Venus3 pts

    disposes Uranus; 2 major aspects

A Sun-led chart is read as identity out front: Lewis is read as someone whose sense of self organises everything else.

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 Lewis’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°
  • Mars biquintile Saturn 0.1°
  • Jupiter quintile Uranus 0.3°
  • Sun semi-square Jupiter 1.4°
  • Jupiter quincunx Pluto 1.5°

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

No birth time is on public record for Lewis M. Simons, 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

Lewis’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q50409668, 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.

The same Lewis M. Simons at Wikipedia.

Roster last reviewed September 10, 2026. Every entry is checked against its Wikidata record; where a person shares a name with someone else, the entity id is what settles which of them this is. What we will not tell you sets out the claims this site refuses to make.
