What the chart says
Marc, according to the stars
Core essence
Marc makes the room fairer just by being in it. The core of Marc is a feel for balance, in people, in colour, in who has not been asked their opinion yet. They are charming because they are genuinely interested, and they can see every side of a thing, which is a gift and, on a bad day, a very slow way to choose dinner.
How Marc wants to be loved
Marc 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 Marc openly and they will make you feel like the only person in every room.
How Marc creates
How Marc makes things happen: they hold the flame steady. A Yin Fire day master is the candle, the lamp, the light that is close and personal rather than blazing. Marc creates intimacy, one room, one conversation, one person made to feel seen. Moody when the fuel runs low, magnetic when it does not.
Instinct
Instinct: Marc is larger than life, a Dragon year, and their gut reaction is to go big. Confident, lucky, a natural at the centre of things, and warm-hearted underneath the spectacle. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 9 is the humanitarian. Marc is here for the bigger picture, to give, to finish what others started and hand it on. Wise beyond their years, compassionate, a little world-weary, and learning to receive as freely as they give.
Triggers
Triggers: being ignored, or being made small. Mars in Leo means Marc 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.

The sky over San Francisco that night
Computed for 37.78°N, 9 p.m. local sky.
At 9 p.m. the star closest to straight overhead at San Francisco was Sadr, in Cygnus, 86.9° up.
Arcturus was the brightest thing up that night, one of 88 catalog stars above the horizon.
San Francisco sits at 37.8°N, low enough that no headline star is circumpolar: everything bright rises and sets there.
Nothing below −52.2° declination clears the horizon at this latitude, so Canopus, Rigil Kentaurus, Achernar, Hadar, Acrux, Mimosa and Toliman were never visible from San Francisco on any night.
The Moon, 77% lit at waning gibbous, had already set; the Sun sat 23° below the horizon.

Where this comes from, and how it is worked out
Marc’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q1521908 (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.
