What sets Marlon apart
Study took Marlon Wayans to Howard University and Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School.
Marlon Wayans was 16 when the work began in 1988.
Haile Selassie I (1892) and Daniel Radcliffe (1989) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.

What the chart says
Marlon, according to the stars
Core essence
Marlon is warm the way the sun is warm: not trying, just doing it. The core of Marlon 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 Marlon wants to be loved
Marlon wants to be loved in conversation. Venus in Gemini falls for a mind first: the banter, the shared joke, the person who keeps them guessing a little. Attention is the love language and boredom is the enemy. Keep talking to Marlon like it is the first week, and it can feel like it for years.
How Marlon creates
How Marlon 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. Marlon 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: Marlon is quick, clever and alert, a Rat year, and their gut reaction to a problem is to find the angle nobody has tried. Charming, resourceful, a little bit of a hoarder of good things and good people. The Water year softens it: intuitive, adaptable, feeling their way through people.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 4 is the builder. Marlon is here to make things that last, to put structure under other people's dreams, to be trusted with the real work. Loyal, practical, honest, and learning that the plan can bend without breaking.
Triggers
Triggers: being ignored, or being made small. Mars in Leo means Marlon 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.

Six lines
Marlon’s dot comes from the chart; yours is where you put it.
You likely balance a tight inner circle with a wider orbit you dip into.
You likely think things through before you act. Haste rarely feels safe.
You may wear your feelings openly. What you feel tends to show.
You may want to resolve tension the moment it appears, rather than let it sit.
You likely balance practical steps with room to imagine further.
You may feel connection fast. Chemistry can arrive before the details do.

The sky over New York City that night
Computed for 40.71°N, 9 p.m. local sky.
Overhead at New York City at 9 p.m. that evening: Alphecca of Corona Borealis, within 16.0° of the exact zenith.
Arcturus was the brightest thing up that night, one of 83 catalog stars above the horizon.
New York City sits at 40.7°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 −49.3° declination ever rises from here, which puts Canopus, Rigil Kentaurus, Achernar, Hadar, Acrux, Mimosa and Toliman permanently out of view.
The Moon, 95% lit at waxing gibbous, was still up; the Sun sat 7° below the horizon.

Where this comes from, and how it is worked out
Marlon’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q310785 (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.
