What the chart says
Matthew, according to the stars
Core essence
Matthew is warm the way the sun is warm: not trying, just doing it. The core of Matthew 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.
The vibe
Underneath, Matthew feels more than they will ever show, and shows it to about three people. The Moon in Scorpio is deep water: loyal, private, slow to trust and impossible to fool. What Matthew needs to feel safe is total honesty and the sense that a secret told stays told. Betray that once and it is a long way back.
How Matthew wants to be loved
Matthew 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. Matthew gives care in a hundred quiet ways and needs to know it is noticed. Consistency is the romance.
How Matthew creates
How Matthew 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. Matthew 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: Matthew is sharp and confident, a Rooster year, and their gut reaction is to say the true thing out loud. Observant, hardworking, honest, and proud of looking the part. The Earth year grounds it: practical, patient, someone people lean on.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 7 is the seeker. Matthew is here to understand, to go deep rather than wide, to keep a private inner world that most people never see. Thoughtful, intuitive, happiest with time alone, and learning to let the right people in.
Triggers
Triggers: being fenced in, and being lied to. Mars in Sagittarius fights loud, laughs it off, and is genuinely fine ten minutes later. Matthew 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.

Matthew Perry at a glance
Leo Sun
Leo SunGenerous with the spotlight, mostly.
Matthew Perry's Sun was in Leo at the documented birth time. Traditional Leo readings associate the sign with warmth, visibility and generosity: a natural claim on attention and a habit of handing it back as encouragement. Astrologers describe it as the fixed fire sign, ruled by the Sun. The corresponding tension is pride, with the classical caution that the need to be seen can crowd out people who would rather not be.
Earth Rooster
Earth RoosterPrepared for everything, twice.
Matthew Perry was born on August 19, 1969, which falls in a Earth Rooster year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Rooster readings emphasise precision, candour and pride in appearance and in work done properly. The Chinese almanacs describe the Rooster as observant and punctual, the sign that notices and says so. The corresponding caution in the tradition is vanity, and a frankness that arrives before anyone asked for it.
Life Path 7
Life Path 7Needs the quiet to work.
Matthew Perry's birth date, August 19, 1969, reduces to Life Path 7 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 7 readings associate the number with inquiry, analysis and solitude: the need to understand what others simply accept. Numerologists describe it as the path of the seeker, reflective and private. The corresponding tension is withdrawal, with the caution that a mind at home in its own company can forget to come out.

Matthew’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.
⚷ Chiron ℞Aries 6°12′ · House 9
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Aries is read as a sore spot around asserting oneself: Matthew may have learnt early that going first costs something, and built a way of leading that does not need permission.
⚳ Ceres ℞Aquarius 0°03′ · House 7
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Aquarius is read as nurture at the scale of the group. Matthew is read as someone whose care shows up as fairness to many rather than fuss over one.
♡ ErosCancer 17°24′ · House 12
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Cancer is read as desire bound up with safety and memory. Matthew is read as drawn to people who feel like somewhere to come back to.
⚕ HygieaGemini 8°45′ · House 11
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Gemini is read as health that lives in the nerves and the mind. The tradition has Matthew needing variety and enough sleep in equal measure.
⚸ Black Moon LilithCancer 17°39′ · House 12
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 Matthew 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.
- Chiron opposition Jupiter 0.5°
- Black Moon Lilith conjunction Venus 0.9°
- Eros conjunction Venus 1.2°
- Black Moon Lilith sextile Mercury 1.8°
- Hygiea sextile Ascendant 1.9°
- Ceres trine Uranus 2.0°
- Eros sextile Mercury 2.1°
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°).
Matthew’s dominant planets
Scored from rulerships, dispositors, angularity and aspect count under the method below.
1. ☉ Sun11 pts
rules the Sun sign, Leo; rules the Ascendant, Leo; in its own sign, Leo; angular in the first house; 1 major aspect
2. ♇ Pluto7 pts
rules the Moon sign, Scorpio; disposes Moon, Neptune; 2 major aspects
3. ☿ Mercury5 pts
in its own sign, Virgo; disposes Pluto; 2 major aspects
A Sun-led chart is read as identity out front: Matthew 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 Matthew’s chart
Closed shapes among the ten planets under the site’s one aspect-orb policy.
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.
