The record

What sets Matthew apart

Narendra Modi (1950) and Slayyyter (1996) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.

What the chart says

Matthew, according to the stars

Core essence

Matthew notices. That is the whole thing: the detail everyone else walked past, the small fix that makes the day work, the way you looked slightly off when you said you were fine. The core of Matthew is devotion expressed as usefulness. They love by improving things, and they are far kinder to other people than to themselves.

How Matthew wants to be loved

Matthew 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 Matthew openly and they will make you feel like the only person in every room.

How Matthew creates

How Matthew 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. Matthew 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: 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 6 is the nurturer. Matthew 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 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.

Three stars chosen from the real sky above Hickory 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.

Matthew Settle at a glance

Virgo Sun

Sees the typo from across the room.

Matthew Settle's Sun was in Virgo for the whole of September 17, 1969, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Virgo readings associate the sign with precision, service and improvement: noticing what is off and quietly putting it right. Astrologers describe it as the mutable earth sign, ruled by Mercury, and read it for craft and analysis. The corresponding tension is perfectionism, described in the tradition as a standard applied hardest to the self.

Earth Rooster

Prepared for everything, twice.

Matthew Settle was born on September 17, 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 6

Feeds the room, forgets to eat.

Matthew Settle's birth date, September 17, 1969, 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.

Matthew’s birth chart

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Matthew Settle, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 29° to 12° Scorpio or Sagittarius 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.

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. Without a birth time the degree is the noon value and the day's movement is shown alongside it.

  • ⚷ Chiron ℞Aries 5°03′ (moves 0.04° over the day)

    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.

  • ⚳ CeresCapricorn 27°35′

    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 Matthew caring by building something that lasts for others.

  • ♡ ErosLeo 14°19′ (moves 0.93° over the day)

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

    Eros in Leo is read as desire that wants to be adored and to adore in return. The reading has Matthew loving with an audience in mind, even an audience of one.

  • ⚕ HygieaGemini 12°50′ (moves 0.08° over the day)

    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 20°55′ (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 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. The Moon is left out because its position moves 13° across an untimed day.

  • Eros sextile Mercury 0.5°
  • Ceres sextile Neptune 1.2°
  • Hygiea trine Jupiter 1.2°
  • Chiron opposition Uranus 1.3°
  • Hygiea trine Mercury 2.0°
  • Ceres trine Pluto 2.7°
  • Eros sextile Jupiter 2.7°
  • Ceres trine Sun 3.0°

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 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. ☿ Mercury6 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Virgo; disposes Sun, Pluto; 1 major aspect

  2. 2. ♀ Venus6 pts

    disposes Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus; 2 major aspects

  3. 3. ☉ Sun4 pts

    disposes Venus; 3 major aspects

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

  • Jupiter semi-square Neptune 0.3°
  • Mercury quintile Mars 1.0°
  • Sun semi-sextile Venus 1.2°
  • Sun sesquiquadrate Saturn 1.3°
  • Mars semi-sextile Neptune 1.4°
  • Saturn biquintile Uranus 1.5°
  • Venus semi-sextile Pluto 1.6°
  • Saturn sesquiquadrate Pluto 1.6°

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

No birth time is on public record for Matthew Settle, 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

Matthew’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q542843, 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.
