Nick Carter’s AsterNym identity
The Gilded Lightkeeper
Metal represents precision. Metal-led charts are associated with standards, boundaries, discernment and the ability to remove what is unnecessary. Life Path 11 is traditionally called a master path. It represents intuition, sensitivity and noticing patterns before they become obvious.

The record
What sets Nick apart
Elijah Wood (1981) and Carlos Slim (1940) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.
What the chart says
Nick, according to the stars
Core essence
Nick is two steps to the left of where you expected. The core of Nick is a mind that runs on its own current, cares about the whole picture, and cannot pretend to care about the rules for their own sake. They are friend to everyone and fully known by few, and they make the people around them braver about being odd.
How Nick wants to be loved
Nick wants to be loved tenderly. Venus in Pisces is the romantic of the zodiac: soft, giving, a little dreamy, and easily bruised. They love without keeping score and need a partner who will not take advantage of that. Be gentle with Nick, be honest, and they will make the ordinary feel enchanted.
How Nick creates
How Nick makes things happen: they cut to it. A Yang Metal day master is the sword, decisive, principled, allergic to nonsense. Nick creates by clarifying, by deciding, by being the one who says what the thing actually is. Sharp with themselves first. The work is remembering that not every problem needs a blade.
Instinct
Instinct: Nick is creative and kind, a Goat year, and their gut reaction is to make it beautiful. Artistic, gentle, easily moved, and the friend everyone confides in. The Earth year grounds it: practical, patient, someone people lean on.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 11 is the visionary, a master number. Nick is here to see what others cannot yet and to say it, an antenna for the mood of the moment. Intuitive, inspiring, sometimes overwhelmed by their own sensitivity, and learning to ground the vision in something real.
Triggers
Triggers: sloppiness, and being told they are overthinking it. Mars in Virgo means Nick channels energy into fixing, sorting, getting it right, and gets sharp when others do not care. The critic turns inward first. Give them a problem worth solving and watch them come alive.

Nick Carter at a glance
Aquarius Sun
Aquarius SunAhead of the room by a decade.
Nick Carter's Sun was in Aquarius for the whole of January 28, 1980, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Aquarius readings associate the sign with independence, ideas and a stance slightly apart from the group it belongs to. Astrologers describe it as the fixed air sign, traditionally ruled by Saturn and in modern practice by Uranus, and read it for principle and originality. The corresponding tension is detachment, with the classical caution that caring about everyone can be easier than being close to anyone.
Earth Goat
Earth GoatKind, and quietly tough.
Nick Carter was born on January 28, 1980, which falls in a Earth Goat year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Goat readings emphasise gentleness, creativity and a preference for harmony over conflict. The Chinese almanacs describe the Goat as the artist of the cycle, kind and easily moved, and associate it with taste and care for others. The corresponding caution in the tradition is dependence: a need for reassurance that can become a reluctance to decide alone.
Life Path 11
Life Path 11Receives more than it reasons.
Nick Carter's birth date, January 28, 1980, reduces to Life Path 11 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 11 readings treat the number as a master path, associated with intuition, sensitivity and noticing patterns before they become obvious. Numerologists read it as an intensified 2: the partner's gifts under pressure. The corresponding tension is nervous strain, with the caution that perceiving more than most people can be exhausting to carry.
What stands out in Nick’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Nick Carter's date-only chart is Neptune sextile Pluto, with an orb of under 1°.
- Three planets, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, sit together in Virgo, which astrologers call a stellium.
- Six of the ten planets fall in Mutable signs, making Mutable the strongest modality in this chart.
- Nick Carter combines a Metal Day Master in BaZi with a fixed Sun and a Life Path on the intuitive plane, the combination AsterNym calls The Gilded Lightkeeper.
Nick’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Nick Carter, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 22° to 5° Gemini or Cancer 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.

Nick’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.
⚷ ChironTaurus 9°11′ (moves 0.01° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Taurus is read as a wound around security and worth. The reading has Nick building steadiness by hand after finding it could not be assumed.
⚳ CeresAries 16°04′ (moves 0.29° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Aries is read as nurture through action: Nick looks after people by pushing them forward and expects the same in return.
♡ ErosAries 4°20′ (moves 0.71° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Aries is read as desire that moves first and asks later. Nick is read as drawn to the chase more than the catch.
⚕ HygieaAries 2°11′ (moves 0.28° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Aries is read as health kept through action and short bursts. The reading has Nick feeling well when moving and poorly when made to wait.
⚸ Black Moon LilithVirgo 22°35′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Virgo is read as a refusal of the standard of good enough, turned both outward and inward. The modern reading has Nick exacting with themselves first.
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.
- Chiron trine Jupiter 0.6°
- Black Moon Lilith square Neptune 0.8°
- Chiron square Sun 1.2°
- Black Moon Lilith sextile Uranus 2.5°
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°).
Nick’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. ♅ Uranus6 pts
rules the Sun sign, Aquarius; disposes Sun, Mercury; 1 major aspect
2. ☿ Mercury4 pts
disposes Mars, Jupiter, Saturn; 1 major aspect
3. ♄ Saturn3.5 pts
traditionally rules the Sun sign, Aquarius; 2 major aspects
A Uranus-led chart is read as the break from pattern leading: Nick is read as someone who changes course before others see the need.
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 Nick’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 biquintile Mars 0.4°
- Venus biquintile Pluto 0.5°
- Sun quincunx Jupiter 0.6°
- Sun quintile Uranus 0.8°
- Sun semi-square Neptune 1.1°
- Mars quintile Uranus 1.2°
- Mercury quincunx Mars 1.3°
- Mercury sesquiquadrate Saturn 1.4°
- Jupiter semi-square Pluto 1.8°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Nick Carter, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

Where this data comes from
Nick’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q214466, 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.
