The record

What sets Patrick apart

Orlando Bloom (1977) and Liam Hemsworth (1990) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.

What the chart says

Patrick, according to the stars

Core essence

Patrick is playing a longer game than everyone else at the table. The core of Patrick is quiet ambition and a dry, private sense of humour that only their people get to see. They are the one who actually does the thing, and then does not mention it. Underneath the composure is someone who wants very badly to be proud of what they built.

The vibe

Underneath, Patrick cannot fully relax while anyone in the room is unhappy. The Moon in Libra feels through harmony and hates conflict in their own house. What Patrick needs to feel safe is fairness, softness and a partner in the small decisions. They are at their best when someone else picks the restaurant and they get to enjoy it.

How Patrick wants to be loved

Patrick wants to be loved as a friend first, and then as everything. Venus in Aquarius needs freedom, conversation and a partner who finds their strangeness delightful. Rules and jealousy make them cold; acceptance makes them devoted. Let Patrick be fully themselves and they will never want to be anywhere else.

How Patrick creates

How Patrick makes things happen: they keep moving. A Yang Water day master is the river, curious, restless, going somewhere even when nobody knows where. Patrick creates by exploring, by talking to everyone, by carrying ideas from one place to another. Hard to pin down, impossible to dam, and the best person to have on a long trip.

Instinct

Instinct: Patrick is wise and watchful, a Snake year, and their gut reaction is to observe before moving. Elegant, intuitive, private, and usually right about people long before saying so. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 9 is the humanitarian. Patrick 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 told "because that's how it's done." Mars in Aquarius fights for the idea, the group, the principle, rarely for themselves. Patrick goes cool and distant rather than hot, and then does the surprising thing. Point them at a cause and they will rewrite the rules around it.

Three stars chosen from the real sky above Lewiston 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.

The quick version

Capricorn Sun

Plays the long game. Wins it.

Patrick Dempsey's Sun was in Capricorn for the whole of January 13, 1966, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Capricorn readings associate the sign with ambition, structure and the long game: building slowly toward a position that will hold. Astrologers describe it as the cardinal earth sign, ruled by Saturn, and read it for discipline and reserve. The corresponding tension is severity, described in the tradition as a seriousness that can be turned on the self as hard as on the work.

Wood Snake

Says less than it knows.

Patrick Dempsey was born on January 13, 1966, which falls in a Wood Snake year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Snake readings emphasise intelligence, composure and depth: thinking before speaking, and speaking less than it knows. The Chinese almanacs describe the Snake as the sage of the cycle, private and deliberate. The corresponding caution in the tradition is suspicion, with a tendency to hold a grudge as carefully as it holds a secret.

Life Path 9

Gives without keeping score.

Patrick Dempsey's birth date, January 13, 1966, reduces to Life Path 9 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 9 readings associate the number with compassion, generosity and completion: a wide view that takes in more than one person's experience. Numerologists describe it as the path of the humanitarian, the last single digit and the one that closes cycles. The corresponding tension is diffuseness, with the caution that caring about everyone can be easier than showing up for someone.

Patrick’s birth chart

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Patrick Dempsey, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 14° to 28° Libra 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.

Aspects across every possible birth time

Stable aspects hold for any birth hour. Possible ones depend on the hour, so their orb is a range rather than a number. Orb policy western_v1.

Patrick’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.

  • ⚷ ChironPisces 18°55′ (moves 0.04° over the day)

    centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it

    Chiron in Pisces is read as a wound around boundaries and faith. The reading has Patrick absorbing more of a room than most, and needing somewhere to put it down.

  • ⚳ CeresPisces 29°44′ (moves 0.29° over the day)

    dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured

    Ceres in Pisces is read as nurture without a boundary: Patrick is read as someone who feels what others need before they say it, and can give past the point of sense.

  • ♡ ErosAries 6°05′ (moves 0.69° 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. Patrick is read as drawn to the chase more than the catch.

  • ⚕ HygieaLibra 2°15′ (moves 0.08° over the day)

    main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well

    Hygiea in Libra is read as health that depends on balance and company. Patrick is read as someone who wears out in conflict and recovers in harmony.

  • ⚸ Black Moon LilithAquarius 21°18′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius is read as the outsider who chose it. The modern reading has Patrick at odds with the group on principle and rarely lonely about it.

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.

  • Black Moon Lilith square Neptune 0.4°
  • Chiron opposition Uranus 0.5°
  • Chiron opposition Pluto 0.6°
  • Black Moon Lilith trine Jupiter 1.7°
  • Eros square Mercury 2.7°
  • Chiron trine Neptune 2.8°

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°).

Patrick’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. ♄ Saturn7 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Capricorn; disposes Sun, Mercury; 2 major aspects

  2. 2. ♅ Uranus7 pts

    disposes Venus, Mars; 5 major aspects

  3. 3. ♇ Pluto6 pts

    disposes Neptune; 5 major aspects

A Saturn-led chart is read as structure and endurance leading: Patrick is read as someone who builds slowly and keeps what is built.

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 Patrick’s chart

No birth time is on public record for Patrick Dempsey, 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

Patrick’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q212518, 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.
