What the chart says

Patrick, according to the stars

Core essence

Patrick feels everything, and it is the best and hardest thing about them. The core of Patrick is imagination with a soft heart behind it: the daydream, the creative pull, the instinct that knows how someone is doing before they do. They absorb the mood of a room and give back something kinder. Their softness is not weakness, it is the whole point.

How Patrick wants to be loved

Patrick 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 Patrick, be honest, and they will make the ordinary feel enchanted.

How Patrick creates

How Patrick makes things happen: they are the ground everyone else stands on. A Yang Earth day master is the mountain, reliable, slow to move, immovable once it has. Patrick creates by holding: the plan, the people, the standard. They are trusted before they have said a word, and the work is remembering that mountains are allowed to want things too.

Instinct

Instinct: Patrick is larger than life, a Dragon year, and their gut reaction is to go big. Confident, lucky, a natural at the centre of things, and warm-hearted underneath the spectacle. The Earth year grounds it: practical, patient, someone people lean on.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 6 is the nurturer. Patrick 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 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.

Dedicate a star to Patrick McGoohan

Three stars chosen from the real sky above Astoria 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.

Pisces Sun

Dreams in full colour.

Patrick McGoohan's Sun was in Pisces for the whole of March 19, 1928, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Pisces readings associate the sign with imagination, empathy and permeable boundaries: absorbing the mood of a place and turning it into something. Astrologers describe it as the mutable water sign, traditionally ruled by Jupiter and in modern practice by Neptune. The corresponding tension is drift, described in the tradition as a difficulty telling one's own feelings from everyone else's.

Earth Dragon

Confident before the proof.

Patrick McGoohan was born on March 19, 1928, which falls in a Earth Dragon year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Dragon readings emphasise confidence, luck and scale: the only mythical animal in the cycle, associated with ambition and with attention that arrives whether or not it was sought. The Chinese almanacs describe the Dragon as the sign of large gestures. The corresponding caution in the tradition is arrogance, and a difficulty with tasks too small to be seen.

Life Path 6

Care is the whole job.

Patrick McGoohan's birth date, March 19, 1928, 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.

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Patrick McGoohan, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 22° to 6° Aquarius or Pisces 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.

  • ChironTaurus 3°26′ (moves 0.05° 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 Patrick building steadiness by hand after finding it could not be assumed.

  • CeresAquarius 21°28′ (moves 0.36° over the day)

    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. Patrick is read as someone whose care shows up as fairness to many rather than fuss over one.

  • ErosAquarius 4°33′ (moves 0.54° over the day)

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

    Eros in Aquarius is read as desire for the unusual and the friend-first bond. Patrick is read as needing a shared idea before a shared bed.

  • HygieaCapricorn 17°05′ (moves 0.30° over the day)

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

    Hygiea in Capricorn is read as health as discipline and a long game. Patrick is read as someone who keeps going past the point others stop, for better and worse.

  • Black Moon LilithScorpio 12°22′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio is read as power the person has stopped apologising for. Patrick is read as someone others project onto, and who has learnt to let them.

Aspects to the asteroids and Lilith

Major aspects only, at a tight orb. The Moon is left out because its position moves 13° across an untimed day.

  • Eros sextile Uranus 1.4°
  • Chiron sextile Venus 1.5°
  • Chiron sextile Mercury 2.1°
  • Hygiea opposition Pluto 2.1°
  • Ceres sextile Saturn 2.4°
  • Black Moon Lilith trine Pluto 2.6°

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. Neptune8 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Pisces; disposes Sun, Mercury, Venus; 2 major aspects

  2. 2. Jupiter5.5 pts

    traditionally rules the Sun sign, Pisces; disposes Saturn; 3 major aspects

  3. 3. Mars4 pts

    disposes Jupiter, Uranus; 2 major aspects

A Neptune-led chart is read as imagination and porousness leading: Patrick is read as tuned to what is not said.

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

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.

  • stellium, the shape it makesStellium in Pisces · Sun, Mercury, VenusThree or more planets in one sign (four, or three with a luminary, by AsterNym's count): a concentration astrologers read as that sign's themes dominating the chart.

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 semi-square Mars 1.7°
  • Mercury semi-sextile Uranus 1.8°
  • Sun quincunx Neptune 1.9°
  • Venus sesquiquadrate Pluto 1.9°

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

No birth time is on public record for Patrick McGoohan, 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 Q298908, 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.
