Phil Collins’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 Phil apart
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882) and Felipe VI of Spain (1968) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.
What the chart says
Phil, according to the stars
Core essence
Phil is two steps to the left of where you expected. The core of Phil 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.
The vibe
Underneath, Phil 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 Phil 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 Phil wants to be loved
Phil 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 Phil be fully themselves and they will never want to be anywhere else.
How Phil creates
How Phil makes things happen: they cut to it. A Yang Metal day master is the sword, decisive, principled, allergic to nonsense. Phil 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: Phil is bold, a Tiger year, and their gut reaction is to leap. Brave, generous, a bit dramatic, magnetic to be around, and never boring for a second. The Metal year sharpens it: principled, determined, clear about what is right.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 11 is the visionary, a master number. Phil 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: cruelty, and being cornered. Mars in Pisces does not fight straight; Phil slips away, absorbs it, or turns it into something creative instead. Anger becomes art or empathy. The lesson is learning that they are allowed to take up space and say the hard thing.

You likely balance a tight inner circle with a wider orbit you dip into.
You likely think things through before you act. Haste rarely feels safe.
You likely share some feelings openly and keep others to yourself.
You likely handle some friction right away and let smaller things settle.
You may be drawn to big possibilities. The practical follows after the vision.
You likely warm up at a pace that depends on the person and moment.

No public birth time is available, so this is a 9:00 p.m. reference evening sky for that date and place.

Dedications are commemorative AsterNym records and do not rename or confer ownership of stars.
If you only read one paragraph
Aquarius Sun
Aquarius SunWeird on purpose, never sorry.
Phil Collins's Sun was in Aquarius for the whole of January 30, 1951, 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.
Metal Tiger
Metal TigerLeaps first, apologises never.
Phil Collins was born on January 30, 1951, which falls in a Metal Tiger year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Tiger readings emphasise courage, presence and the willingness to go first. The Chinese almanacs describe the Tiger as the sign others follow, bright and impulsive, at its best when the stakes are high. The corresponding caution in the tradition is burnout: a sign that burns brightly and, without pacing, burns out, with little left in reserve for the long middle of things.
Life Path 11
Life Path 11Sees what the rest missed.
Phil Collins's birth date, January 30, 1951, 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 Phil’s chart

Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Phil Collins, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 1° to 15° Scorpio 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.

Phil’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.
⚷ ChironSagittarius 29°09′ (moves 0.09° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Sagittarius is read as a sore spot around belief and being taught. The reading has Phil building a philosophy from lived evidence rather than received one.
⚳ CeresAquarius 2°08′ (moves 0.39° 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. Phil is read as someone whose care shows up as fairness to many rather than fuss over one.
♡ ErosCapricorn 16°43′ (moves 0.60° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Capricorn is read as desire that respects competence and control. Phil is read as drawn to people who have built something.
⚕ HygieaAquarius 6°06′ (moves 0.39° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Aquarius is read as health through the unconventional: odd hours, own methods. Phil is read as someone who ignores the standard advice and sometimes proves it wrong.
⚸ Black Moon LilithGemini 12°48′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini is read as the part of Phil that says the unsayable and does not take it back.
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.
- Ceres trine Saturn 0.1°
- Eros conjunction Mercury 0.6°
- Chiron sextile Venus 0.8°
- Black Moon Lilith square Jupiter 2.0°
- Eros square Neptune 2.8°
- Chiron square Saturn 2.9°
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°).
Phil’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. ♅ Uranus8 pts
rules the Sun sign, Aquarius; disposes Sun, Venus; 3 major aspects
2. ♆ Neptune4 pts
disposes Mars, Jupiter; 2 major aspects
3. ♄ Saturn3.5 pts
traditionally rules the Sun sign, Aquarius; disposes Mercury; 1 major aspect
A Uranus-led chart is read as the break from pattern leading: Phil 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 Phil’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 semi-sextile Jupiter 1.0°
- Mars sesquiquadrate Neptune 1.7°
- Saturn semi-square Pluto 1.8°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Phil Collins, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

Where this data comes from
Phil’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q144622, 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.
