What the chart says
Rainn, according to the stars
The vibe
Underneath, Rainn is steadier than they let on and more tender than they let on, both at once. The Moon in Capricorn feels deeply and privately, and would rather fix the problem than talk about the feeling. What Rainn needs to feel safe is reliability and respect. They soften completely for the people who earn it.
How Rainn wants to be loved
Rainn 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 Rainn be fully themselves and they will never want to be anywhere else.
How Rainn creates
How Rainn makes things happen: they make things grow. A Yin Earth day master is the garden soil, generous, nourishing, the reason other people's ideas take root. Rainn creates by caring for the thing until it works, and they are often the quiet reason a whole group is thriving. The work is keeping some of that richness for themselves.
Instinct
Instinct: Rainn 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 7 is the seeker. Rainn is here to understand, to go deep rather than wide, to keep a private inner world that most people never see. Thoughtful, intuitive, happiest with time alone, and learning to let the right people in.
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. Rainn 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.

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.
If you only read one paragraph
Capricorn or Aquarius Sun
Rainn Wilson was born on a day when the Sun moved from Capricorn into Aquarius. Without a documented birth time, the exact Sun sign cannot be determined reliably, so AsterNym shows both rather than choosing one.
Wood Snake
Wood SnakeSays less than it knows.
Rainn Wilson was born on January 20, 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 7
Life Path 7Needs the quiet to work.
Rainn Wilson's birth date, January 20, 1966, reduces to Life Path 7 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 7 readings associate the number with inquiry, analysis and solitude: the need to understand what others simply accept. Numerologists describe it as the path of the seeker, reflective and private. The corresponding tension is withdrawal, with the caution that a mind at home in its own company can forget to come out.
What stands out in Rainn’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Rainn Wilson's date-only chart is Mars trine Jupiter, with an orb of under 1°.

- This chart has an even Earth/Air emphasis, with four planets in each, and none in Fire.
- Four planets were retrograde on the birth date: Venus, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto.
Rainn’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Rainn Wilson, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 15° to 27° Capricorn 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.

Rainn’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 19°13′ (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 Rainn absorbing more of a room than most, and needing somewhere to put it down.
⚳ CeresAries 1°54′ (moves 0.31° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Aries is read as nurture through action: Rainn looks after people by pushing them forward and expects the same in return.
♡ ErosAries 11°04′ (moves 0.72° 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. Rainn is read as drawn to the chase more than the catch.
⚕ HygieaLibra 2°42′ (moves 0.04° 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. Rainn is read as someone who wears out in conflict and recovers in harmony.
⚸ Black Moon LilithAquarius 22°06′ (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 Rainn 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.
- Chiron opposition Uranus 0.1°
- Black Moon Lilith trine Jupiter 0.2°
- Black Moon Lilith square Neptune 0.2°
- Black Moon Lilith conjunction Mars 0.4°
- Chiron sextile Mercury 0.6°
- Chiron opposition Pluto 1.0°
- Ceres sextile Sun 1.6°
- Eros sextile Venus 1.8°
- Hygiea trine Sun 2.4°
- Chiron trine Neptune 2.7°
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°).
Rainn’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. ♅ Uranus11 pts
rules the Sun sign, Aquarius; disposes Sun, Venus, Mars; 5 major aspects
2. ☿ Mercury7 pts
disposes Jupiter, Uranus, Pluto; 4 major aspects
3. ♇ Pluto6 pts
disposes Neptune; 5 major aspects
A Uranus-led chart is read as the break from pattern leading: Rainn 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 Rainn’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 in Aquarius · Sun, Venus, MarsThree 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.
- Jupiter quincunx Neptune 0.4°
- Sun semi-square Saturn 1.1°
- Venus sesquiquadrate Jupiter 1.9°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Rainn Wilson, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

No birth time is on public record for Rainn Wilson, 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
Rainn’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q349548, 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.
