What the chart says
Richard, according to the stars
Core essence
Richard notices. That is the whole thing: the detail everyone else walked past, the small fix that makes the day work, the way you looked slightly off when you said you were fine. The core of Richard is devotion expressed as usefulness. They love by improving things, and they are far kinder to other people than to themselves.
How Richard wants to be loved
Richard wants to be loved out loud. Venus in Leo is warm, generous and a little theatrical, and it wants a partner who is proud to be seen with them. Praise is oxygen, loyalty is the deal. Adore Richard openly and they will make you feel like the only person in every room.
How Richard creates
How Richard makes things happen: they keep moving. A Yang Water day master is the river, curious, restless, going somewhere even when nobody knows where. Richard 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: Richard is steady under pressure, an Ox year, and their gut reaction is to keep going. Patient, stubborn in the useful way, the one still working when the others have gone home, and quietly very proud of it. The Fire year turns the volume up: warmer, bolder, more expressive, harder to overlook.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 33 is the master teacher. Richard is here to lift people, to care at a scale that becomes a calling, to make compassion practical. Devoted, wise, sometimes exhausted by how much they feel for everyone, and learning to keep a little for themselves.
Triggers
Triggers: being fenced in, and being lied to. Mars in Sagittarius fights loud, laughs it off, and is genuinely fine ten minutes later. Richard has boundless energy for anything with a horizon in it and none for the small print. Aim them at something far away and step back.

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

If you only read one paragraph
Virgo Sun
Virgo SunStandards nobody else can meet.
Richard Marquand's Sun was in Virgo for the whole of September 22, 1937, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Virgo readings associate the sign with precision, service and improvement: noticing what is off and quietly putting it right. Astrologers describe it as the mutable earth sign, ruled by Mercury, and read it for craft and analysis. The corresponding tension is perfectionism, described in the tradition as a standard applied hardest to the self.
Fire Ox
Fire OxReliable to the bone.
Richard Marquand was born on September 22, 1937, which falls in a Fire Ox year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Ox readings emphasise endurance, reliability and the capacity to finish what was started, slowly and without complaint. The Chinese almanacs describe the Ox as the worker of the cycle, whose word holds. The corresponding caution in the tradition is stubbornness that presents itself as principle, and a difficulty changing course once a furrow has been cut.
Life Path 33
Life Path 33Lifts the room by example.
Richard Marquand's birth date, September 22, 1937, reduces to Life Path 33 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 33 readings treat the number as a master path, associated with teaching through care, service and example. Numerologists read it as an intensified 6, the nurturer's instinct turned toward a community rather than a household. The corresponding tension is self-sacrifice, with the caution that giving at that scale needs a source that is also being filled.
What stands out in Richard’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Richard Marquand's date-only chart is Sun sextile Pluto, with an orb of under 1°.
- Three planets, Sun, Mercury and Neptune, sit together in Virgo, which astrologers call a stellium.
- Five of the ten planets are in Earth signs, and none in Air.
- Richard Marquand combines a Water Day Master in BaZi with a mutable Sun and a Life Path on the emotional plane, the combination AsterNym calls The Tidal Healer.

Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Richard Marquand, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 18° to 2° Aries or Taurus 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.

Richard’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.
⚷ ChironCancer 1°00′ (moves 0.02° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Cancer is read as a wound around belonging and being looked after. Richard is read as someone who learnt to make a home for others before finding one.
⚳ Ceres ℞Aquarius 16°44′ (moves 0.09° 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. Richard is read as someone whose care shows up as fairness to many rather than fuss over one.
♡ ErosGemini 1°19′ (moves 0.43° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Gemini is read as desire that starts in conversation. Richard is read as someone for whom a quick mind is the first attraction.
⚕ HygieaVirgo 1°09′ (moves 0.36° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Virgo sits in the sign the tradition links to it most closely: health as maintenance. Richard is read as attentive to small signals and prone to over-attending.
⚸ Black Moon LilithSagittarius 9°22′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius is read as a refusal to be told what to believe. The reading has Richard leaving any room where the truth is decided in advance.
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.
- Eros sextile Saturn 0.6°
- Chiron square Saturn 0.9°
- Eros sextile Pluto 1.5°
- Chiron square Sun 2.0°
- Eros trine Sun 2.3°
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°).
Richard’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. ☿ Mercury10 pts
rules the Sun sign, Virgo; in its own sign, Virgo; disposes Sun, Neptune; 3 major aspects
2. ☉ Sun4 pts
disposes Venus; 3 major aspects
3. ♂ Mars4 pts
disposes Saturn; 3 major aspects
A Mercury-led chart is read as the mind in charge: Richard is read as thinking, talking and connecting their way through life.
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 Richard’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.

Where this data comes from
Richard’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q471402, 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.
