What the chart says
Richard, according to the stars
Core essence
Richard is playing a longer game than everyone else at the table. The core of Richard 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.
How Richard wants to be loved
Richard wants to be loved completely or not at all. Venus in Scorpio is intense, private and all in, and wants the same depth back: no games, no half measures. Trust is the whole thing. Be honest with Richard even when it costs you, and they will be the most devoted person you have ever met.
How Richard creates
How Richard makes things happen: they light the room. A Yang Fire day master is the sun, warm, visible, impossible to ignore, generous with energy and expecting the same back. Richard creates in front of people and is at their best with an audience and a cause. The work is learning to rest before the fire does it for them.
Instinct
Instinct: Richard 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 Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 8 is the powerhouse. Richard is here to build something big and run it well: money, influence, a body of work with their name on it. Ambitious, capable, generous when winning, and learning that power is for lifting people.
Triggers
Triggers: incompetence, and disrespect. Mars in Capricorn means Richard does not waste energy on anger; they use it. Controlled, strategic, relentless, the person who will outlast the problem. Cold when crossed, and quietly forgiving once you have earned it back.

Dedicate a star to Richard Widmark
Three stars chosen from the real sky above Sunrise Township 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.
Capricorn Sun
Capricorn SunPlays the long game. Wins it.
Richard Widmark's Sun was in Capricorn for the whole of December 26, 1914, 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 Tiger
Wood TigerBrave, bright, burns fast.
Richard Widmark was born on December 26, 1914, which falls in a Wood 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 8
Life Path 8Turns effort into standing.
Richard Widmark's birth date, December 26, 1914, reduces to Life Path 8 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 8 readings associate the number with ambition, authority and material results: turning sustained effort into visible achievement. Numerologists describe it as the path of the executive. The corresponding tension is control, with the caution that a number this good at managing outcomes can begin managing people the same way.

Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Richard Widmark, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 24° to 6° 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.
⚷ ChironPisces 14°47′ (moves 0.03° 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 Richard absorbing more of a room than most, and needing somewhere to put it down.
⚳ CeresPisces 2°07′ (moves 0.32° 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: Richard is read as someone who feels what others need before they say it, and can give past the point of sense.
♡ ErosAries 5°33′ (moves 0.57° 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. Richard is read as drawn to the chase more than the catch.
⚕ Hygiea ℞Cancer 29°11′ (moves 0.16° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Cancer is read as health tied to home, mood and belonging. Richard is read as someone who does not thrive far from a base.
⚸ Black Moon LilithTaurus 14°04′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Taurus is read as an unbargained appetite: for pleasure, for ownership, for a body that answers to nobody. Richard is read as immovable on those points.
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.
- Hygiea conjunction Neptune 0.5°
- Hygiea trine Venus 0.8°
- Ceres trine Pluto 1.0°
- Ceres sextile Mars 1.4°
- Eros square Sun 1.4°
- Ceres sextile Sun 2.0°
- Eros square Mars 2.1°
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. ♄ Saturn9 pts
rules the Sun sign, Capricorn; disposes Sun, Mars; 4 major aspects
2. ☿ Mercury5 pts
disposes Saturn; 4 major aspects
3. ♇ Pluto5 pts
disposes Venus; 4 major aspects
A Saturn-led chart is read as structure and endurance leading: Richard 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 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.
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.
- Venus quincunx Saturn 0.0°
- Mercury semi-sextile Venus 0.1°
- Venus quintile Uranus 0.8°
- Mercury quincunx Neptune 1.3°
- Saturn semi-sextile Neptune 1.3°
- Neptune semi-sextile Pluto 1.4°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Richard Widmark, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

Where this data comes from
Richard’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q320036, 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.
