What the chart says

Robert, according to the stars

Core essence

Robert is the friend who says "let's just go" and means today. The core of Robert is faith that the world is bigger and better than the room they are in, and a restlessness to go and check. They are honest to the point of it being a sport, funny by accident, and impossible to keep small. Freedom is not a preference, it is oxygen.

The vibe

Underneath, Robert cannot fully relax while anyone in the room is unhappy. The Moon in Libra feels through harmony and hates conflict in their own house. What Robert needs to feel safe is fairness, softness and a partner in the small decisions. They are at their best when someone else picks the restaurant and they get to enjoy it.

How Robert wants to be loved

Robert 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 Robert be fully themselves and they will never want to be anywhere else.

How Robert creates

How Robert 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. Robert 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: Robert 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 Water year softens it: intuitive, adaptable, feeling their way through people.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 5 is the free spirit. Robert is here to explore, to change, to taste everything and report back. Adventure, variety and freedom are not distractions from their purpose, they are it. The lesson is choosing, sometimes, and staying.

Triggers

Triggers: being told to wait. Mars in Aries means Robert gets angry fast, says it, and is over it before you have finished being hurt. The temper is honest and short. Give them a clear path and something to fight for, and all that heat turns into drive.

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

Sagittarius Sun

Needs a horizon, any horizon.

Robert Gordon's Sun was in Sagittarius for the whole of December 18, 1973, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Sagittarius readings associate the sign with distance, belief and candour: travel, big questions and an answer given before it was asked for. Astrologers describe it as the mutable fire sign, ruled by Jupiter, and read it for optimism and appetite. The corresponding tension is overreach, with the classical caution that the horizon is more attractive than the ground underfoot.

Water Ox

Says little. Finishes everything.

Robert Gordon was born on December 18, 1973, which falls in a Water 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 5

Freedom over comfort, always.

Robert Gordon's birth date, December 18, 1973, reduces to Life Path 5 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 5 readings associate the number with freedom, change and variety: movement, new experience and resistance to restrictive routine. Numerologists describe it as the path of the traveller, adaptable and restless. The corresponding tension is instability, with the caution that constant motion can become a way of avoiding commitment to any one direction.

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Robert Gordon, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 15° to 28° Libra depending on the hour. The wheel's houses are a solar chart, counted from the Sun's sign, because the Ascendant needs a time.

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.

Robert’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.

  • ChironAries 16°25′ (moves 0.01° over the day)

    centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it

    Chiron in Aries is read as a sore spot around asserting oneself: Robert may have learnt early that going first costs something, and built a way of leading that does not need permission.

  • CeresCapricorn 14°25′ (moves 0.39° over the day)

    dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured

    Ceres in Capricorn is read as nurture through structure and provision. The reading has Robert caring by building something that lasts for others.

  • ErosCapricorn 0°43′ (moves 0.62° 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. Robert is read as drawn to people who have built something.

  • HygieaAquarius 27°09′ (moves 0.30° 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. Robert is read as someone who ignores the standard advice and sometimes proves it wrong.

  • Black Moon LilithCapricorn 13°57′ (moves 0.11° over the day)

    mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed

    Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn is read as ambition that does not ask to be liked. Robert is read as someone who takes the authority rather than waiting for it.

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.

  • Hygiea trine Uranus 0.3°
  • Hygiea sextile Sun 0.4°
  • Eros opposition Saturn 0.9°
  • Hygiea sextile Mars 1.3°
  • Chiron trine Mercury 1.6°
  • Eros trine Mars 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°).

Robert’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. Jupiter10 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Sagittarius; disposes Sun, Mercury, Neptune; 4 major aspects

  2. 2. Venus5 pts

    disposes Uranus, Pluto; 3 major aspects

  3. 3. Mars5 pts

    in its own sign, Aries; 3 major aspects

A Jupiter-led chart is read as scale and optimism leading: Robert is read as reaching for the bigger version of any plan.

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 Robert’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 Sagittarius · Sun, Mercury, NeptuneThree 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 Jupiter 0.1°
  • Venus biquintile Saturn 0.6°
  • Mercury sesquiquadrate Mars 1.4°

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

No birth time is on public record for Robert Gordon, 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

Robert’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q7344869, 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.

Roster last reviewed September 10, 2026. Every entry is checked against its Wikidata record; where a person shares a name with someone else, the entity id is what settles which of them this is. What we will not tell you sets out the claims this site refuses to make.
