Leo Sun
Leo SunWalks in, room rearranges.
Warmth · pride · natural spotlight
Leo energy is read as warm, expressive and generous — you may naturally hold attention and give it back as encouragement. The growth edge is remembering quieter voices shine differently, not less.
Earth Tiger
Earth TigerLeaps first, apologizes never.
Bold · magnetic · born to lead
Tiger years are linked to courage and presence — you may leap where others hesitate, and people follow. The tradition's caution is burning bright then burning out; pacing is the practice.
Life Path 2
Life Path 2Better with backup than alone.
Harmony · partnership · quiet power
A 2 path suggests a life theme of partnership — your strength may work best alongside someone, harmonizing rather than commanding. The practice is valuing your quiet influence as real power.
Rod’s cards
Every one is calculated from the birth date, not chosen: the tarot card by reducing the digits of August 9, 1938, the identity card by combining the BaZi day-master element with the Life Path number, and the two zodiac cards from the sun’s position and the Chinese year branch.

No birth time is on public record for Rod Laver, 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
Rod’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q105550, released under CC0. No documented birth time is available. Time-dependent results use a clearly labelled reference time and should not be read as their exact birth chart.
