What the chart says

Ron, according to the stars

Core essence

Ron does not do surface. The core of Ron is intensity, the kind that wants the real story and can tell when it is not getting it. They love completely or not at all, keep their own counsel, and have a private loyalty that runs deeper than anyone outside it will ever know. Trust from Ron is earned slowly and never given lightly.

How Ron wants to be loved

Ron wants to be loved seriously. Venus in Capricorn is slow to open and then loyal for life, and it shows love by building: the plan, the future, the thing that lasts. Respect is the romance. Show Ron you are in it for real and the reserve melts into a warmth almost nobody else gets to see.

How Ron creates

How Ron makes things happen: they cut to it. A Yang Metal day master is the sword, decisive, principled, allergic to nonsense. Ron creates by clarifying, by deciding, by being the one who says what the thing actually is. Sharp with themselves first. The work is remembering that not every problem needs a blade.

Instinct

Instinct: Ron 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 Metal year sharpens it: principled, determined, clear about what is right.

Purpose

Purpose: Life Path 8 is the powerhouse. Ron 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: being told to wait. Mars in Aries means Ron 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.

The quick version

Scorpio Sun

Deep water, no shallow end.

Ron Powers's Sun was in Scorpio for the whole of November 18, 1941, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Scorpio readings associate the sign with intensity, depth and strong loyalties: few bonds, held completely. Astrologers describe it as the fixed water sign, traditionally ruled by Mars and in modern practice by Pluto, and read it for privacy and resolve. The corresponding tension is the tendency to guard trust closely and to remember what was done with it.

Metal Snake

Wise, cool, hard to read.

Ron Powers was born on November 18, 1941, which falls in a Metal 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 8

Power, and the bill for it.

Ron Powers's birth date, November 18, 1941, 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.

What stands out in Ron’s chart

Ron’s birth chart

Reference chart · birth time unknown

No documented birth time exists for Ron Powers, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 14° to 0° Scorpio or Sagittarius 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.

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.

Ron’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.

  • ⚷ ChironLeo 14°30′ (moves 0.02° over the day)

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

    Chiron in Leo is read as a sore spot around being seen. The tradition has Ron performing through the doubt rather than waiting for it to lift.

  • ⚳ CeresCapricorn 15°06′ (moves 0.34° 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 Ron caring by building something that lasts for others.

  • ♡ ErosScorpio 6°42′ (moves 0.79° over the day)

    near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire

    Eros in Scorpio sits in the sign the tradition links to it most closely: desire as depth and total exposure. Ron is read as uninterested in anything half-felt.

  • ⚕ Hygiea ℞Gemini 3°08′ (moves 0.20° over the day)

    main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well

    Hygiea in Gemini is read as health that lives in the nerves and the mind. The tradition has Ron needing variety and enough sleep in equal measure.

  • ⚸ Black Moon LilithTaurus 28°30′ (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. Ron 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.

  • Black Moon Lilith conjunction Uranus 0.1°
  • Black Moon Lilith trine Neptune 0.8°
  • Eros square Pluto 1.0°
  • Eros conjunction Mercury 1.8°
  • Ceres conjunction Venus 2.0°
  • Black Moon Lilith opposition Sun 2.5°
  • Hygiea sextile Pluto 2.6°
  • Chiron trine Mars 3.0°

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°).

Ron’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. ♇ Pluto7 pts

    rules the Sun sign, Scorpio; disposes Sun, Mercury; 2 major aspects

  2. 2. ♂ Mars5.5 pts

    traditionally rules the Sun sign, Scorpio; in its own sign, Aries; 2 major aspects

  3. 3. ☉ Sun4 pts

    disposes Pluto; 3 major aspects

A Pluto-led chart is read as intensity and transformation leading: Ron is read as someone who does not do things by half and rebuilds after every ending.

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 Ron’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 sesquiquadrate Uranus 0.3°
  • Sun sesquiquadrate Mars 0.5°
  • Saturn quintile Pluto 1.2°
  • Mars semi-square Saturn 1.5°
  • Jupiter semi-square Pluto 1.8°
  • Mars semi-square Uranus 1.9°

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

No birth time is on public record for Ron Powers, 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

Ron’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q7364277, 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.

The same Ron Powers at Wikipedia.

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.
