The record
What sets Salvador apart
The record Salvador Dalí is measured by: Christ of Saint John of the Cross, The Sacrament of the Last Supper and The Persistence of Memory.
The schooling ran through Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando.
Salvador Dalí was 18 when the work began in 1922.
The record gives cardiac arrest as the cause, and Dalí Theatre and Museum as the resting place.
Salvador Dalí was born to Felipa Domènech i Ferrés and Salvador Dalí i Cusí, married Gala Dalí and raised one child.
Richard Feynman (1918) and Camilo José Cela (1916) share the birthday in another year, so the sun sits where it sits here.

What the chart says
Salvador, according to the stars
Core essence
Salvador is the steady one, the person whose yes means yes and whose Sunday looks the same as it did last year because it was a good Sunday. The core of Salvador is a deep loyalty to what is real: good food, a good bed, people who show up. They move slowly on purpose. Once they have decided something, it is decided, and that is a comfort to everyone around them.
How Salvador wants to be loved
Salvador wants to be loved slowly and for real. Venus in Taurus is touch, food, the good blanket, the plan that does not change. They are sensual and steady and they want to be shown, not told: the small physical kindnesses count double. Once Salvador is yours, they stay, and they expect the same.
How Salvador creates
How Salvador makes things happen: they find the gap and grow through it. A Yin Wood day master is the vine, flexible, quietly relentless, better at working around a wall than at knocking it down. Salvador creates by adapting, by connecting people, by making the awkward thing fit. Underestimate them and you will look up one day to find them everywhere.
Instinct
Instinct: Salvador is larger than life, a Dragon year, and their gut reaction is to go big. Confident, lucky, a natural at the centre of things, and warm-hearted underneath the spectacle. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 3 is the creative. Salvador is here to express, to make, to say the thing in a way nobody has said it before. Joy is the work: the writing, the performing, the making people laugh. The lesson is finishing what the spark started.
Triggers
Triggers: being rushed, and being pushed. Mars in Taurus means Salvador is slow to anger and very hard to move once they are. Patience is the superpower, stubbornness its shadow. Let them set the pace and they are unstoppable in their own time.

Salvador’s dot comes from the chart; yours is where you put it.
You may draw energy from a wide network, many doors, lightly held.
You likely think things through before you act. Haste rarely feels safe.
You may wear your feelings openly. What you feel tends to show.
You likely handle some friction right away and let smaller things settle.
You may favor what's proven and workable over the untested idea.
You likely warm up at a pace that depends on the person and moment.

The sky over Figueres that night
Computed for 42.27°N, 9 p.m. local sky.
At 9 p.m. the star closest to straight overhead at Figueres was Cor Caroli, in Canes Venatici, 84.5° up.
Of the 89 catalog stars above the horizon, Arcturus was the brightest.
Figueres sits at 42.3°N, low enough that no headline star is circumpolar: everything bright rises and sets there.
Nothing below −47.7° declination clears the horizon at this latitude, so Canopus, Rigil Kentaurus, Achernar, Hadar, Acrux, Mimosa and Toliman were never visible from Figueres on any night.

Where this comes from, and how it is worked out
Salvador’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q5577 (CC0), as do the occupations, works and awards above. With no documented birth time this chart is rated X on the Rodden scale, the astrological convention for how well evidenced a birth time is. The banner above lists what that leaves out. Entries are matched to Wikidata by entity id rather than by name, kept at day precision, and dropped where sources disagree on the date.
Tropical zodiac, whole-sign houses, modern rulers. Aspects on the western_v1 orb policy; minor ones at 1.5° to 2.5°, skipped where a major already holds. Minor bodies from JPL Horizons heliocentric vectors, Lilith as mean apogee. Dominance is an AsterNym score — rulerships, dispositors, aspect count — so other methods can name a different leader.
