What the chart says
Simon, according to the stars
Core essence
Simon is the friend who says "let's just go" and means today. The core of Simon 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, Simon is steadier than they let on and more tender than they let on, both at once. The Moon in Capricorn feels deeply and privately, and would rather fix the problem than talk about the feeling. What Simon needs to feel safe is reliability and respect. They soften completely for the people who earn it.
How Simon wants to be loved
Simon 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 Simon even when it costs you, and they will be the most devoted person you have ever met.
How Simon creates
How Simon 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. Simon 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: Simon is witty and inventive, a Monkey year, and their gut reaction is to play with the problem. Clever, funny, curious, a little mischievous, and quick to land on their feet. The Metal year sharpens it: principled, determined, clear about what is right.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 3 is the creative. Simon 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: incompetence, and disrespect. Mars in Capricorn means Simon 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.

Where Simon sits
Six lines
Simon’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 may leap first and adjust as you go. Waiting can feel like losing momentum.
You may wear your feelings openly. What you feel tends to show.
You may want to resolve tension the moment it appears, rather than let it sit.
You likely balance practical steps with room to imagine further.
You may feel connection fast. Chemistry can arrive before the details do.

The sky over Los Angeles that night
Computed for 34.05°N, at the documented birth time.
At the birth hour the star closest to straight overhead at Los Angeles was Izar, in Boötes, 81.7° up.
Of the 82 catalog stars above the horizon, Arcturus was the brightest.
From 34.1°N not one of the brightest stars stays permanently above the horizon — all of them rise and set.
Nothing below −55.9° declination clears the horizon at this latitude, so Rigil Kentaurus, Achernar, Hadar, Acrux, Mimosa and Toliman were never visible from Los Angeles on any night.
Sun -26° below the horizon, Moon up and 5% lit at waxing crescent.

Where this comes from, and how it is worked out
Simon’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q299297 (CC0), as do the occupations, works and awards above. The birth time is rated AA on the Rodden scale, the astrological convention for how well evidenced a birth time is: from a birth certificate, birth record or family bible, the most reliable class. From Astro-Databank (Rodden AA). 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, angularity, aspect count — so other methods can name a different leader.
