What the chart says
Ted, according to the stars
Core essence
Ted feels the room before entering it. The core of Ted is care, the practical kind that remembers what you said in March and has already made the tea. They protect their people with a fierceness that surprises anyone who only knew the soft exterior. Home is not a place for Ted, it is whoever they have decided to keep.
The vibe
Underneath, Ted runs hot. The Moon in Aries means feelings arrive fast and loud and burn out just as fast, so the flare you saw an hour ago is already forgiven. What Ted needs to feel safe is honesty in real time and room to react. Say it straight, and they will always meet you there.
How Ted wants to be loved
Ted 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 Ted is yours, they stay, and they expect the same.
How Ted creates
How Ted 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. Ted 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: Ted 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 Metal year sharpens it: principled, determined, clear about what is right.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 1 is the pioneer. Ted is here to go first, to start the thing, to trust their own read when nobody else has a map. Independence is the gift and the lesson: the best version of Ted leads without needing to do it alone.
Triggers
Triggers: sloppiness, and being told they are overthinking it. Mars in Virgo means Ted channels energy into fixing, sorting, getting it right, and gets sharp when others do not care. The critic turns inward first. Give them a problem worth solving and watch them come alive.

Dedicate a star to Ted Elliott
Three stars chosen from the real sky above Santa Ana on the night they were born. Choose the story that connects you.
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.
Cancer Sun
Cancer SunRemembers what you said in March.
Ted Elliott's Sun was in Cancer for the whole of July 4, 1961, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Cancer readings associate the sign with protectiveness, memory and attention to the emotional temperature of a room. Astrologers describe it as the cardinal water sign, ruled by the Moon, and read it for loyalty to family and home. The corresponding tension is guardedness: the tradition describes a sign that looks after others more readily than it lets itself be looked after.
Metal Ox
Metal OxCarries the load without comment.
Ted Elliott was born on July 4, 1961, which falls in a Metal 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 1
Life Path 1Leads because nobody else moved.
Ted Elliott's birth date, July 4, 1961, reduces to Life Path 1 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 1 readings associate the number with initiative, independence and the role of going first: deciding, beginning and leading before agreement has formed. Numerologists describe it as the path of the pioneer. The corresponding tension is isolation, with the caution that the front of the line can be a lonely place to stand.
What stands out in Ted’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Ted Elliott's date-only chart is Venus trine Saturn, with an orb of under 1°.
- Four planets were retrograde on the birth date: Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune.
- Ted Elliott combines an Earth Day Master in BaZi with a cardinal Sun and a Life Path on the mental plane, the combination AsterNym calls The Steadfast Strategist.
Ted’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Ted Elliott, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 1° to 14° Aries 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.

Ted’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.
⚷ Chiron ℞Pisces 6°24′ (moves 0.02° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Pisces is read as a wound around boundaries and faith. The reading has Ted absorbing more of a room than most, and needing somewhere to put it down.
⚳ CeresTaurus 11°36′ (moves 0.32° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Taurus is read as nurture through the physical: food, comfort, a steady presence. Ted is read as someone who shows care by providing.
♡ ErosScorpio 7°33′ (moves 0.30° 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. Ted is read as uninterested in anything half-felt.
⚕ HygieaScorpio 19°05′ (moves 0.01° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Scorpio is read as health through release and honest reckoning. The tradition has Ted carrying stress in the body until it is named.
⚸ Black Moon LilithLeo 17°03′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Leo is read as a pride that will not perform on demand. Ted is read as most dangerous when underestimated.
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.
- Chiron opposition Pluto 0.3°
- Ceres sextile Sun 0.9°
- Eros conjunction Neptune 1.1°
- Eros sextile Pluto 1.4°
- Chiron trine Neptune 2.2°
- Eros square Jupiter 2.8°
- Chiron opposition Mars 3.0°
- Ceres opposition Neptune 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°).
Ted’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. ☽ Moon5 pts
rules the Sun sign, Cancer; disposes Sun, Mercury
2. ☿ Mercury5 pts
disposes Mars, Pluto; 3 major aspects
3. ♀ Venus5 pts
in its own sign, Taurus; 3 major aspects
A Moon-led chart is read as feeling first: Ted is read as steered by mood, memory and what feels safe.
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 Ted’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.
- Sun semi-square Venus 0.0°
- Mars biquintile Saturn 0.2°
- Mars quincunx Jupiter 1.3°
- Jupiter quincunx Pluto 1.3°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Ted Elliott, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

Where this data comes from
Ted’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q943506, 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.
