What the chart says
Ted, according to the stars
Core essence
Ted does not do surface. The core of Ted 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 Ted is earned slowly and never given lightly.
The vibe
Underneath, Ted cannot fully relax while anyone in the room is unhappy. The Moon in Libra feels through harmony and hates conflict in their own house. What Ted needs to feel safe is fairness, softness and a partner in the small decisions. They are at their best when someone else picks the restaurant and they get to enjoy it.
How Ted wants to be loved
Ted 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 Ted even when it costs you, and they will be the most devoted person you have ever met.
How Ted creates
How Ted 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. Ted 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: Ted is bold, a Tiger year, and their gut reaction is to leap. Brave, generous, a bit dramatic, magnetic to be around, and never boring for a second. The Earth year grounds it: practical, patient, someone people lean on.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 6 is the nurturer. Ted is here to care, to make a home wherever they are, to be the person others come to. Responsible, warm, a little too willing to carry everyone, and learning to let themselves be looked after.
Triggers
Triggers: unfairness, and being forced to pick a side. Mars in Libra hates open conflict and will negotiate for hours to avoid it, then dig in absolutely when a principle is at stake. Ted fights for balance. The lesson is that sometimes the fair thing is to just say no.

If you only read one paragraph
Scorpio Sun
Scorpio SunReads the room. Says nothing.
Ted Turner's Sun was in Scorpio at the documented birth time. 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.
Earth Tiger
Earth TigerBig heart, short fuse.
Ted Turner was born on November 19, 1938, which falls in a Earth Tiger year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Tiger readings emphasise courage, presence and the willingness to go first. The Chinese almanacs describe the Tiger as the sign others follow, bright and impulsive, at its best when the stakes are high. The corresponding caution in the tradition is burnout: a sign that burns brightly and, without pacing, burns out, with little left in reserve for the long middle of things.
Life Path 6
Life Path 6Home is the project.
Ted Turner's birth date, November 19, 1938, reduces to Life Path 6 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 6 readings associate the number with care, responsibility and beauty: home, family and the instinct to support the people nearby. Numerologists describe it as the path of the nurturer. The corresponding tension is over-responsibility, with the caution that carrying other people's burdens can become a way of avoiding one's own.

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.
⚷ Chiron ℞Cancer 9°25′ · House 8
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Cancer is read as a wound around belonging and being looked after. Ted is read as someone who learnt to make a home for others before finding one.
⚳ Ceres ℞Taurus 19°49′ · House 6
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.
♡ ErosCapricorn 2°13′ · House 2
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Capricorn is read as desire that respects competence and control. Ted is read as drawn to people who have built something.
⚕ HygieaScorpio 21°00′ · House 12
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 LilithCapricorn 26°30′ · House 2
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn is read as ambition that does not ask to be liked. Ted is read as someone who takes the authority rather than waiting for it.
Aspects to the asteroids and Lilith
Major aspects only, at a tight 3° orb.
- Black Moon Lilith sextile Sun 0.1°
- Black Moon Lilith sextile Venus 1.2°
- Black Moon Lilith square Moon 1.6°
- Hygiea sextile Neptune 2.0°
- Chiron square Saturn 2.4°
- Hygiea square Jupiter 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, angularity and aspect count under the method below.
1. ♀ Venus10 pts
rules the Moon sign, Libra; disposes Moon, Mars, Uranus; 4 major aspects
2. ♇ Pluto8 pts
rules the Sun sign, Scorpio; disposes Sun, Venus; 3 major aspects
3. ♃ Jupiter7 pts

A Venus-led chart is read as taste and relationship setting the terms: Ted is read as choosing by what is beautiful and who is in the room.
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.
