Tim Pratt’s AsterNym identity
The Steadfast Seeker

What the chart says
Tim, according to the stars
Core essence
Tim is the friend who says "let's just go" and means today. The core of Tim 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.
How Tim wants to be loved
Tim wants to be loved as a friend first, and then as everything. Venus in Aquarius needs freedom, conversation and a partner who finds their strangeness delightful. Rules and jealousy make them cold; acceptance makes them devoted. Let Tim be fully themselves and they will never want to be anywhere else.
How Tim creates
How Tim 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. Tim 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: Tim 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 Fire year turns the volume up: warmer, bolder, more expressive, harder to overlook.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 11 is the visionary, a master number. Tim is here to see what others cannot yet and to say it, an antenna for the mood of the moment. Intuitive, inspiring, sometimes overwhelmed by their own sensitivity, and learning to ground the vision in something real.
Triggers
Triggers: being fenced in, and being lied to. Mars in Sagittarius fights loud, laughs it off, and is genuinely fine ten minutes later. Tim has boundless energy for anything with a horizon in it and none for the small print. Aim them at something far away and step back.

Tim Pratt at a glance
Sagittarius Sun
Sagittarius SunNeeds a horizon, any horizon.
Tim Pratt's Sun was in Sagittarius for the whole of December 12, 1976, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Sagittarius readings associate the sign with distance, belief and candour: travel, big questions and an answer given before it was asked for. Astrologers describe it as the mutable fire sign, ruled by Jupiter, and read it for optimism and appetite. The corresponding tension is overreach, with the classical caution that the horizon is more attractive than the ground underfoot.
Fire Dragon
Fire DragonConfident before the proof.
Tim Pratt was born on December 12, 1976, which falls in a Fire Dragon year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Dragon readings emphasise confidence, luck and scale: the only mythical animal in the cycle, associated with ambition and with attention that arrives whether or not it was sought. The Chinese almanacs describe the Dragon as the sign of large gestures. The corresponding caution in the tradition is arrogance, and a difficulty with tasks too small to be seen.
Life Path 11
Life Path 11Intuition before evidence.
Tim Pratt's birth date, December 12, 1976, reduces to Life Path 11 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 11 readings treat the number as a master path, associated with intuition, sensitivity and noticing patterns before they become obvious. Numerologists read it as an intensified 2: the partner's gifts under pressure. The corresponding tension is nervous strain, with the caution that perceiving more than most people can be exhausting to carry.
What stands out in Tim’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Tim Pratt's date-only chart is Neptune sextile Pluto, with an orb of under 1°.
- Three planets, Sun, Mars and Neptune, sit together in Sagittarius, which astrologers call a stellium.
- Five of the ten planets fall in Fixed signs, making Fixed the strongest modality in this chart.
- Tim Pratt combines an Earth Day Master in BaZi with a mutable Sun and a Life Path on the intuitive plane, the combination AsterNym calls The Steadfast Seeker.
Tim’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Tim Pratt, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 22° to 6° Leo or Virgo 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.

Tim’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 ℞Aries 27°36′ (moves 0.02° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Aries is read as a sore spot around asserting oneself: Tim may have learnt early that going first costs something, and built a way of leading that does not need permission.
⚳ CeresLibra 0°56′ (moves 0.30° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Libra is read as nurture through fairness and company. Tim is read as someone who feeds others by keeping the peace and the balance.
♡ ErosLibra 25°19′ (moves 0.85° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Libra is read as desire for the beautiful and the mutual. Tim is read as someone who wants the pairing itself as much as the person.
⚕ HygieaVirgo 17°57′ (moves 0.17° over the day)
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Virgo sits in the sign the tradition links to it most closely: health as maintenance. Tim is read as attentive to small signals and prone to over-attending.
⚸ Black Moon LilithTaurus 15°21′ (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. Tim 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 square Saturn 1.3°
- Hygiea square Mars 2.2°
- Ceres trine Venus 2.8°
- Hygiea square Sun 2.9°
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°).
Tim’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. ♃ Jupiter7 pts
rules the Sun sign, Sagittarius; disposes Sun, Mars, Neptune; 1 major aspect
2. ♄ Saturn7 pts
disposes Mercury; 6 major aspects
3. ♇ Pluto5 pts
disposes Uranus; 4 major aspects
A Jupiter-led chart is read as scale and optimism leading: Tim is read as reaching for the bigger version of any plan.
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 Tim’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.
Stellium in Sagittarius · Sun, Mars, NeptuneThree or more planets in one sign (four, or three with a luminary, by AsterNym's count): a concentration astrologers read as that sign's themes dominating the chart.
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.
- Mercury sesquiquadrate Jupiter 1.1°
- Sun quincunx Jupiter 2.2°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Tim Pratt, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

Where this data comes from
Tim’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q6055713, 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.
