What the chart says
Tom, according to the stars
Core essence
Tom 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 Tom 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.
The vibe
Underneath, Tom 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 Tom needs to feel safe is honesty in real time and room to react. Say it straight, and they will always meet you there.
How Tom wants to be loved
Tom 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 Tom is yours, they stay, and they expect the same.
How Tom creates
How Tom makes things happen: they cut to it. A Yang Metal day master is the sword, decisive, principled, allergic to nonsense. Tom creates by clarifying, by deciding, by being the one who says what the thing actually is. Sharp with themselves first. The work is remembering that not every problem needs a blade.
Instinct
Instinct: Tom 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 Metal year sharpens it: principled, determined, clear about what is right.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 9 is the humanitarian. Tom is here for the bigger picture, to give, to finish what others started and hand it on. Wise beyond their years, compassionate, a little world-weary, and learning to receive as freely as they give.
Triggers
Triggers: being rushed, and being pushed. Mars in Taurus means Tom 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.

The sky over London that night
Computed for 51.51°N, 9 p.m. local sky.
At 9 p.m. the star closest to straight overhead at London was Merak, in Ursa Major, 84.4° up.
Sirius was the brightest thing up that night, one of 104 catalog stars above the horizon.
London sits at 51.5°N, high enough that Vega, Capella and Deneb never set there — they circle the pole all night, every night of the year.
Canopus, Rigil Kentaurus, Achernar, Hadar, Acrux, Mimosa and Toliman cannot be seen from London at all: they sit past the −38.5° declination limit this latitude imposes.

Alec Pierce was born on May 2, 2000 too, the same date and the same year. With no birth time for any of them the chart is identical, not similar: the same Sun, the same pillars, the same Life Path. One thing a birthday twin cannot share is the latitude. From London, at 51.5°N, Vega, Capella and Deneb are circumpolar. Same sky, different lives.

Where this comes from, and how it is worked out
Tom’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q56020505 (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.
