What the chart says
Tom, according to the stars
Core essence
Tom notices. That is the whole thing: the detail everyone else walked past, the small fix that makes the day work, the way you looked slightly off when you said you were fine. The core of Tom is devotion expressed as usefulness. They love by improving things, and they are far kinder to other people than to themselves.
How Tom wants to be loved
Tom wants to be loved beautifully. Venus is at home in Libra: romance, manners, the date that was actually planned, a partner who is fair and easy to be around. Tom gives a lot of grace and needs it back. Treat them like a partner in everything, including the small choices, and they bloom.
How Tom creates
How Tom makes things happen: they seep in. A Yin Water day master is rain, mist, the still pool that reflects everything. Tom creates by sensing, by imagination, by noticing what nobody else said. Their influence is quiet and total. The work is not dissolving into everyone else's weather.
Instinct
Instinct: Tom is sharp and confident, a Rooster year, and their gut reaction is to say the true thing out loud. Observant, hardworking, honest, and proud of looking the part. The Water year softens it: intuitive, adaptable, feeling their way through people.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 22 is the master builder. Tom is here to turn a big vision into something that actually stands, at a scale most people would not attempt. Practical and visionary at once, patient, and learning that even the largest things are built one day at a time.
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. Tom fights for balance. The lesson is that sometimes the fair thing is to just say no.

If you only read one paragraph
Virgo Sun
Virgo SunStandards nobody else can meet.
Tom Skerritt's Sun was in Virgo for the whole of August 25, 1933, so no birth time is needed to settle it. Traditional Virgo readings associate the sign with precision, service and improvement: noticing what is off and quietly putting it right. Astrologers describe it as the mutable earth sign, ruled by Mercury, and read it for craft and analysis. The corresponding tension is perfectionism, described in the tradition as a standard applied hardest to the self.
Water Rooster
Water RoosterSharp eye, sharper tongue.
Tom Skerritt was born on August 25, 1933, which falls in a Water Rooster year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Rooster readings emphasise precision, candour and pride in appearance and in work done properly. The Chinese almanacs describe the Rooster as observant and punctual, the sign that notices and says so. The corresponding caution in the tradition is vanity, and a frankness that arrives before anyone asked for it.
Life Path 22
Life Path 22Structure for the many.
Tom Skerritt's birth date, August 25, 1933, reduces to Life Path 22 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 22 readings treat the number as a master path, associated with large-scale building: ambitious ideas combined with the practical structure to realise them. Numerologists read it as an intensified 4, the builder working at the scale of institutions. The corresponding tension is the gap between vision and execution, with the caution that a plan this large can stall on its own weight.
What stands out in Tom’s chart
- The tightest major aspect in Tom Skerritt's date-only chart is Sun sextile Mars, with an orb of about 2°.
- Three planets, Sun, Jupiter and Neptune, sit together in Virgo, which astrologers call a stellium.
- Five of the ten planets fall in Cardinal signs, making Cardinal the strongest modality in this chart.
- Tom Skerritt combines a Water Day Master in BaZi with a mutable Sun and a Life Path on the physical plane, the combination AsterNym calls The Tidal Explorer.
Tom’s birth chart
Reference chart · birth time unknown
No documented birth time exists for Tom Skerritt, so the positions below are checked across the whole birth date, not fixed at noon. The Moon ranges from 19° to 3° Libra or Scorpio 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.

Tom’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.
⚷ ChironGemini 3°58′ (moves 0.02° over the day)
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Gemini is read as a tender spot around being heard or believed. The tradition has Tom turning that into a careful, exact way with words.
⚳ Ceres ℞Aries 22°03′ (moves 0.04° over the day)
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Aries is read as nurture through action: Tom looks after people by pushing them forward and expects the same in return.
♡ ErosSagittarius 26°02′ (moves 0.15° over the day)
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Sagittarius is read as desire for the far-off and the free. The reading has Tom attracted to people who open a door rather than close one.
⚕ HygieaScorpio 25°49′ (moves 0.25° 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 Tom carrying stress in the body until it is named.
⚸ Black Moon LilithGemini 23°30′ (moves 0.11° over the day)
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini is read as the part of Tom that says the unsayable and does not take it back.
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.
- Eros square Jupiter 0.7°
- Hygiea sextile Jupiter 0.9°
- Chiron trine Venus 1.1°
- Eros trine Uranus 1.2°
- Hygiea trine Pluto 1.8°
- Chiron square Sun 1.9°
- Ceres square Pluto 2.0°
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°).
Tom’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. ☿ Mercury7 pts
rules the Sun sign, Virgo; disposes Sun, Jupiter, Neptune; 1 major aspect
2. ♅ Uranus5 pts
disposes Saturn; 4 major aspects
3. ♂ Mars4 pts
disposes Uranus; 3 major aspects
A Mercury-led chart is read as the mind in charge: Tom is read as thinking, talking and connecting their way through life.
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 Tom’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 Virgo · Sun, Jupiter, 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.
T-square onto Pluto · Mars, Uranus, PlutoAn opposition with a third planet squaring both ends. Read as a driving tension that resolves through the apex planet.
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.
- Jupiter sesquiquadrate Saturn 0.1°
- Jupiter quincunx Uranus 0.5°
- Neptune semi-square Pluto 0.6°
- Venus quintile Pluto 1.0°
- Mercury quintile Mars 1.4°
- Saturn quincunx Neptune 2.0°
Houses need a birth time. None is documented for Tom Skerritt, so no house placements are claimed for the planets or the minor bodies above.

Where this data comes from
Tom’s birth date and birthplace come from Wikidata Q320093, 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.
