What the chart says
Wilhelm, according to the stars
Core essence
Wilhelm leads with the body. First in, first to speak, first to say the thing everyone was thinking, and honestly a little surprised when the room needed a second to catch up. The core of Wilhelm is courage that does not look like courage from the inside, it just looks like Tuesday. They would rather be wrong fast than right slowly, and it is why people follow them.
The vibe
Underneath, Wilhelm feels more than they will ever show, and shows it to about three people. The Moon in Scorpio is deep water: loyal, private, slow to trust and impossible to fool. What Wilhelm needs to feel safe is total honesty and the sense that a secret told stays told. Betray that once and it is a long way back.
How Wilhelm wants to be loved
Wilhelm wants to be loved tenderly. Venus in Pisces is the romantic of the zodiac: soft, giving, a little dreamy, and easily bruised. They love without keeping score and need a partner who will not take advantage of that. Be gentle with Wilhelm, be honest, and they will make the ordinary feel enchanted.
How Wilhelm creates
How Wilhelm makes things happen: they refine it until it shines. A Yin Metal day master is jewellery, precise, aesthetic, particular about the finish. Wilhelm creates by polishing, by taste, by knowing exactly which detail makes the whole thing sing. Sensitive to being handled roughly, and worth handling well.
Instinct
Instinct: Wilhelm is wise and watchful, a Snake year, and their gut reaction is to observe before moving. Elegant, intuitive, private, and usually right about people long before saying so. The Wood year adds growth: ideals, ambition, a need to be getting somewhere.
Purpose
Purpose: Life Path 3 is the creative. Wilhelm is here to express, to make, to say the thing in a way nobody has said it before. Joy is the work: the writing, the performing, the making people laugh. The lesson is finishing what the spark started.
Triggers
Triggers: incompetence, and disrespect. Mars in Capricorn means Wilhelm does not waste energy on anger; they use it. Controlled, strategic, relentless, the person who will outlast the problem. Cold when crossed, and quietly forgiving once you have earned it back.

Wilhelm Röntgen in 15 seconds
Aries Sun
Aries SunRuns at it head first.
Wilhelm Röntgen's Sun was in Aries at the documented birth time. Traditional Aries readings associate the sign with initiative, directness and a preference for acting before the plan is finished. Astrologers describe it as the cardinal fire sign: the one that starts things. The corresponding tension is impatience, with the classical caution that what Aries begins quickly it may leave for someone else to complete.
Wood Snake
Wood SnakeWise, cool, hard to read.
Wilhelm Röntgen was born on March 27, 1845, which falls in a Wood Snake year of the Chinese calendar. Traditional Snake readings emphasise intelligence, composure and depth: thinking before speaking, and speaking less than it knows. The Chinese almanacs describe the Snake as the sage of the cycle, private and deliberate. The corresponding caution in the tradition is suspicion, with a tendency to hold a grudge as carefully as it holds a secret.
Life Path 3
Life Path 3The storyteller at the table.
Wilhelm Röntgen's birth date, March 27, 1845, reduces to Life Path 3 under the numerology method AsterNym uses. Traditional Life Path 3 readings associate the number with expression: words, humour, performance and making things. Numerologists describe it as the path of the communicator, sociable and quick. The corresponding tension is dispersal, with the caution that many things begun and few finished is the classical pattern the tradition warns this number about.

Wilhelm’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 ℞Virgo 13°18′ · House 1
centaur (2060) · the wound and what is learnt from it
Chiron in Virgo is read as a wound around never being good enough. The reading has Wilhelm turning that pressure into craft and an eye for what others miss.
⚳ CeresAquarius 16°09′ · House 6
dwarf planet (1) · how a person nurtures and wants to be nurtured
Ceres in Aquarius is read as nurture at the scale of the group. Wilhelm is read as someone whose care shows up as fairness to many rather than fuss over one.
♡ ErosCapricorn 12°06′ · House 5
near-Earth asteroid (433) · what draws them and how they desire
Eros in Capricorn is read as desire that respects competence and control. Wilhelm is read as drawn to people who have built something.
⚕ HygieaAquarius 22°51′ · House 6
main-belt asteroid (10) · health, routine and what keeps them well
Hygiea in Aquarius is read as health through the unconventional: odd hours, own methods. Wilhelm is read as someone who ignores the standard advice and sometimes proves it wrong.
⚸ Black Moon LilithGemini 26°02′ · House 10
mean lunar apogee · the part that refuses to be tamed
Black Moon Lilith in Gemini is read as the part of Wilhelm that says the unsayable and does not take it back.

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°).
Wilhelm’s dominant planets
Scored from rulerships, dispositors, angularity and aspect count under the method below.
1. ♂ Mars13.5 pts
rules the Sun sign, Aries; traditionally rules the Moon sign, Scorpio; disposes Sun, Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus, Pluto; 4 major aspects
2. ☿ Mercury8 pts
rules the Ascendant, Virgo; 5 major aspects
3. ♅ Uranus5 pts
disposes Saturn, Neptune; 3 major aspects
A Mars-led chart is read as drive setting the pace: Wilhelm is read as acting first and reflecting after.
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.
