Mars, Saturn and Uranus all fall in Gemini. The tightest aspect is Mercury square Saturn, about 0.1° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. One planet was retrograde: Uranus. The Moon was waxing gibbous, between first quarter and full.

Chevy Chase’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Chevy Chase’s private life.
Sun in Libra
14° Libra 29' at midday
purpose and vitality
With the Sun in Libra, Chevy Chase's vitality is likely to rise in good company, and purpose to feel real when they are creating balance or beauty with other people. The risk is losing their own direction while managing everyone else's. Deciding alone is probably harder for them than deciding with a second opinion in the room.
Moon in Aquarius
Aquarius, all day
needs and habits
An Aquarius Moon processes daily feelings by stepping back and thinking them through rather than sitting inside them, and Chevy is likely to need a degree of independence built into any close relationship. The temptation is to analyse a feeling instead of simply having it. Even after a good day with people, this Moon needs time alone to recover.
Mercury in Virgo
26° Virgo 41' at midday
mind and voice
For Chevy, Mercury in Virgo points to thinking that is precise and attentive to detail, and to clear communication, because the facts have usually been checked first. The catch is fixating on a small error and losing sight of the larger point. This is the placement that edits a message three times before sending something everyone else would have sent in one go.
Venus in Virgo
6° Virgo 40' at midday
love and values
With Venus in Virgo, Chevy is likely to love through small, practical acts of service and to value competence and reliability in a partner. People with this Venus tend to be hardest on those they love most, and can mistake giving notes for giving care. They may try to fix a partner's problem before simply listening to it.
Mars in Gemini
19° Gemini 40' at midday
drive and anger
With Mars in Gemini, Chevy is likely to act through words, argument and quick manoeuvring rather than force, and anger to come out sharp and verbal. Arguments can be won without the conflict underneath ever being resolved. A disagreement can still be under debate long after the other person just wants it to end.
Jupiter in Leo
20° Leo 48' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Leo grows through creative confidence and a willingness to take up space. For Chevy the overreach may be overselling their own contribution or expecting more credit than a situation calls for. There is a natural showmanship here that lifts a room, and occasionally a story that grows a little in the retelling.
Saturn in Gemini
26° Gemini 37' at midday
discipline and doubt
Saturn in Gemini builds discipline around clear expression, and it often begins with doubt about whether an idea is good enough to say out loud. For Chevy that would mean overpreparing before speaking or writing anything. Once the self-consciousness eases, the result can be someone unusually precise and credible with words.
Uranus in Gemini
8° Gemini 36' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Gemini is shared by Chevy and many people born in the same few years. These are people who come of age alongside a revolution in communication, fluent in tools older generations learned later in life. The personal version is a restless need for new information.
Neptune in Libra
2° Libra 16' at midday
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Chevy among them. It idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by images of love on screen that outpace real relationships. The personal echo is a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.
Pluto in Leo
8° Leo 30' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Leo is held by a whole generation, one that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. At a personal scale, for Chevy, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Chevy Chase’s chart
How the planets stand to each other, tightest first. Without a birth time the orbs are those at midday, and aspects to the Moon are left out because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day.
Mercury square Saturn
about 0.1° at midday
Self-doubt can get into thinking when Mercury is square Saturn, in the form of over-editing or delaying a decision that was ready. Sharing the unfinished thought anyway, again and again, is what loosens the doubt's hold over what Chevy Chase is willing to say out loud.
Mars sextile Jupiter
about 1.1° at midday
There is confident, well-aimed energy in this sextile, and not much wasted effort, since Chevy's drive and optimism pull together. Taking the initiative suits Chevy, above all when they commit to one goal and do not scatter their energy across several.
Venus square Uranus
about 1.9° at midday
In Chevy's chart the desire for closeness and the need for freedom can work against each other, and this square is known for sudden shifts in an otherwise good relationship. The remedy is to build enough independence into the relationship that none has to be created by pulling away.
Sun trine Mars
about 5.2° at midday
Confidence and drive move in the same direction for Chevy, so they are likely to act on their goals with very little inner resistance. The energy of a Sun-Mars trine is uncomplicated, and other people notice it and often want to be near it.
Mercury conjunction Neptune
about 5.6° at midday
With Mercury conjunct Neptune, Chevy's thinking is likely to be imaginative and impressionistic, working through images and instinct as much as straight logic. It is a creative and intuitive strength, at its best when a compelling idea has been held up against the facts before being embraced.
Saturn square Neptune
about 5.6° at midday
Practical sense and idealism can pull against each other in this square, and for Chevy that may mean either an uninspired routine or a dream with no realistic plan behind it. The way through is to build the structure and protect the dream at the same time, without sacrificing one for the other.
The rest, listed without a reading. Those between Uranus, Neptune and Pluto hold for years at a time, so everyone born while one holds shares it.
