Sky match
73
out of 100
The two charts, in brief
In Paul Newman's chart the Sun is in Aquarius; in Joanne Woodward's chart the Sun is in Pisces. Between them the charts make 27 close angles, 4 of them between personal planets, which give a sky match of 73 out of 100.
Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward married in 1958, and the marriage lasted until Paul Newman's death in 2008.
The sky match counts the close angles between two charts, gives most weight to the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars, and adds a little for a shared Sun, Moon or rising sign. Where StarMap has no verified birth time the chart is cast for midday and the Moon's angles are not counted, so the figure is approximate. It says nothing about whether a relationship lasts.
Where their personal planets meet
Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars move quickly, so these angles belong to Paul and Joanne and to few other pairs. Angles to the Moon are left out where there is no birth time.

Relationship data from Wikidata, stated as Wikidata records it. Birth dates and places from Wikidata; birth times, where StarMap has one, from Astro-Databank with their Rodden rating. Positions are computed with the astronomy-engine ephemeris and checked against Swiss Ephemeris. The readings describe what an angle is traditionally taken to mean and are written by StarMap for reflection and entertainment, not as statements about the two people’s private lives.
