Richard Dean Anderson’s birth chart

Richard Dean Anderson's full reading

Each planet by sign. First-draft readings in the StarMap voice, reviewed by our consulting astrologer before launch.

1. ☉Sun in Aquarius

   ♒ 3° Aquarius 10'

   purpose and vitality

   Their purpose is tied to being useful to a group or an idea bigger than themselves, and their vitality rises around causes and communities. The tension is detaching from their own needs while championing everyone else's. It shows up as being the reliable one at meetings and the hardest person to reach one on one.

2. ☽Moon in Aries

   ♈ 6° Aries 42'

   needs and habits

   Their day to day needs are simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. Comfort comes from action rather than discussion. It shows up as pacing the room or going for a walk instead of sitting with a feeling until it passes on its own.

3. ☿Mercury in Capricorn

   ♑ 20° Capricorn 10' ℞

   mind and voice

   They think methodically and communicate in a measured, practical way that people tend to trust. The tension is being so focused on the useful conclusion that they dismis ideas that have not yet proven their worth. It shows up as getting straight to the point in a conversation that other people expected to be casual.

4. ♀Venus in Aquarius

   ♒ 15° Aquarius 13' ℞

   love and values

   They love as a friend first, and they value independence, shared ideas and a partner who does not crowd they. The tension is keeping just enough distance that closeness feels slightly out of reach even to they. It shows up as valuing a partner's individuality sometimes more than the intimacy between they.

5. ♂Mars in Libra

   ♎ 8° Libra 54'

   drive and anger

   They act diplomatically and prefer negotiation to confrontation, and their anger tends to stay buried until it is too big to ignore. The tension is avoiding conflict so consistently that resentment builds underneath the calm surface. It shows up as agreeing to something they actually minded, then feeling it later.

6. ♃Jupiter in Aquarius

   ♒ 11° Aquarius 47'

   growth and excess

   They grow through community, ideas and causes bigger than their own life. The overreach is so much faith in a theory or a group that they overlook its practical flaws. It shows up as an optimism about the future that makes they a natural organiser of other people's efforts.

7. ♄Saturn in Virgo

   ♍ 18° Virgo 53' ℞

   discipline and doubt

   They build discipline around competence, often driven by a fear that they have not yet done enough to deserve rest. The doubt shows up as feeling like a fraud even when their actual track record says otherwise. It shows up as becoming genuinely, quietly excellent at something long before they will admit it out loud.

8. ♅Uranus in Cancer

   ♋ 1° Cancer 47' ℞

   freedom, generational

   Shared by everyone born in this span of years, this placement marks a generation that redefines home and family, departing from the structures their own parents grew up inside. Personally, it can show up as a pull to build family life differently.

9. ♆Neptune in Libra

   ♎ 17° Libra 20' ℞

   imagination, generational

   Shared by everyone born in this span, this placement marks a generation that idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by media images of love that outpace real relationships. Personally, it can show up as a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.

10. ♇Pluto in Leo

    ♌ 17° Leo 19' ℞

    power, generational

    Shared by everyone born in this span of years, this placement marks a generation that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. Personally, it can show up as a charged relationship with authority and who gets to hold the spotlight.

Aspects

How the planets in Richard Dean Anderson's chart talk to each other, tightest first.

1. Neptune sextile Pluto

   0.0° separating

   Shared by this generation, the placement marks collective imagination and transformation cooperating gently, with relatively little friction. Personally, it can show up as cultural belief shifting alongside deeper change with real ease.

2. Mercury trine Saturn

   1.3° applying

   Their thinking and their discipline support each other, giving they a clear, methodical way of working through ideas. People trust their conclusions because they have usually already tested them, often more thoroughly than anyone around they realise.

3. Venus opposition Pluto

   2.1° separating

   They feel a pull between wanting deep intimacy and a fear of losing themselves or their control inside it. Choosing vulnerability gradually, rather than guarding against it, tends to build the very depth Richard is looking for.

4. Venus trine Neptune

   2.1° separating

   Their affections and their imagination flow together beautifully, giving they a naturally romantic, artistic quality in how they love. Compassion and creativity come easily to they, and people around they tend to feel genuinely cared for as a result.
