Kim Stanley Robinson’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he is

   ☉Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

   Built to begin. Says yes before the plan is finished and gets everyone else moving. He needs room to be himself, and any rule that fits too tightly gets broken.

   The Sun square Uranus (wide at 6.9°)

2. What he needs

   ☽Moon in Pisces or Aquarius, the Tide

   Soaks up the feelings around him. Needs gentleness, music and time alone to come back to himself.

   For a birth before 3:39 a.m., his Moon was in Aquarius.

3. How he loves

   ♀Venus in Pisces, the Tender Heart

   Loves selflessly and romantically. Sees the best in people and gives without counting. He loves the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

   Venus trine Uranus (close at 1.1°)

4. How he thinks

   ☿Mercury in Aries, the Spark

   A sharp, impatient mind. Cuts straight to the point and likes a good argument. A probing mind: he gets to the bottom of things, and his words have power when he chooses to use them.

   Mercury trine Pluto (almost exact at 0.5°)

5. What drives him

   ♂Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

   Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. A fierce will: he meets opposition head on, and a fight brings out his full strength.

   Mars square Pluto (close at 1.0°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his identity, his mind and his optimism (the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter) gather in Aries, and that part of life draws his attention first. No earth at all, so the practical, settled side is the one he has to find.
