An archetype only says which kind of energy carries the most weight in the chart. It is a starting point for reading it, not a judgment of the person.

The tightest aspects in Tom Hanks's chart

An aspect is the angle between two planets; the smaller the orb, the more closely their themes are read as bound together. The tightest in this chart:

• Sun trine Mars, orb 0.1°. Sun symbolizes core self, will and vitality; Mars, drive, desire, courage and anger. A trine is usually described as a natural, easy flow of support.
• Saturn square Pluto, orb 0.5°. Saturn symbolizes structure, responsibility, limits and maturity; Pluto, depth, power, transformation and renewal. A square is usually described as friction that also drives.
• Neptune sextile Pluto, orb 0.6°. Neptune symbolizes dreams, imagination, compassion and blurred boundaries; Pluto, depth, power, transformation and renewal. A sextile is usually described as an easy cooperation that rewards a little effort.
• Jupiter sextile Neptune, orb 2.7°. Jupiter symbolizes growth, faith, generosity and meaning; Neptune, dreams, imagination, compassion and blurred boundaries. A sextile is usually described as an easy cooperation that rewards a little effort.

Stelliums and patterns

• Moon, Uranus and Pluto in Leo: three or more planets in one sign make a stellium, and that sign's themes stand out in the chart.
• Sun, Mercury and Venus in the 10th house: the part of life this house covers carries a lot of weight.
