| Birth data reliability | Reference |
Birth details come from a published reference (source: Web) and have not been checked against a birth record, so the Moon sign is usually right but the Ascendant could differ.
Computed with Swiss Ephemeris (Lahiri ayanamsa). Exact birth time is not publicly recorded, so noon local time was used. The Moon changes Nakshatra about once a day, so the Nakshatra and Ascendant shown may differ if the true birth time is different.
Our library holds 666 Hollywood personalities with a computed Vedic chart from reliable birth data. 49 of them (7%) have the Moon in Virgo, like David Carradine, and 26 (4%) share the Chitra Nakshatra — the #12 most common Moon Nakshatra among Hollywood personalities, where Dhanishta leads with 31 (5%).
For scale, an even spread would put about 3.7% in each of the 27 Nakshatras and 8.3% in each Moon sign. These are simple counts from our dataset, not a prediction.
