Biography of William Golding


Sir William Gerald Golding (19 September 1911 19 June 1993) was a British novelist, poet
and Nobel Prize for Literature laureate best known for his novel Lord of the Flies. He was
also awarded the Booker Prize for literature in 1980, for his novel Rites of Passage, the first
book of the trilogy To the Ends of the Earth.
Early life
Golding was born at his maternal grandmother's house, 47 Mountwise, St Columb Minor,
Newquay, Cornwall, and he spent many childhood holidays there. He grew up at his family
home in Marlborough, Wiltshire, where his father was a science master at Marlborough
Grammar School (1905 to retirement). Alec Golding was a socialist with a strong
commitment to scientific rationalism, and the young Golding and his elder brother Joseph
attended the school where his father taught (which should not to be confused with
Marlborough College, the "public" boarding school). His mother, Mildred, kept house at 29,
The Green, Marlborough, and supported the moderate campaigners for female suffrage. In
1930 Golding went to Oxford University as an undergraduate at Brasenose College, where he
read Natural Sciences for two years before transferring to English Literature. He took his B.A.
(Hons) Second Class in the summer of 1934, and later that year his first book, Poems, was
published in London by Macmillan & Co, through the help of his Oxford friend, the
anthroposophist Adam Bittleston.
Marriage and family
Golding married Ann Brookfield on 30 September 1940 and they had two children, Judy and
David.
War service
During World War II, Golding fought in the Royal Navy and was briefly involved in the
pursuit and sinking of Germany's mightiest battleship, the Bismarck. He also participated in
the invasion of Normandy on D-Day, commanding a landing ship that fired salvoes of rockets
onto the beaches, and then in a naval action at Walcheren in which 23 out of 24 assault crafts
were sunk. At the war's end he returned to teaching and writing.
Death

In 1985 Golding and his wife moved to Perranarworthal, near Truro, Cornwall, where he died
of heart failure on June 19, 1993. He was buried in the village churchyard at Bowerchalke,
South Wiltshire (near the Hampshire and Dorset county boundaries). He left the draft of a
novel, The Double Tongue, set in ancient Delphi, which was published posthumously.
Career
Writing success
In September 1953 Golding sent the typescript of a book to Faber & Faber of London.
Initially rejected by a reader there, the book was championed by Charles Monteith, then a new
editor at the firm. He asked for various cuts in the text and the novel was published in
September 1954 as Lord of the Flies. It was shortly followed by other novels, including The
Inheritors, Pincher Martin, and Free Fall.
Publishing success made it possible for Golding to resign his teaching post at Bishop
Wordsworth's School in 1961, and he spent that academic year in the United States as writerin-residence at Hollins College near Roanoke, Virginia. Having moved in 1958 from
Salisbury to nearby Bowerchalke, he met his fellow villager and walking companion James
Lovelock. The two discussed Lovelock's hypothesis that the living matter of the planet Earth
functions like a single organism, and Golding suggested naming this hypothesis after Gaia,
the goddess of the earth in Greek mythology.
In 1970 Golding was a candidate for the Chancellorship of the University of Kent at
Canterbury, but lost to the politician and leader of the Liberal Party, Jo Grimond. Golding
won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize in 1979, the Booker Prize in 1980, and in 1983 he
was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 1988.
Fiction
Golding's often allegorical fiction makes broad use of allusions to classical literature,
mythology, and Christian symbolism. No distinct thread unites his novels, and the subject
matter and technique vary. However his novels are often set in closed communities such as
islands, villages, monasteries, groups of hunter-gatherers, ships at sea or a pharaoh's court.
His first novel, Lord of the Flies (1954; film, 1963 and 1990; play, adapted by Nigel Williams,
1995), dealt with an unsuccessful struggle against barbarism and war, thus showing the
ambiguity and fragility of civilization. It has also been said that it is an allegory of World War
II. The Inheritors (1955) looked back into prehistory, advancing the thesis that humankind's
evolutionary ancestors, "the new people" (generally identified with homo sapiens sapiens),
triumphed over a gentler race (generally identified with Neanderthals) as much by violence
and deceit as by natural superiority. The Spire 1964 follows the building (and near collapse)
of a huge spire onto a medieval cathedral church (generally assumed to be Salisbury
Cathedral; the church and the spire itself act as a potent symbols both of the dean's highest
spiritual aspirations and of his worldly vanities. His 1954 novel Pincher Martin concerns the
last moments of a sailor thrown into the north Atlantic after his ship is attacked. The structure
is echoed by that of the later Booker Prize winner by Yann Martel, Life of Pi. The 1967 novel
The Pyramid comprises three separate stories linked by a common setting (a small English
town in the 1920s) and narrator. The Scorpion God (1971) is a volume of three short novels
set in a prehistoric African hunter-gatherer band ('Clonk, Clonk'), an ancient Egyptian court
('The Scorpion God') and the court of a roman emperor ('Envoy Extraordinary'). The last of

these is a reworking of his 1958 play The Brass Butterfly.


Golding's later novels include Darkness Visible (1979), The Paper Men (1984), and the
comic-historical sea trilogy To the Ends of the Earth (BBC TV 2005), comprising the Booker
Prize-winning Rites of Passage (1980), Close Quarters (1987), and Crust Down Below
(1989).
Lord of the Flies
Main article: Lord of the Flies
The key idea of Lord of the Flies (the title was suggested by Golding's friend TS Eliot) is that
people, when removed from civilized society, will devolve and return back to being primitive
creatures. Golding portrays this idea throughout the whole book by using different characters.
The book is about a group of boys who are stranded on a tropical island without any adults. At
first they seem very excited about the situation and vote for one of the boys, Ralph, to be their
leader. Another one of the boys, Jack, leaves the group to form his own tribe, which becomes
more and more violent and obsessed with hunting pigs and the so-called beast that the boys
believe lives on the island. At the end of the book, they try to kill Ralph before they are all
rescued by a naval officer. The title of the book comes from a direct translation of the Latin
word Beelzebub, meaning the devil. Ralph, the main character in the story, is a fair and decent
boy; he is the only boy who will listen to Piggy. Piggy is an overweight boy who is made fun
of by everyone else for being fat and because he wears glasses and suffers from asthma, even
though he is smarter than the rest.
Ralph continually stresses to them the importance of making a signal fire on top of the
mountain, so that any passing ships might see the smoke and come to rescue them. He tells
the boys, "The fire is the most important thing on the island. How can we ever be rescued
except by luck, if we don't keep a fire going?" The rest of the boys become more savage and
are more interested in hunting than keeping the fire going. Eventually even Ralph and Piggy
become savage, if only for a moment. When Simon crawls out from the forest in the dark, the
boys believe he is the beast, and Ralph and Piggy join in as they beat him to death with their
bare hands. (In the book, pages 168-170, it is described. Although it doesn't directly say that
the boys killed Simon.)
Out of all of the boys the one who changes the most on the island is Jack. He was head boy in
his choir, who soon become the hunters, and he is more persistent than Ralph in his desire to
become the chief, saying "I ought to be chief, because I'm chapter chorister and head boy".
Jack also has an unpleasant personality, expressed when saying "Shut up Fatty." to Piggy. Jack
shows his savageness very early on and later develops an even darker personality. While Jack
was at first unable to kill a pig, because of the "knife cutting into living flesh.", he later begins
to enjoy the hunting of the pigs with a spear, and is not at all upset by the deaths of other
boys. When Piggy falls to his death after being knocked off a cliff, Jack screams "That's what
you'll get! I meant that!" In the end everyone but Piggy and Simon, who was killed by Jack's
tribe, are lured to join them either by the knowledge that the hunters would provide them with
meat, or are tortured and bullied into joining them.
The boys are rescued by a British navy officer; he is shocked to discover that these are British
boys that have ended up as savages. If British boys, especially ones as civilised as these, could
turn into wild savages then anyone could. The naval officer emphasises this, saying "I should
have thought that a pack of British boys - you're all British aren't you? - would have been able

to put up a better show than that".

Introduction

Here are some character traits from William Golding's birth chart. This description is far from
being comprehensive but it can shed light on his/her personality, which is still interesting for
professional astrologers or astrology lovers.

In a matter of minutes, you can get at your email address your astrological portrait
(approximately 32 pages), a much more comprehensive report than this portrait of William
Golding.
N.B.: As this celebrity's birth time is unknown, the chart is drawn for 12:00 PM - the legal
time for his/her place of birth; since astrological houses are not taken into account, this
astrological profile excerpt is less detailed than those for which the birth time is known.

The dominant planets of William Golding


When interpreting a natal chart, the best method is to start gradually from general features to
specific ones. Thus, there is usually a plan to be followed, from the overall analysis of the
chart and its structure, to the description of its different character traits.
In the first part, an overall analysis of the chart enables us to figure out the personality's main
features and to emphasize several points that are confirmed or not in the detailed analysis: in
any case, those general traits are taken into account. Human personality is an infinitely
intricate entity and describing it is a complex task. Claiming to rapidly summarize it is
illusory, although it does not mean that it is an impossible challenge. It is essential to read a
natal chart several times in order to absorb all its different meanings and to grasp all this
complexity. But the exercise is worthwhile.
In brief, a natal chart is composed of ten planets: two luminaries, the Sun and the Moon, three
fast-moving or individual planets, Mercury, Venus and Mars, two slow-moving planets,
Jupiter and Saturn, and three very slow-moving planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.
Additional secondary elements are: the Lunar Nodes, the Dark Moon or Lilith, Chiron and
other minor objects. They are all posited on the Zodiac wheel consisting of twelve signs, from
Aries to Pisces, and divided into twelve astrological houses.
The first step is to evaluate the importance of each planet. This is what we call identifying the
dominant planets. This process obeys rules that depend on the astrologer's sensitivity and
experience but it also has precise and steady bases: thus, we can take into account the
parameters of a planet's activity (the number of active aspects a planet forms, the importance
of each aspect according to its nature and its exactness), angularity parameters; (proximity to
the four angles, Ascendant, Midheaven, Descendant and Imum Coeli or Nadir, all of them
being evaluated numerically, according to the kind of angle and the planet-angle distance) and
quality parameters (rulership, exaltation, exile and fall). Finally, other criteria such as the
rulership of the Ascendant and the Midheaven etc. are important.
These different criteria allow a planet to be highlighted and lead to useful conclusions when
interpreting the chart.
The overall chart analysis begins with the observation of three sorts of planetary distributions
in the chart: Eastern or Western hemisphere, Northern or Southern hemisphere, and quadrants
(North-eastern, North-western, South-eastern and South-western). These three distributions
give a general tone in terms of introversion and extraversion, willpower, sociability, and
behavioural predispositions.
Then, there are three additional distributions: elements (called triplicity since there are three
groups of signs for each one) - Fire, Air, Earth and Water - corresponding to a character

typology, modality (or quadruplicity with four groups of signs for each one) - Cardinal, Fixed
and Mutable - and polarity (Yin and Yang).
There are three types of dominants: dominant planets, dominant signs and dominant houses.
The novice thinks astrology means only "to be Aries" or sometimes, for example, "to be Aries
Ascendant Virgo". It is actually far more complex. Although the Sun and the Ascendant alone
may reveal a large part of the character - approximately a third or a half of your psychological
signature, a person is neither "just the Sun" (called the sign) nor just "the first house" (the
Ascendant). Thus, a particular planet's influence may be significantly increased; a particular
sign or house may contain a group of planets that will bring nuances and sometimes weaken
the role of the Ascendant, of the Sun sign etc.
Lastly, there are two other criteria: accentuations (angular, succedent and cadent) which are a
classification of astrological houses and types of decanates that are occupied (each sign is
divided into three decanates of ten degrees each). They provide some additional informations.
These general character traits must not be taken literally; they are, somehow, preparing for the
chart reading. They allow to understand the second part of the analysis, which is more
detailed and precise. It focuses on every area of the personality and provides a synthesis of all
the above-mentioned parameters according to sound hierarchical rules.
Warning: when the birth time is unknown, which is the case for William Golding, a few
paragraphs become irrelevant; distributions in hemispheres and quadrants are meaningless, so
are dominant houses and houses' accentuations. Therefore, some chapters are removed from
this part.
For all paragraphs, the criteria for valuation are calculated without taking into account angles
and rulerships of the Ascendant and of the Midheaven. The methodology retains its validity,
but it is less precise without a time of birth.

Elements, Modalities and Polarities for William Golding

Like the majority of Earth signs, William Golding, you are efficient, concrete and not too
emotional. What matters to you is what you see: you judge the tree by its fruits. Your ideas
keep changing, words disappear, but actions and their consequences are visible and remain.
Express your sensitivity, even if it means revealing your vulnerability. Emotions, energy and
communication must not be neglected; concrete action is meaningless if it is not justified by
your heart, your intellect or your enthusiasm.
The predominance of Water signs indicates high sensitivity and elevation through feelings,
William Golding. Your heart and your emotions are your driving forces, and you can't do
anything on Earth if you don't feel a strong affective charge (as a matter of fact, the word
"feeling" is essential in your psychology). You need to love in order to understand, and to feel
in order to take action, which causes a certain vulnerability which you should fight against.
The twelve zodiacal signs are split up into three groups or modes, called quadruplicities, a
learned word meaning only that these three groups include four signs. The Cardinal, Fixed

and Mutable modes are more or less represented in your natal chart, depending on planets'
positions and importance, and on angles in the twelve signs.

The Mutable mode is the most emphasized one in your natal chart, William Golding, which
indicates a mobile character that is curious and thirsty for new experiences and evolution. You
are lively and flexible, and you like to react quickly to solicitations, but don't confuse mobility
with agitation, since this is the danger with this configuration - and with you, stagnation is out
of the question. Security doesn't matter as long as you are not bored. You optimize, you
change things, you change yourself... all this in a speedy way.
The twelve signs are divided into two polarities, called active or passive, or sometimes
masculine and feminine, positive and negative, Yang and Yin. This classification corresponds
to two quite distinct tonalities, the first one bringing extraversion, action, self-confidence and
dynamism, the second one, introversion, reactivity, reflection and caution. None is superior to
the other, each group has its own assets and shortcomings. Odd signs - Aries, Gemini, Leo,
Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius - belong to the first group, whereas even signs - Taurus,
Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces - belong to the second group.
N.B.: this dominant is a minor one. It is not essential that you read its meaning in the
beginning. You can get back to them later on, once you have read more important
interpretations.

According to the disposition and qualities of your planets and angles, you are rather
influenced by Yin energy, the passive polarity, William Golding: you are quite introverted,
imaginative and sometimes discreet, but you are a deep and wise person who is not content
with just noisy and flashy things. At times, you doubt but you think that those who don't are a
bit... thoughtless. Allow yourself to take more laid-back attitudes and put your reserve aside,
because good equilibrium is always healthier.
Each sign contains 30 degrees and can be divided into three equal parts: the decanates. The
Tradition indicates that specific meanings can be associated to each of the three decanates.
Their sphere of activity is usually limited to the Sun sign, however, it is even more interesting
to observe the distribution of all the planets in the chart to get an idea of the respective
importance of the three decanates, which can complement the description of the personality.
These meanings must be considered with the greatest caution. Indeed, they are minor
characteristics that can only underline other outstanding traits of character.
Traditionally, the first decanate highlights the characteristics of the sign where a planet is
located. The two other decanates correspond to sub-dominant planets, depending on the
nature of each sign. This system leads to a multiplication of meanings and it is impossible to
have a clear understanding: here, we prefer to give only the meaning of one decanate in
comparison with the other two, within the birth chart as a whole. Again, the greatest caution is
needed with regard to this minor indication as it is not always reliable: it is not essential that

you read these texts in the beginning. You can get back to them later on, once you have read
more important interpretations

The second decanate, which means the part between 10 and 20 of any zodiacal sign,
prevails in your natal chart, William Golding: these 10 zodiacal degrees emphasize logical
thought and mental values. Therefore, you may be drawn to some kind of scientific activities,
research, writing or any sort of expression where you have to... think a lot.

Dominants: Planets, Signs and Houses for William Golding


The issue of dominant planets has existed since the mists of time in astrology: how nice it
would be if a person could be described with a few words and one or several planets that
would represent their character, without having to analyse such elements as rulerships,
angularities, houses, etc!
The ten planets - the Sun throughout Pluto - are a bit like ten characters in a role-play, each
one has its own personality, its own way of acting, its own strengths and weaknesses. They
actually represent a classification into ten distinct personalities, and astrologers have always
tried to associate one or several dominant planets to a natal chart as well as dominant signs
and houses.
Indeed, it is quite the same situation with signs and houses. If planets symbolize characters,
signs represent hues - the mental, emotional and physical structures of an individual. The sign
in which a planet is posited is like a character whose features are modified according to the
place where he lives. In a chart, there are usually one, two or three highlighted signs that
allow to rapidly describe its owner.
Regarding astrological houses, the principle is even simpler: the twelve houses correspond to
twelve fields of life, and planets tenanting any given house increase that house's importance
and highlight all relevant life departments: it may be marriage, work, friendship etc.
In your natal chart, William Golding, the ten main planets are distributed as follows:

The three most important planets in your chart are Mercury, Saturn and Uranus.
With Mercury among your dominant planets, you are certainly cerebral, nervous, swift,
curious, quick-witted, and you love to communicate. Your psychological pattern is
intellectual, all the more so since Mercury is important, with its whole set of assets but also of
weaknesses, obviously.
Your sensitivity, emotions, and heart's impulses give precedence to thinking, which can lead
people to believe that you are a playful and witty but heartless person, intellectualizing
situations and juggling with words and numbers whilst ignoring human aspects of things. Of

course, it is said that cats always land on their feet - this is your Mercurian strength and your
trump card!
Your weakness lies in your nervousness, and you may miss your goal because of your "overintellectualization" that may be detrimental to other kind of energies such as instinct,
spontaneity, heart, sensitivity, etc.
Saturn is part of your dominant planets: among the facets of your character, you have a grave
and serious side, wise and somewhat severe, since your concentration can be powerful, to the
detriment of carelessness and friendliness.
You often look austere, but it is only an appearance, a kind of modesty or reserve; however, it
is true that the Saturnian, who is fond of time, effort, asceticism, rigour and sobriety, may
have popularity issues. Nevertheless, honesty and straightforwardness, reliability, as well as
slow, wise and deep mental process, although not very popular and visible qualities,
eventually become noticed and appreciated. Saturnians' second part of life is usually easier
and more fulfilling.
Like the Jupiterian, your Saturnian facet prompts you to seek the essential, security, and
longevity. However, the difference with the former is that you will never give priority to
wealth or "the bigger, the better" philosophy for the sake of power. Saturn, like Jupiter,
symbolizes social integration, and it is usually considered positive to have a harmonic Jupiter
and Saturn in one's chart because of their social adaptation capacities.
Your vulnerability lies in your too serious and austere side, which may lead to unwanted
loneliness and affective frustration. This generally does not last because Saturnians often hide
deep down a golden heart that ends up revealing itself...
Uranus is among your dominant planets: just like Neptune and Pluto, Uranian typology is less
clearly defined than the so-called classical seven planets that are visible to the naked eye,
from the Sun to Saturn. However, it is possible to associate your Uranian nature with a few
clear characteristics: Uranus rhymes with independence, freedom, originality, or even
rebelliousness and marginality, when things go wrong...
Uranus is Mercury's higher octave and as such, he borrows some of its traits of character;
namely, a tendency to intellectualize situations and emotions with affective detachment, or at
least jagged affectivity.
Therefore, you are certainly a passionate man who is on the lookout for any kind of action or
revolutionary idea, and you are keen on new things. Uranians are never predictable, and it is
especially when they are believed to be stable and well settled that... they change everything their life, partner, and job! In fact, you are allergic to any kind of routine, although avoiding it
must give way to many risks.

In your natal chart, the three most important signs - according to criteria mentioned above are in decreasing order of strength Virgo, Leo and Gemini. In general, these signs are
important because your Ascendant or your Sun is located there. But this is not always the

case: there may be a cluster of planets, or a planet may be near an angle other than the
Midheaven or Ascendant. It may also be because two or three planets are considered to be
very active because they form numerous aspects from these signs.
Thus, you display some of the three signs' characteristics, a bit like a superposition of features
on the rest of your chart, and it is all the more so if the sign is emphasized.
Virgo, associated with perfectionism, numbers and reason, is among your dominant signs: you
inherit its sense of responsibility and tidiness, a clear mind, an unfailing logic, as well as a
need to be useful and to fulfil your task to the best of your abilities. Obviously, people may
think that you are too modest or reserved, suspicious or pessimistic because of your
exceedingly critical mind, but aren't logic and wisdom great qualities? Of course, they are.
Moreover, you keep your feet on the ground, you never behave irrationally and you are
helpful and hardworking - what more can you ask for?!
With Leo as a dominant sign, you naturally shine brightly. Your dignity, your sense of honour,
and your generosity can almost turn you into a solar mythological hero, a knight or a lord
from the ancient times. People may blame you for your selfishness, your pride or your
somewhat loud authority, but if you are self-confident, kind-hearted and strong-willed, it
surely makes up for your little flaws, as long as they remain moderate...
With Gemini as a dominant sign, your qualities include being lively, curious, mobile, clever,
and flexible: you often make others dizzy, and you may come across as a dilettante - a bit
inquisitive, shallow, and insensitive because you may be too intellectualizing. However, your
natural curiosity, a nice quality, and your quick humour, allow you to demonstrate to everyone
how much they may gain from your company, and that your apparent flightiness hides an
appetite (particularly mental) for life, which itself conceals a terrific charm!
After this paragraph about dominant planets, of William Golding, here are the character traits
that you must read more carefully than the previous texts since they are very specific: the
texts about dominant planets only give background information about the personality and
remain quite general: they emphasize or, on the contrary, mitigate different particularities or
facets of a personality. A human being is a complex whole and only bodies of texts can
attempt to successfully figure out all the finer points.

Your sensitivity
You seek other people's attention and approval, William Golding, you need to exteriorize your
emotions, to interpret them, and even to dramatically enact them because it is essential for you
to shine at the front of the stage. You always try to achieve more and better than anyone else
and, whatever the situation may be, you strive to remain warm, generous, loyal, honest,
straightforward and courageous. You are always available when your assistance or your
advice is needed and you are glad and proud to help. However, you must be wary not to
overdo, as you may be domineering! You are not indispensable and people might think that
you are self-centered and authoritarian when you handle things with no regard for your
entourage's views. It would be regrettable that you project such an image because it may only
reveal a lack of self-confidence and you are only trying to reassure yourself...

Your intellect and your social life

Your capacities for logic and analysis are very good, William Golding, and you evaluate each
and every aspect of a given situation in objective and critical ways. You are industrious,
methodical, with a lot of nervous energy, you pay attention to details and you may spend lots
of time in intellectual and painstaking works. Although you are articulate, you do not like to
be in the forefront and you prefer to work in team rather than to take initiatives: you feel less
anxious when you know what is exactly expected from you and what you need to do. You
tackle problems with rationalism and you distrust imagination and intuition. You love letters
as much as you love figures. Your caustic humour may destabilize your entourage who may
prefer that you were less demanding and more demonstrative. Please bear in mind that not
everything can be kept under control...

Your affectivity and your seductiveness


In your chart, the Sun and Venus are both in Virgo. With this double membership of Virgo,
your affectivity is clearly selective. More than others, you need to control your affectivity and
the relationship you are involved in. You sort out, you select, you observe, relentlessly, to the
extent that you place yourself and your partner in a pattern where your respective role,
function and raison d'tre are specified. Therefore, it is useless to peddle the virtues of a
current, the benefits of a fashionable way to love or of trendy attitudes. You remain faithful
to your principles. You prefer clarity of relationships to passionate tumults. This is probably
the reason why you are credited with modesty and reserve. It is not that your affectivity is
withdrawn on the contrary, you are sensitive because you are vulnerable. However, you are
distrustful of impulses that may gratuitously destabilize your relationship. You are more
reliable than you are demonstrative, more loyal than exuberant, you fully express yourself
within a couple based on the principle of complementarity: your partner's naturalness and
spontaneity nurture your affectivity, whereas your reliability and your sense of moderation
efficiently protect your couple against life's vagaries. Although it is theoretical, this pattern
allows the emergence of amorous behaviours that are, by nature, too discreet or too timid.
William Golding, inside yourself, feelings are strong and powerful. However, you never show
them before weighing up and considering all the possible consequences of your words and
your actions: fieriness and spontaneousness are toned down because you cannot help
controlling yourself, probably due to your modesty, your discretion or your shyness; you are
frightened because you are so concerned with other people's opinion that you see passion, or
expressing your feelings too quickly, as sources of danger. However, you are helpful, simple,
and you do not fuss around. Reason prevails in your love life but your heart may flare up
when the context is well organized and everyday life is cautiously handled with good sense,
tidiness and cleanliness. Your sensitivity prompts you to avoid excesses and outbursts and this
is how you think that you can achieve happiness without risk.

Your will and your inner motivations


Psychologically speaking, your nature is nervous and secondary. Before you take action, you
cautiously ponder over things and you review any possible alternative and reaction. You strive
systematically to find the best possible response to any given problem. You are a perfectionist
above all and you have no rest until you optimize a situation, in each and every area, be it
professional, pragmatic, aesthetic or in pleasure. You do not accept spontaneity and, to fully
enjoy life and go further, you consider that demanding the best is the least you can do, even
though it is detrimental to the rough force associated with your instinct. The intellectual

element intervenes before both the physical ones and your feelings: it is one of the essential
clues to understanding your personality.
As you are born under this sign, you are cerebral, clear-sighted, focused on details and on
numbers, analytic, serious, competent, reasonable, modest, tidy, organized, spruce,
industrious, provident, honest, loyal, reserved, shy, helpful, willing to progress, talkative,
perfectionist, logical, hardworking, tactful, patient, precise, concrete, spiritual. You can also
be narrow-minded, calculating, irritating, petty, pernickety, hung up, anxious, cold, repressed
or sarcastic.
In love, Sir, your inner self is different from what you seem to be: you are sensual and
affectionate and you find it hard to show it because your nature is to be cautious, reserved and
analytical. You think too much, which gives you a cold and distant look. However, it is a mask
that you wear and take around with you. As soon as you feel in confidence, you become able
to take off the mask and to reveal your true face. You are critical and perfectionist and you
must be cautious enough to keep your comments to yourself, especially in this particular area.
In the fields of sex and affection, real confidence is an imperative pre-requisite. Otherwise, it
is impossible for you to show your true self and to remove the mental screen that proves so
efficient in other areas, but that is very burdensome and inhibiting in the private sphere.
When you manage to do so, you become a charming, sensual and endearing partner and you
communicate easily thanks to Mercury who rules your sign.
You are loyal, organized, conformist, more suited for celibacy. But once you take your
decision, you are quiet and tidy and you will bring up your children according to the best
traditional principles.
Because Virgo is a dual sign, there may be two marriages, or there may be a love affair in
parallel.

Your ability to take action


William Golding, your mental activity is exuberant. Ideas are buzzing at high speed and you
have the ability to think of several different things and to simultaneously process them. You
are less interested in actions on the concrete or physical plane, because once you see a
solution, its implementation is not that important any more since the crucial thing is that your
mind remains bubbling with excitement. You are cerebral and curious and your sexuality is
filled with fantasies, where pleasant ideas are mixed up with amplifying and enriching desires.
Therefore, you are not simple but if your partner follows you, the stake is really worth it.
Verbal jousting, the pleasure to debate and to discuss are continuous, with you. The only
danger is to irritate people who may not have your swiftness or your sense of humour.

Astrological studies describe many of the character traits and they sometimes go deeper into
the understanding of a personality. Please, always keep in mind that human beings are
continuously evolving and that many parts of our psychological structures are likely to be
expressed later, after having undergone significant life's experiences. It is advised to read a
portrait with hindsight in order to appreciate its astrological content. Under this condition, you
will be able to take full advantage of this type of study.
The analysis of an astrological portrait consists in understanding four types of elements which
interact with one another: ten planets, twelve zodiacal signs, twelve houses, and what are
called aspects between planets (the 11 aspects most commonly used are: conjunction,
opposition, square, trine, sextile, quincunx, semi-sextile, sesqui-quadrate, quintile and biquintile. The first 5 aspects enumerated are called major aspects).
Planets represent typologies of our human psychology: sensitivity, affectivity, ability to
undertake, will-power, mental process, aptitude, and taste for communication etc., all
independent character facets are divided here for practical reasons. The twelve signs forming
the space where planets move will "colour", so to speak, these typologies with each planet
being located in its particular sign. They will then enrich the quality of these typologies, as
expressed by the planets. The Zodiac is also divided into twelve astrological houses. This
makes sense only if the birth time is known because within a few minutes, the twelve houses
(including the 1st one, the Ascendant) change significantly. They correspond to twelve
specific spheres of life: external behaviour, material, social and family life, relationship,
home, love life, daily work, partnership, etc. Each planet located in any given house will then
act according to the meaning of its house, and a second colouration again enriches those
active forces that the planets symbolize. Finally, relations will settle among planets, creating a
third structure, which completes the planets' basic meanings. A set of ancient rules, which has
stood the test of experience over hundreds of years (although astrology is in evolution, only
reliable elements are integrated into classical studies), are applied to organize the whole chart
into a hierarchy and to allow your personality to be interpreted by texts. The planets usually
analysed are the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto,
which means two luminaries (the Sun and the Moon) and 8 planets, a total of 10 planets.
Additional secondary elements may be taken into account, such as asteroids Chiron, Vesta,
Pallas, Ceres (especially Chiron, more well-known), the Lunar nodes, the Dark Moon or
Lilith, and even other bodies: astrology is a discipline on the move. Astrological studies,
including astrological portrait, compatibility of couples, predictive work, and horoscopes
evolve and become more accurate or deeper, as time goes by.
Precision: concerning the horoscopes with a known time of birth, according to the Tradition,
we consider that a planet near the beginning (called cuspide) of the next house (less than 2
degrees for the Ascendant and the Midheaven, and less than 1 degree for all other houses)
belongs to this house: our texts and dominants take this rule into account. You can also choose
not to take this shift into account in the form, and also tick the option Koch or Equal houses
system instead of Placidus, the default houses system.
Warning: In order to avoid any confusion and any possible controversy, we want to draw
your attention upon the fact that this sample of celebrities is very complete and therefore, it
also includes undesirable people, since every category is represented: beside artists,
musicians, politicians, lawyers, professional soldiers, poets, writers, singers, explorers,
scientists, academics, religious figures, saints, philosophers, sages, astrologers, mediums,
sportsmen, chess champions, famous victims, historical characters, members of royal families,

models, painters, sculptors, and comics authors or other actual celebrities, there are also
famous murderers, tyrants and dictators, serial-killers, or other characters whose image is very
negative, often rightly so.
Regarding the latter, it must be remembered that even a monster or at least a person who
perpetrated odious crimes, has some human qualities, often noticed by his/her close
entourage: these excerpts come from computer programmes devoid of polemical intentions
and may seem too soft or lenient. The positive side of each personality is deliberately stressed.
Negative sides have been erased here - it is not the same in our comprehensive reports on sale
- because it could hurt the families of such people. We are hoping that it will not rebound on
the victims' side.

Numerology: Birth Path of William Golding


Testimonies to numerology are found in the most ancient civilizations and show that
numerology pre-dates astrology. This discipline considers the name, the surname, and the date
of birth, and ascribes a meaning to alphabetic letters according to the numbers which
symbolise them.
The path of life, based on the date of birth, provides indications on the kind of destiny which
one is meant to experience. It is one of the elements that must reckoned with, along with the
expression number, the active number, the intimacy number, the achievement number, the
hereditary number, the dominant numbers or the lacking numbers, or also the area of
expression, etc.

Your Birth Path:


Your Life Path is influenced by the number 4, William, and your destiny implies sustained
efforts, long-drawn-out works, and concrete achievements. The path may seem a bit tedious,
but it is very promising, provided that you demonstrate some tenacity, loyalty, and patience.
You are often invited to display orderly and methodical qualities, and step-by-step, you go
through all the stages which may lead you to success, if you do not let hurdles dishearten you
throughout your life. Persistence is among your major qualities. You see life as a challenge,
and, far from falling into the trap of picking the easy way out, you face problems with calm
and lucidity, and you choose the work and steady effort which open the door to success,
although evolution requires quite a long time. Your personal path is based on continuous
efforts and on maintaining the same immutable direction.

William Golding was born under the sign of the Pig,


element Metal
Chinese astrology is brought to us as a legacy of age-old wisdom and invites us to develop an
awareness of our inner potential. It is believed that the wise man is not subjected to stellar
influences. However, we must gain the lucidity and the distance without which we remain
locked up in an implacable destiny. According to the legend of the Circle of Animals, Buddha

summoned all the animals to bid them farewell before he left our world. Only twelve species
answered Buddha's call. They form the Chinese Zodiac and symbolize the twelve paths of
wisdom that are still valid nowadays.
The Asian wise man considers that a path is neither good nor bad. One can and must develop
one's potentialities. The first step is to thoroughly know oneself.
You are a reliable and helpful person, honest through and through. Intellectual independence
is an essential virtue: each and everyone must take one's responsibilities and accept the
consequences of one's faults.
You avoid underhand manoeuvres and scheming like the plague! Your unfailing sincerity
commands your entourage's consideration. You fight shams and all forms of hypocrisy.
In addition, you take your responsibilities when you have to, you make your choices and you
confront facts with courage. You are capable of displaying an unwavering determination, no
obstacle can stop you as you try to overcome pitfalls, one after the other. However, you do not
like gratuitous struggles nor meaningless trials of strength: you are of a sociable nature and
you avoid hurting your entourage as much as you can.
However, your kindness can never conceal your true feelings. In China, it is believed that the
native of the Pig is a sensual and voluptuous person, more attached than other people to life's
carnal aspects. A quality that spouses and partners will appreciate, unless they are shocked by
this undeniable inclination for lust! You are credited with the merit of being unable to conceal
your true nature, in all areas.
Chinese astrology has five elements, which are referred to as agents: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal
and Water.
You have a deep affinity with the agent Metal. In China, this element corresponds to the
planet Venus, the white colour and the number 9.
Your nature is individualistic and determined, and you seldom shrink from obstacles. The only
advice that can be given to you is to show more flexibility and diplomacy. Moreover, life's
pitfalls often stimulate you. On the other hand, you are acknowledged for your decisiveness
which commands admiration. You follow your ideas through, discarding external opinions
and viewpoints and you bring your enterprises to a successful conclusion, even if it means
that you go it alone.
Your decisions are so inflexible and your choices, so final, that your intransigence may bring
about a few setbacks. Therefore, it is important that you develop the tolerance that you are
naturally lacking. It is only at this price that you can achieve a harmonious social and intimate
life.
The prevailing features are your persuasion powers, a faith that moves many a mountain and
overcomes the most resistant obstacles. But so many struggles looming...
N. B.: when the birth time is unknown, (12:00 PM (unknown)), these portrait excerpts do not take into account the parameters
derived from the time, which means, the domification (Ascendant, astrological houses, etc.). Nonetheless, these analyses remain
accurate in any case. Regarding the sources of the birth data in our possession, kindly note that the pages we publish constitute a
starting point for more detailed research, even though they seem useful to us. When the sources are contradictory, which occurs

rarely, after having analysed them, we choose the most reliable one. Sometimes, we publish a birth date just because it is made
available, but we do not claim that is it the best one, by no means.
