Ever wondered what DW’s astrological chart would look like? No, can't say I have either. But the random horoscope generator at www.astro.com has produced one for us anyway (along with that of Mussolini, Shirley Bassey, Pee-Wee Herman and umpteen others).

But judging by the inaccuracies in DW’s potted biography alone, I suspect it’s lacking the polish of, say, the auguries Ibrahim Malacou drew up for the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht in They Used Dark Forces.

Having checked an old bookseller's catalogue, I see that there was a single A4 page Birth Chart with no date.
Another item in the same catalogue was an Astrological Chart for another family member dating from 1937 or late 1936, signed F. S. Smith, so that may be a clue.
We know that earlier in the 1930s DW had consulted Henry Dewhirst (who sounds more like a butcher to me), so he would also be a candidate.
But I think the item I'd originally thought of was a longer chart in an auction catalogue.
