Who Johannes Kepler was
His three laws of planetary motion — elliptical orbits, equal areas in equal times, and the relation between period and distance — are the basis on which Newton built gravitation.
He was a court astrologer and made his living casting charts and almanacs; he wrote that astrology was "the foolish daughter of a wise mother" who kept the mother fed. He cast his own natal chart more than once. His mother was tried for witchcraft and he defended her for six years.
No documented birth time exists for this person. Without a time there are no houses, no Ascendant, no Midheaven, and the wheel is not oriented: what you see are the positions by sign, which are correct, and nothing else. An incomplete chart beats an invented Ascendant.
