Alaric Saltzman: zodiac sign and birth chart
Alaric Saltzman has no canon birthday. The series never gives a date, so his chart is read from his personality. He's a Virgo: the history teacher who researches everything, writes it down and turns out to carry a stake. A Taurus Moon wants a steady home, and Aquarius rising and Mars make him the cool teacher who does it his own way.

NEBO's take
No birthday in canon. His personality says Virgo.
We ran Alaric through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets him most often. It reads him as Virgo first: careful, prepared, and a teacher even when he is not in a classroom.

Virgo studies first and acts second. Alaric spends his free time reading everything he can find about the supernatural.

Taurus Moon craves a steady home. Dating Jenna and sitting at the Gilbert table is the closest he has had to one in years.
- Rising

No birth time in canon. First impression: relaxed, friendly, the teacher you would actually talk to.
- Mercury

Virgo Mercury researches. Weapons, vervain, notes: he doesn't walk into a fight without a file.
- Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeNo clear pick
- Mars
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeAquarius
Aquarius Mars fights on his own rules. He doesn't follow the group's plan, he builds a better one.
What canon does give: a man who comes to town with a mission and a stack of research. Virgo answers that with someone who does his homework before anyone throws a punch.
