Astrological Comparison Between Bilbo Baggins and Bulbo Bunkins

Wobbit fan and reviewer The Alchemist has long asked the question "What if Bilbo and Bulbo met in a bar? Any bar, like The Prancing Pony or The Ass-Dragon Inn. If they met, would they get along?


The Alchemist commissioned a study using cutting-edge astrological science to answer that very question, and the results are AMAZING. For the astrological purists out there (Wobbit fan and reviewer Pappy O'Daniel, for one) should be aware that since Bulbo and Bilbo are fictional characters, their fictional birthdates have not been used. Instead, she has used the publication dates of their respective books (September 21, 1937 for Bilbo and May 6, 2011 for Bulbo). This is a widely-respected technique for fictional horoscopes.


The comparison was prepared by the good people at Astrology 3D, Inc. It was written to professional astrological standards. My apologies for any truncation of the following charts.


Enjoy, and keep watching the skies!

Comparison Report for Bilbo and Bulbo



Bulbo's Sun in Taurus and Bilbo's Sun in Virgo

Both of you are practical and down to earth. Bilbo is more precise and more of a perfectionist than Bulbo. Bilbo is also more easily worried and more inconsistent. Bulbo is steadier emotionally than Bilbo is, and Bilbo appreciates Bulbo's consistent nurturing, healing, and soothing qualities. You make very good friends!

Bulbo's Sun Trine Bilbo's Mercury

The mental rapport that you two share is a big reason why you enjoy each other's company and are good friends. Communication is open and harmonious. You work together very well on practical affairs, daily chores, problem-solving, and business activities

Bulbo's Sun Trine Bilbo's Jupiter

The two of you really enjoy each other's company! Bilbo has a great deal of confidence in Bulbo and is able to see Bulbo's best qualities. You are very encouraging and supportive of each other, helping each other to be more confident, open new doors, and advance and grow in both inner and outer ways. This positive note of good will and harmony is also invaluable in helping the two of you overcome differences in temperament and other stressful aspects of your relationship discussed elsewhere in this report.

Bulbo's Sun Conjunct Bilbo's Uranus

You inspire each other to try new things, experiment, and investigate alternatives. You may have met each other, for example, during a time period when both of you were breaking free from traditional values and exploring new possibilities. This is a good relationship for shared creative, innovative activities. You inspire each other, and have good times together, but you also find that commitments or contracts with each other are difficult to adhere to over time. This relationship works well as long as you don't make too many demands on each other

Bulbo's Sun Trine Bilbo's Neptune

The two of you have a strong intuitive understanding of each other, and you inspire each other's imagination, idealism, and aspirations. You help each other to become clearer about your ideals and religious inclinations, and together you develop a greater sense of meaning and purpose in your lives. You help each other to look beyond the daily problems and issues of your personal lives and focus more on altruistic goals and broader issues

Bilbo's Sun Square Bulbo's Moon

The distinct differences in your temperaments inclines you to periods of personality clashes and misunderstandings. In particular, Bulbo often feels that Bilbo does not sympathize enough or try to really understand Bulbo's feelings. Both of you will have to understand and respect your differences, and make a concerted effort to harmonize your very different temperaments.

Bulbo's Moon Sextile Bilbo's Venus

There is a great deal of warmth and kindness in this relationship. You do not hesitate to assist each other and you feel like family even if you are not biologically related

Bulbo's Moon Opposite Bilbo's Mars

Both of you get into an energetic mood when you are together. If you share an interest in the same sport (for example tennis or golf) you will enjoy competing against each other. However, you easily become impatient with each other and easily provoke each other's anger and hostility. You will need to be careful to avoid becoming adversaries.



Composite Report for Bilbo and Bulbo





Sun in Cancer

The longer both of you stay together, the stronger your emotional dependency grows. You enjoy being supportive of one another. This is a warm, protective and deeply caring relationship. You are capable of extreme closeness 

Moon in Taurus

Your sense of emotional security in this relationship must be absolute. You like to feel that you possess each other. You're very good at pleasing each other on a sensual level. Stubborn attitudes may prolong your disagreements 

Ascendant in Libra

You are an attractive couple. You love to socialize and people enjoy your company. You know how to charm. The two of you project an image of elegance and fine taste and you endeavor to surround yourselves with beauty. 

Sun Sesquiquadrate Jupiter

One of the purposes of your friendship is to inspire each other to aim higher, to do bigger things, to see much more of the world, and to expand your sense of what is possible. The energy generated when you are together inclines you to do things on a grand scale, and to constantly strive to expand, grow, and improve your lives.
Inner growth and spiritual or psychological development are enhanced when you are together. Higher ideals, religion, philosophy, and the big questions of life will become a focus of your relationship, even if neither of you is especially oriented toward these subjects. There may well be differences and friction over these topics, but you both will learn about your own faith and beliefs via your friendship 

Sun Square Uranus

Your friendship may or may not be long lasting, but it will always have a flavor of unpredictability, spontaneity, and surprise. Periodic unexpected events and changes create an unsettled feeling between you, as if you can never quite relax. However, you will never be bored with one another either.
You are destined to act as "awakeners" for one another. One of you may open the other to something totally new and different, even shocking, which revolutionizes the way you view the world and your place in it - something you may once have considered weird or too "far out". Always there will be the element of experimentation, of following the unexpected twist in the road. Being with one another encourages you both to be more free, unconventional, and impulsive than you might be otherwise 

Moon Semisquare Mercury

Inevitably your communications with one another will be strongly colored by emotion, emotional prejudice and bias, and subjective elements, all of which often interfere with rational discussion. Part of the purpose of your relationship, in fact, has to do with examining your feelings, coming to understand them, and becoming aware of some of your basic assumptions and habitual beliefs which you may have never questioned before. Discussing your differences of opinion about these issues will enable you both to understand your roots, as well as your prejudices. If you can respect one another's opinions and preferences, rather than get defensive, you'll find that you can tell one another very personal details of your lives, and end up being very close friends as a result.

A Long Expected Brunch, Part 3: The Arrival Of Pantsoff (from The Superfriends Of The Ring)


Days past and The Day Of Bulbo Bunkins' Party drew near, whether young Promo Bunkins liked it or not. An odd-looking waggon (you or I would call it a “wagon”) laden with odd-looking packages and paraphernalia toiled up the hill to Bulbo’s condo in the Bug End neighborhood of Wobbiton. It was being driven by an odd-looking old man, not a wobbit. He wore immense black wing-tip boots and an unnecessary, affected scarf. He had a long, bushy moustache that stuck out beyond the brim of his hat. Many wobbits believed it to be nose hair. The bundles, the cart, and even the horse were each labeled with a large red P.

That was Pantsoff’s mark, of course, and it was Pantsoff the Wizard driving the cart. Years as a contractor had made him keenly aware of the business value of Branding, so he put his mark on everything, even things that weren’t his. He was famous in Wobbiton for his fireworks, as well as the fires and smokes that often resulted from them. Pantsoff dabbled in project management during the off-season, and in wizardry on a cash-only basis. As the waggon rolled past, some young wobbit toughs shouted after him “What’s the ‘P’ stand for, old man? P as in…” Pantsoff quickly turned and silenced them by flipping a promotional P-rune beverage coaster at their leader’s head.

“Run away now, you little punks!” said Pantsoff. “There’s more where that came from, and I’m not afraid to use it!”
