Okay, for fun then: you have Feanor born in 16,680 BC, and I half-remember that LaCE says elvish children are normally born in the spring. Tolkien being Tolkien, I would guess that this was specifically March 25th - the traditional first day of the English year, and of course the day of the destruction of the Ring and the start of the Gondorian year.

On that basis, or another date if it seems appropriate to you, can you calculate Feanor's horoscope, and what does it say about him?
