I ran a couple different "reverse" horoscopes for him in early winter 1961 and as you can see, there are various ways to interpret him. I did tend to place his birth in central/eastern NWT (now Nunavut) because all the places Bob mentions in his journals tend to be eastern Canada/Hudson's Bay, whereas Fraser tends to be western NWT/Yukon when he talks about places.
Version A
for Benton Fraser (male) born on 6 Nov 1961 local time 1:00 pm in Yellowknife, NT (CAN) U.T. 20:00 114w21, 62n27 sid. time 15:25:46
Sun in Scorpio, Moon in Libra
This astrological position suggests harmony between the personality, under the influence of the air sign Libra, and the individuality, influenced by the water sign Scorpio. While you appear easy-going and affable, many of your feelings and thoughts are censored from public view. You tend to act in secrecy in matters most dear to you. Your strongest conscious aim is to secure power and control. In love you have probably chosen a partner who requires a minimum of commitment and loss of self. Here too, however, you are unfulfilled, for your individuality demands intense and complex relationships. However, you will be surrounded by friends, and you should gain by partnership or marriage.
Ascendant in Sagittarius, Jupiter in the First House
At the time of your birth the zodiacal sign of Sagittarius was ascending in the horizon. Its ruler Jupiter is located in the first house.
Sagittarius rising denotes lives which are very dualistic; situations come and go as if divided into two sides - success and failure.
If you are able to raise the interests of your mind from common and trivial things to more profound subjects, your intellect will become very philosophical and attracted by law and peace, and it will be more intuitive than rational. In any case your life will be colored by impulsive and rather stubborn tendencies on your part, creating some inclination to go to extremes.
During the course of your existence you must try to develop intuition and human understanding so that you may be in a position to assist other people with your advice.
Sagittarius gives you a rather strong love of nature and makes you somewhat extroverted, demonstrative and passionate, falling in love frequently and without reservations. You are an intellectual, an intelligent person who has been fortunate enough to be granted also a good development of the emotional functions.
Your romantic life will be intense and varied. Your object of love may find you difficult to understand. In one aspect you will appear as passionate and energetic but because of the mutability of the sign you will also have an opposite tendency that will lead you away from involvement in the love affair and the latter impulse will be caused by a more inner trait, which is personal freedom.
Generally speaking, the sign of Sagittarius will incline you to exist in environments in which your physical body, emotions and thoughts are allowed total freedom for development. On a higher intellectual level you may find yourself inclined to dwell in the deep complexities of philosophy, metaphysics, religion and law. You are versatile enough to study more than one discipline simultaneously not forgetting to keep your body in physical movement, since you require both intellectual and physical exercise.
The general meaning of this position is that any success in life will be achieved through personal effort and merit. There is also a tendency for dignity and respectability caused by your strength of temperament.
You give an impression of spontaneity, frankness, and good disposition. Your temperament is innately honest, truthful, kind and courageous.
