Asteroid 679 Pax was discovered on January 28, 1909 by August Kopff at Heidelberg, Germany. It has a period of 4 years, 58 days and is about 38 2/5 miles in diameter. Pax was named for the Roman goddess of peace.
Astrologically, Pax indicates pacifism, wanting peace and quiet, not wanting to rock the boat or make waves, conservatism, resistance to change, "stuck in the mud", stultifying conformism.

These indications of Pax are readily observable in Prince Charles, a quiet, introverted, decorous, conservative man who has Pax prominent, conjunct Mars and Jupiter, in the fifth house. He also has it semisextile Pholus; undecimal Pandora; quintile Neptune and Ixion; square Chaos; trine the Moon, Varuna and Hidalgo; and opposite Uranus. Born to be king of England, he has exhibited the role's stiff formality and decorum, staunch conservatism and unsentimental political treatment of relationships, yet he has dealt well with change when it has been forced upon him.
