How to recognise natally, if someone is an energy vampire?
Aspects, Planet placements, Heavily influented houses...
I'm not sure this is something you can see from a chart. *smiles*
There's also a matter of definition. "Energy vampire" is thrown around pretty liberally, if you ask me. I use it expressly to mean "someone who drains chi (or whatever you want to call it) from another to augment their own," which is a pretty narrow definition. People also use the term for someone who gets enjoyment out of creating drama amongst others and then watching the fallout or who takes (favors, advice, etc) without giving back.
So how are you defining energy vamp, memento?
I know in synastry, if somebody has an afflicted Pluto conjunct your AC...they will try to sabotage your reputation and make you feel horrible about yourself. Not exactly an energy vampire, per se, but certainly do make it their life's mission to see you destroyed in some way.

In "energy vampires" I meant that type of people, who tries to drain all the energy that someone has.
There must be something to grab on...

Nothing about natal chart placements(transits can't affect for a lifetime)?
I'm not an expert, but I'd have to agree with K@. This seems like it would be more of a synastry thing, since different people have different definitions of who in their lives is a energy vampire. And a synastry chart would show how his planets affect your chart and vice-versa.
@memento: I really don't know about natal. But fieryvirgo brought up a good point about synastry. One could be a heinous person to people at large and with the right synastry, be converted into a purring kitty cat. All lovey and sweet. So yeah. I would look for that. Certain points of contact that could be perceived as a drain. Like Saturn square Moon. Pluto conjunct Chiron (endless wounding) Chiron conjunct Moon. Your Sun in another's 2nd house overlay. Stuff like that. I can't imagine there is a textbook answer but I would start there first and see how this person, in particular, is affecting you.
