Benjamin Harrison’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he was

   ☉Sun in Leo, the Bright One

   Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. He kept redrawing the line between the life he had and the life he imagined.

   The Sun quincunx Neptune (almost exact at 0.1°)

2. What he needed

   ☽Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

   Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely. His feelings ran large: he wanted more comfort, more company and more of everything than any one day gave.

   The Moon opposition Jupiter (close at 2.2°)

3. How he loved

   ♀Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

   Loves tenderly and protectively. Wants closeness, family and a feeling of belonging. Love came with high stakes: intense attachments, and a need to know exactly where he stood.

   Venus square Pluto (almost exact at 0.9°)

4. How he thought

   ☿Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

   Clever, methodical and useful. Turns a muddle into a list and the list into results. His mind and his identity were close together: he spoke as he thought, and his ideas were part of who he was.

   The Sun conjunction Mercury (wide at 4.1°)

5. What drove him

   ♂Mars in Virgo, the Craftsperson

   Diligent and exact. Puts effort into doing a thing properly, step by careful step. Effort and restlessness kept catching each other off guard, and his plans changed at short notice.

   Mars quincunx Uranus (almost exact at 0.4°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his mind, his drive and his discipline (Mercury, Mars and Saturn) gather in Virgo, and that part of life drew his attention first. Most of his planets are in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
