Boris Yeltsin’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he was

   ☉Sun in Aquarius, the Free Thinker

   Original, independent and fair. Thinks about how things could work better for everyone. Independence came easily: he did things his own way, and people found it refreshing rather than rude.

   The Sun sextile Uranus (almost exact at 0.7°)

2. What he needed

   ☽Moon in Cancer, the Nest-Maker

   Feels everything and holds on to what matters. Needs a place to come home to and people who stay. Feelings came second to duty: he held himself to a high standard, even in private.

   The Moon opposition Saturn (exact at 0.0°)

3. How he loved

   ♀Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

   Loves freedom, laughter and shared adventures. Wants a partner who is also a travel companion.

4. How he thought

   ☿Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

   Practical, measured and dryly funny. Trusts experience over theory and gets to the point. Serious thoughts: he said less than he knew, and what he said held up.

   Mercury conjunction Saturn (almost exact at 0.5°)

5. What drove him

   ♂Mars in Leo, the Leader

   Full of fire and pride. Works hardest for a cause close to his heart and wants the effort to be seen. He fought hard for what he wanted, and his temper was part of his courage.

   The Sun opposition Mars (wide at 6.3°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his feelings, his optimism and his intensity (the Moon, Jupiter and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life drew his attention first.
