Warren G. Harding’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he was

   ☉Sun in Scorpio, the Detective

   Intense, private and loyal. Wants the real story, not the polite one, and gives all or nothing. Funnier than people expect, and kinder in private than in public. He kept redrawing the line between the life he had and the life he imagined.

   The Sun quincunx Neptune (close at 2.0°)

2. What he needed

   ☽Moon in Taurus or Aries, the Hearth

   Settled by simple, solid comforts: a good meal, a quiet evening, the same people year after year.

   For a birth before 9:50 a.m., his Moon was in Aries.

3. How he loved

   ♀Venus in Libra, the Sweetheart

   Graceful, warm and drawn to harmony. Loves romance, beauty and a true partnership of equals. Affection and the need for control kept getting in each other’s way, and trust took him time.

   Venus quincunx Pluto (almost exact at 0.5°)

4. How he thought

   ☿Mercury in Scorpio, the Investigator

   Searching and sharp. Asks the question nobody else will and keeps the answers close. His words had force: he spoke to persuade, and he kept his own counsel until the right moment.

   Mercury opposition Pluto (wide at 4.5°)

5. What drove him

   ♂Mars in Scorpio, the Strategist

   Intense, strategic and relentless. Keeps a goal close and doesn’t let it go. A fierce will: he met opposition head on, and a fight brought out his full strength.

   Mars opposition Pluto (almost exact at 0.3°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his identity, his mind, his drive and his discipline (the Sun, Mercury, Mars and Saturn) gather in Scorpio, and that part of life drew his attention first. Most of his planets are in water signs: feeling and intuition.
